Auditing best practice for effective product innovation management
(Science Direct, 2004-10)Over the past number of years, researchers and industrialists have recognised the need for and the importance of developing approaches to enhance competitive advantage in new product development. However, the product ... -
Automated in-camera detection of flasheye defects
(IEEE, 2005)This paper examines the problem of performing automated real-time detection of flash eye defects (redeye) in the firmware of a digital camera. Several different algorithms are compared, timing and memory requirements ... -
Automated sorting of consumer image collections using face and peripheral region image classifiers
(IEEE, 2005)An evaluation of techniques and recognition technologies for use in an automatic cataloging tool for consumer image collections is presented. A working implementation of an automatic cataloging tool and user search tools ... -
Automatic indexing of consumer image collections using person recognition techniques
(IEEE, 2005-01-08)An evaluation of person recognition technologies for use in an automatic cataloging tool for consumer image collections is presented. Prototype implementations of the automatic cataloging tool and user search tools are ... -
The Automatic Morphological Description and Classification of Archaeological Monuments from Vertical Aerial Photographs.
(OESI/IMVIP, 1998)For most of this century, aerial photography has been an important technique for the discovery, recording and analysis of archaeological sites. For many regions there are vast archives of aerial photographs available; ... -
Barriers to FLOSS in SMEs: the lack of knowledge and skills
(IOS Press, 2005)While open source is becoming a topic of mainstream business, the level of awareness and depth of understanding of the open source paradigm still varies considerably and represents a significant barrier to broader adoption. ... -
Bayesian ANN Classifier for ECG Arrhythmia Diagnostic System: A Comparison Study
(2005)Abstract¿This paper outlines a system for detection of cardiac arrhythmias within ECG signals, based on a Bayesian Artificial Neural Network (ANN) classifier. The Bayesian (or Probabilistic) ANN Classifier is built by the ... -
Behaviour of hybrid concrete lattice girder flat slab system using insitu structural health monitoring
(NUI Galway, 2016-08-29)In recent decades, Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) has emerged as an increasingly important tool in Civil Engineering to understand how structures behave during construction and operation. Although SHM is not a new ... -
Behaviour of tubular steel members under cyclic axial loading
(2006)This paper examines the cyclic performance of axially-loaded tubular members used as bracing elements to provide lateral seismic resistance in steel framed structures. An experimental study into the response of members ... -
Beyond stream processing??? A distributed vision architecture for the Internet of Things
(IEEE, 2016)An ‘edge-based’ image processing architecture for the internet of things (IoT) is devised, drawing on the existing image processing pipelines that are implemented in today’s imaging modules in digital cameras and ... -
Biaxial loading of offshore monopiles: numerical modelling
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016-05-18)In this study, finite-element (FE) modeling was used to examine the influence of biaxial lateral loading of a monopile foundation. Two different soil models were adopted to investigate the influence of state-dependent and ... -
Bioaccumulation of metals in ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) following the application of lime stabilised, thermally dried and anaerobically digested sewage sludge.
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2016-05-09)The uptake and accumulation of metals in plants is a potential pathway for the transfer of environmental contaminants in the food chain, and poses potential health and environmental risks. In light of increased population ... -
A Biomaterial Approach to Peripheral Nerve Regeneration: Bridging the Peripheral Nerve Gap and Enhancing Functional Recovery
(The Royal Society, 2011-11)Microsurgical techniques for the treatment of large peripheral nerve injuries (such as the gold standard autograft) and its main clinically approved alternative 'hollow nerve guidance conduits (NGCs)' have a number of ... -
Biometric access control for digital media streams in home networks
(IEEE, 2007)Methods for controlling access to digital media content in the home environment using biometric sensing techniques are described. A wireless rebroadcast system for IP-TV content was retrofitted with a combination of ... -
Biometric technology and smartphones: a consideration of the practicalities of a broad adoption of biometrics and the likely impacts
(IEEE, 2016-04)The Widespread Global Adoption of Smartphones across all demographics and the rapid commoditization of the technology to the point at which an entry-level device can be sold profitably for less than US$100 suggest that we ... -
Biometrically auditable public key infrastructure technology for secure multimedia content
(IEEE, 2005-05-16)A system for signing and tracing the use of digital content based on biometrically generated key-pairs is described. The system is designed to protect the fair use rights of end-users and can be readily incorporated into ... -
Biometrics and Consumer Electronics: A Brave New World or the Road to Dystopia?[Soapbox]
(IEEE, 2013-04)Biometric systems confirm a person's identity by extracting and comparing patterns in their physical characteristics against computer records of those patterns. Examples include scans of the face, iris, or retina; measurements ... -
Biomodels of bone: a review
(Springer, 2005)In this paper, a definition of a biomodel is presented, based on which different specific types of biomodels are identified, viz., virtual biomodels, computational biomodels, and physical biomodels. The paper then focuses ... -
