An investigation of the variation of dielectric properties of ovine lung tissue with temperature
(IOP Publishing, 2019-06-24)Presently, lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths. Microwave thermal ablation is commonly used for the treatment of lung cancer. During microwave ablation treatment, changing temperatures (up to 100 °C) cause ... -
Iris authentication in handheld devices - considerations for constraint-free acquisition
(IEEE, 2015-05)As a near ideal biometric, iris authentication is widely used and mobile acquisition techniques are known. But iris acquisition on handheld imaging devices, such as smartphones, poses multiple, unique challenges. In this ... -
Iris liveness detection for next generation smartphones
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2016-07-19)This paper presents a novel liveness detection method that exploits the acquisition workflow for iris biometrics on smartphones using a hybrid visible (RGB)/near infra-red (NIR) sensor. These devices are able to capture ... -
Iris recognition on consumer devices - challenges and progress
(IEEE, 2015-11-11)This article outlines various technical, social and ethical challenges in implementing and widely adopting iris recognition technology on consumer devices such as smartphone or tablets. Acquisition of sufficient quality ... -

(IEEE, 2016-01-01)Welcome to another CES show issue of IEEE Conumer Electronics Magazine. This issue is aligned with the International CES held in Las Vegas, a global meeting for the consumer electronics (CE) industry where you can view the ... -
The KEYSTONE IC1302 COST Action
(Springer International Publishing, 2018)As more and more data becomes available on the Web, as its complexity increases and as the Web’s user base shifts towards a more general non-technical population, keyword searching is becoming a valuable alternative to ... -
Latent space mapping for generation of object elements with corresponding data annotation
(Elsevier, 2018-10-25)Deep neural generative models such as Variational Auto-Encoders (VAE) and Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) give promising results in estimating the data distribution across a range of machine learning fields of ... -
Leveraging social media and IoT to bootstrap smart environments
(Springer International Publishing, 2014-03-12)As we move towards an era of Smart Environments, mixed technological and social solutions must be examined to continue to allow users some control over their environment. Realisations of Smart Environments such as Smart ... -
A Lexicon of Patent Jargon [IP Corner]
(2014)Often when I am doing work related to patents and IP, I find myself talking a different language. It is a strange legal dialect that patent lawyers have developed over many years. Now while its original purpose was ... -
Managing Digital Image Collections from your TV-Set: A State-of-Art Review
(IEEE, 2007-07-14)The problem of managing growing digital image collections is discussed in the context of a home user. The use of a conventional television set as both a viewing and management tool is discussed. The problem of linking ... -
Managing Resources for Better Behaved Robots
(2006)This paper presents an architecture based on features of the QNX real-time operating system (RTOS) that translate directly into aspects of a behaviour-based robotic model.Significant research effort has been expended on ... -
Mapping home-network appliances to TCP/IP sockets using a three-tiered home gateway architecture
(IEEE, 1998)A three-tier gateway architecture for internetworking between home automation networks and a TCP/IP based wide area network, such as the internet, is described. The architecture abstracts the ... -
A Matter of Timing: Consumer Electronics & Network Time
(IEEE, 2013-10)Network time protocol (NTP) has become widely used across the Internet to synchronize clocks on computers and, more recently, on a wide variety of handheld devices. You are using NTP on a daily basis without even knowing ... -
