Simplifying large-scale communication networks with weights and cycles
(2010)
A communication network is a complex network designed to transfer information from a
source to a destination. One of the most important property in a communication network is
the existence of alternative routes between ...
Modelling Incremental Self-Repair Processing in Dialogue.
(Queen Mary University of London, 2014-11)
Self-repairs, where speakers repeat themselves, reformulate or restart what they are saying, are
pervasive in human dialogue. These phenomena provide a window into real-time human language
processing. For explanatory ...
Resilient and Efficient Delivery over Message Oriented Middleware.
(Queen Mary University of London, 2014-09)
The publish/subscribe paradigm is used to support a many-to-many model that allows an efficient dissemination of messages across a distributed system. Message Oriented Middleware (MOM) is a middleware that provides an ...
The Effect of Audio Cues and Sound Source Stimuli on Looming Perception.
(Queen Mary University of London, 2015-01)
Objects that move in depth (looming) are ubiquitous in the real and virtual worlds. How
humans interact and respond to these approaching objects may affect their continued
survival in both the real and virtual words, and ...
Selectivity and Adaptation in the Human Auditory System.
(Queen Mary University of London, 2014-03)
Two fundamental principles dominate the signal processing of
the auditory system: selectivity and adaptation. The response of
the auditory system is selective for various acoustic features and
the representation of these ...
Semantic Audio Analysis Utilities and Applications.
(Queen Mary University of London, 2012-04)
Extraction, representation, organisation and application of metadata about audio recordings
are in the concern of semantic audio analysis. Our broad interpretation, aligned with recent
developments in the field, includes ...
New Techniques for Learning Parameters in Bayesian Networks.
(Queen Mary University of London, 2015-08)
One of the hardest challenges in building a realistic Bayesian network (BN) model is
to construct the node probability tables (NPTs). Even with a fixed predefined model
structure and very large amounts of relevant data, ...
Resource Allocation Schemes for Multiuser Wireless Communication Systems Powered by Renewable Energy Sources
(Queen Mary University of London, 2015-10-12)
In the future cyber-physical systems, such as smart grids, a large amount of sensors will
be distributively deployed in di erent locations throughout the systems for the purpose
of monitoring and control. Conventionally, ...
Cross-Layer QoE Improvement with Dynamic Spectrum Allocation in OFDM-Based Cognitive Radio.
(Queen Mary University of London, 2014-03)
Rapid development of devices and applications results in dramatic
growth of wireless tra c, which leads to increasing demand on wire-
less spectrum resources. Current spectrum resource allocation pol-
icy causes low e ...
Real-world Human Re-identification: Attributes and Beyond.
(Queen Mary University of London, 2015-09-06)
Surveillance systems capable of performing a diverse range of tasks that support human intelligence
and analytical efforts are becoming widespread and crucial due to increasing threats
upon national infrastructure and ...
