A comparative study of integrated ferroelectric polymer pyroelectric sensors (1998)
Journal Article
Setiadi, D., Binnie, D., Armitage, A., Benjamin, K., & Weller, H. (1998). A comparative study of integrated ferroelectric polymer pyroelectric sensors. Integrated Ferroelectrics, 19(1-4), 33-47. https://doi.org/10.1080/10584589808012694

This paper presents a comparative study of integrated pyroelectric sensors based on ferroelectric polymers. Two deposition technologies of PVDF and VDF/TrFE copolymer, both compatible with IC manufacturing, are presented. A 9 μm PVDF film is bonded o...

Infrared sensing using pyroelectric polymers (1997)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Armitage, A., Benjamin, K., Setiadi, D., Weller, H., & Binnie, D. (1997). Infrared sensing using pyroelectric polymers. In A. T. Augousti, & N. M. White (Eds.), Sensors & their Applications VIII (297-302)

This paper describes a programme of work intended to develop inexpensive infrared imagers. The technology is based on the pyroelectric effect in the polymer PVDF, and a copolymer of VDF and TrFE. Early work used films of the polymer on simple cerami... Read More about Infrared sensing using pyroelectric polymers.

An integrated charge amplifier for a pyroelectric sensor. (1997)
Journal Article
Setiadi, D., Armitage, A., Binnie, D., Regtien, P., & Sarro, P. (1997). An integrated charge amplifier for a pyroelectric sensor. Sensors and Actuators A: Physical, 61, 421-426. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0924-4247%2897%2980299-3

This paper presents an integrated charge amplifier that measures a small charge. This charge is generated by a pyroelectric detector. The charge amplifier consists of a single-stage c-annon source configuration with a passive feedback network. The ch... Read More about An integrated charge amplifier for a pyroelectric sensor..

An Investigation into the improvement of Local Minima of the Hopfield Network (1996)
Journal Article
Peng, M., Gupta, N. K., & Armitage, A. (1996). An Investigation into the improvement of Local Minima of the Hopfield Network. Neural Networks, 9(7), 1241-1253. https://doi.org/10.1016/0893-6080%2896%2900017-2

The paper investigates the improvement of local minima of the Hopfield network. A local minima escape algorithm (LME algorithm), is proposed for improving local minima of small-scale networks. Experiments on travelling salesman problems (TSP) show th... Read More about An Investigation into the improvement of Local Minima of the Hopfield Network.

Neural networks in measurement and control (1995)
Journal Article
Armitage, A. (1995). Neural networks in measurement and control. Measurement and Control, 28(7), 208-215. https://doi.org/10.1177/002029409502800703

A brief overview of neural network is presented. Neural networks have certainly made an impact, and it is now at the stage of getting past the initial hype to see the sort of tasks that neural network are really suited to. There is no doubt that neur... Read More about Neural networks in measurement and control.
