Computer Anxiety and the Big Five (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Crabbe, S. J., & Andras, P. (2012). Computer Anxiety and the Big Five. In PPIG 2012 - 24th Annual Workshop (12)

This paper explores the relationship between personality traits, as described by the Big Five Factors model, and the likelihood of someone suffering from computer anxiety. The research sample was a cohort of Business School Undergraduates. It was fou... Read More about Computer Anxiety and the Big Five.

Tackling the sheer scale of subjective QoE (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Menkovski, V., Exarchakos, G., & Liotta, A. (2012). Tackling the sheer scale of subjective QoE. In Mobile Multimedia Communications (1-15). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-30419-4_1

Maximum Likelihood Difference Scaling (MLDS) used as a method for subjective assessment of video quality alleviates the inconveniencies associated with high variation and biases common in rating methods. However, the number of tests in a MLDS study r... Read More about Tackling the sheer scale of subjective QoE.

Towards a Chinese common and common sense knowledge base for sentiment analysis (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Cambria, E., Hussain, A., Durrani, T., & Zhang, J. (2012, June). Towards a Chinese common and common sense knowledge base for sentiment analysis. Presented at 25th International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Other Applications of Applied Intelligent Systems, IEA/AIE 2012, Dalian, China

To date, the majority of sentiment analysis research has focused on English language. Recent studies, however, show that non-native English speakers heavily support the growing use of Internet. Chinese, specifically, is poised to outpace English as t... Read More about Towards a Chinese common and common sense knowledge base for sentiment analysis.

Towards IMACA: Intelligent multimodal affective conversational agent (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hussain, A., Cambria, E., Mazzocco, T., Grassi, M., Wang, Q., & Durrani, T. (2012, November). Towards IMACA: Intelligent multimodal affective conversational agent. Presented at International Conference on Neural Information Processing: ICONIP 2012, Doha, Qatar

A key aspect when trying to achieve natural interaction in machines is multimodality. Besides verbal communication, in fact, humans interact also through many other channels, e.g., facial expressions, gestures, eye contact, posture, and voice tone. S...

The use of ASM feature extraction and machine learning for the discrimination of members of the fish ectoparasite genus gyrodactylus (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ali, R., Hussain, A., Bron, J. E., & Shinn, A. P. (2012, November). The use of ASM feature extraction and machine learning for the discrimination of members of the fish ectoparasite genus gyrodactylus. Presented at ICONIP 2012: 19th International Conference on Neural Information Processing, Doha, Qatar

Active Shape Models (ASM) are applied to the attachment hooks of several species of Gyrodactylus, including the notifiable pathogen G. salaris, to classify each species to their true species type. ASM is used as a feature extraction tool to select in...
