Sonification of Planetary Orbits in Asteroid Belts (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Quinton, M., Mcgregor, I., & Benyon, D. (2021). Sonification of Planetary Orbits in Asteroid Belts. In AM '21: Proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Audio Mostly (72-80). https://doi.org/10.1145/3478384.3478390

This study investigates the design and evaluation of a sonification designed to detect any planets orbiting within an asteroid belt of an exosolar system. The interface was designed for an astronomer who studies this phenomenon. User centered design... Read More about Sonification of Planetary Orbits in Asteroid Belts.

Modelling Individual Preferences to Study and Predict Effects of Traffic Policies (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Nguyen, J., Powers, S., Urquhart, N., Farrenkopf, T., & Guckert, M. (2021, October). Modelling Individual Preferences to Study and Predict Effects of Traffic Policies. Presented at PAAMS: International Conference on Practical Applications of Agents and Multi-Agent Systems, Salamanca, Spain

Traffic can be viewed as a complex adaptive system in which systemic patterns arise as emergent phenomena. Global behaviour is a result of behavioural patterns of a large set of individual travellers. However, available traffic simulation models lack...

Using AGADE Traffic to Analyse Purpose-driven Travel Behaviour (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Nguyen, J., Powers, S. T., Urquhart, N., Farrenkopf, T., & Guckert, M. (2021, October). Using AGADE Traffic to Analyse Purpose-driven Travel Behaviour. Presented at PAAMS: International Conference on Practical Applications of Agents and Multi-Agent Systems, Salamanca, Spain

AGADE Traffic is an agent-based traffic simulator that can be used to analyse purpose-driven travel behaviour of individuals that leads to the emergence of systemic patterns in mobility. The simulator uses semantic technology to model knowledge of in... Read More about Using AGADE Traffic to Analyse Purpose-driven Travel Behaviour.

Identifying Roles, Requirements and Responsibilities in Trustworthy AI Systems (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barclay, I., & Abramson, W. (2021, September). Identifying Roles, Requirements and Responsibilities in Trustworthy AI Systems. Presented at UbiComp '21: The 2021 ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing, Online

Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are being deployed around the globe in critical fields such as healthcare and education. In some cases, expert practitioners in these domains are being tasked with introducing or using such systems, but have littl...

Interactivity in Linear Diagrams (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chapman, P. (2021, September). Interactivity in Linear Diagrams. Presented at Diagrams: International Conference on Theory and Application of Diagrams, Online

Linear diagrams have been shown to be an effective method for representing set-based data. Moreover, design principles have been empirically developed that, when followed, improve the efficacy of linear diagrams. These principles are task-independent...

A Decentralised Authentication and Access Control Mechanism for Medical Wearable Sensors Data (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abubakar, M., Jaroucheh, Z., Al Dubai, A., & Buchanan, W. J. (2021, August). A Decentralised Authentication and Access Control Mechanism for Medical Wearable Sensors Data. Presented at 2021 IEEE International Conference on Omni-Layer Intelligent Systems (COINS), Barcelona, Spain

Recent years have seen an increase in medical big data, which can be attributed to a paradigm shift experienced in medical data sharing induced by the growth of medical technology and the Internet of Things. The evidence of this potential has been pr... Read More about A Decentralised Authentication and Access Control Mechanism for Medical Wearable Sensors Data.

Launching Adversarial Label Contamination Attacks Against Malicious URL Detection (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marchand, B., Pitropakis, N., Buchanan, W. J., & Lambrinoudakis, C. (2021, September). Launching Adversarial Label Contamination Attacks Against Malicious URL Detection. Presented at TrustBus 2021: Trust, Privacy and Security in Digital Business, Online

Web addresses, or Uniform Resource Locators (URLs), represent a vector by which attackers are able to deliver a multitude of unwanted and potentially harmful effects to users through malicious software. The ability to detect and block access to such... Read More about Launching Adversarial Label Contamination Attacks Against Malicious URL Detection.

OTTers: One-turn Topic Transitions for Open-Domain Dialogue (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sevegnani, K., Howcroft, D. M., Konstas, I., & Rieser, V. (2021, August). OTTers: One-turn Topic Transitions for Open-Domain Dialogue. Presented at 59th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics and the 11th International Joint Conference on Natural Language Processing, Online

Mixed initiative in open-domain dialogue requires a system to pro-actively introduce new topics. The one-turn topic transition task explores how a system connects two topics in a cooperative and coherent manner. The goal of the task is to generate a...
