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...

Towards a Declarative Approach to Constructing Dialogue Games (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Snaith, M., & Wells, S. (2021). Towards a Declarative Approach to Constructing Dialogue Games. In Proceedings of the 21st Workshop on Computational Models of Natural Argument (9-18)

In this paper we sketch a new approach to the development of dialogue games that builds upon the knowledge gained from several decades of dialogue game research across a variety of communities and which leverages the capabilities of the Dialogue Game...

Dot-to-Dot: Pre-Reading Assessment of Literacy Risk via a Visual-Motor Mechanism on Touchscreen Devices (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Park, W., Reves, P., Esteves, A., Kerridge, J. M., Yim, D., & Oh, U. (2021, August). Dot-to-Dot: Pre-Reading Assessment of Literacy Risk via a Visual-Motor Mechanism on Touchscreen Devices. Presented at INTERACT 2021: 18th IFIP TC13 International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, Bari, Italy [Online]

While early identification of children with dyslexia is crucial, it is difficult to assess literacy risks of these children early on before they learn to read. In this study, we expand early work on Dot-to-Dot (DtD), a non-linguistic visual-motor mec...

Doing Magic with Metadata (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Haynes, D. (2021, August). Doing Magic with Metadata. Presented at ISKO Singapore monthly meeting, Singapore

In this talk David Haynes looks at ways in which metadata can be used to improve the management of information resources. He discusses the practical applications of metadata in six main areas: Information resource identification and description In... Read More about Doing Magic with Metadata.

A Neural Approach to Generation of Constructive Heuristics (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Alissa, M., Sim, K., & Hart, E. (2021, June). A Neural Approach to Generation of Constructive Heuristics. Presented at IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation 2021, Kraków, Poland (online)

Both algorithm-selection methods and hyper-heuristic methods rely on a pool of complementary heuristics. Improving the pool with new heuristics can improve performance, however, designing new heuristics can be challenging. Methods such as genetic pro...
