Nonlinear speech processing: Overview and applications (2002)
Journal Article
Faúndez-Zanuy, M., McLaughlin, S., Esposito, A., Hussain, A., Schoentgen, J., Kubin, G., Kleijn, W. B., & Maragos, P. (2002). Nonlinear speech processing: Overview and applications. Control and Intelligent Systems, 30, 1-10

This article presents an overview of various nonlinear processing techniques applied to speech signals. Evidence relating to the existence of nonlinearities in speech is presented, and the main differences between linear and nonlinear analysis are su...

Higher-order statistics-based nonlinear speech analysis (2002)
Journal Article
Soraghan, J. J., Hussain, A., Alkulabi, A., & Durrani, T. (2002). Higher-order statistics-based nonlinear speech analysis. Control and Intelligent Systems, 30, 11-18

A fast and robust three-level binary higher order statistics (HOS) based algorithm for simultaneous voiced/unvoiced detection and pitch estimation of speech signals in coloured noise environments with low SNR is presented. The use of the three-level... Read More about Higher-order statistics-based nonlinear speech analysis.

Laying the foundations: the use of video footage to explore pedestrian dynamics in PEDFLOW (2002)
Book Chapter
Willis, A., Kukla, R., Kerridge, J., & Hine, J. (2002). Laying the foundations: the use of video footage to explore pedestrian dynamics in PEDFLOW. In M. Schreckenberg, & S. Sharma (Eds.), Pedestrian and Evacuation Dynamics (181-186). Springer

This paper is concerned with how video footage of pedestrian activity in various urban environments can be used to inform the development of PEDFLOW - a microscopic, agent-based model of pedestrian flow that can be used to simulate the effects of an...

A pattern-based framework for database reusability (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wang, B., Liu, X., & Kerridge, J. (2002, June). A pattern-based framework for database reusability. Presented at International Conference on Software Engineering Research and Practice (SERP'02)

The development of database application systems will benefit from high reusability because similar design circumstances recur frequently in database developments. This paper presents a framework to cope with design reuse in database environments. The... Read More about A pattern-based framework for database reusability.

An Affordance-based Framework for CVE Evaluation (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Turner, P., & Turner, S. (2002, December). An Affordance-based Framework for CVE Evaluation. Presented at Human computer interaction (Annual conference) 2002, London, England

We argue that a conceptual framework is required to support the
practical evaluation of collaborative virtual environments. We propose
such a framework based on an extended, three level concept of
affordance. The application of the framework is il... Read More about An Affordance-based Framework for CVE Evaluation.

Contextual grounding in CVE design. (2002)
Journal Article
Turner, P., & Turner, S. (2002). Contextual grounding in CVE design. Presence: Teleoperators and Virtual Environments, 14, 30-38

A proper respect for eventual context of use is crucially important for the success of virtual
environments destined for real-world organisations, yet is frequently absent from accounts of the
design of such applications. We describe how contextual... Read More about Contextual grounding in CVE design..
