Hyper-heuristics. (2005)
Book Chapter
Ross, P. (2005). Hyper-heuristics. In E. Burke, & G. Kendall (Eds.), Search Methodologies: Introductory Tutorials in Optimization and Decision Support Techniques (529-556). Springer-Verlag

This chapter introduces and overviews an emerging methodology in search and optimisation. One of the key aims of these new approaches, which have been termed hyper-heuristics, is to raise the level of generality at which optimisation systems can oper... Read More about Hyper-heuristics..

A comparison of continuous wavelet transform and modulus maxima analysis of characteristic ECG features. (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Romero Legarreta, I., Addison, P., Grubb, N. R., Clegg, G. R., Robertson, C. E., & Watson, J. N. (2005). A comparison of continuous wavelet transform and modulus maxima analysis of characteristic ECG features. In Computers in Cardiology, 2005 (755-758).

The continuous wavelet transform (CWT) offers a valuable tool for the analysis of signals as it provides precise location in time of high frequency components. The selection of a mother wavelet with high correlation with the signal under study provid...

Linguistic applications of formal concept analysis. (2005)
Book Chapter
Priss, U. (2005). Linguistic applications of formal concept analysis. In B. Ganter, G. Stumme, & R. Wille (Eds.), Formal Concept Analysis, Foundations and Applications (149-160). Springer-Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1007/11528784_8

Formal concept analysis as a methodology of data analysis and knowledge representation has potential to be applied to a variety of linguistic problems. First, linguistic applications often involve the identification and analysis of features, such as... Read More about Linguistic applications of formal concept analysis..

Application of the Grouping Genetic Algorithm to University Course Timetabling (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lewis, R., Lewis, R. M. R., & Paechter, B. (2005, March). Application of the Grouping Genetic Algorithm to University Course Timetabling. Presented at 5th European Conference in Evolutionary Computation in Combinatorial Optimisation (EvoCop 2005), Lausann

University Course Timetabling-Problems (UCTPs) involve the allocation of resources (such as rooms and timeslots) to all the events of a university, satisfying a set of hard-constraints and, as much as possible, some soft constraints. Here we work wit... Read More about Application of the Grouping Genetic Algorithm to University Course Timetabling.

A comparison of video and infrared based tracking of pedestrian movements. (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerridge, J., Kukla, R., Willis, A., Armitage, A., Binnie, D., & Lei, L. (2005). A comparison of video and infrared based tracking of pedestrian movements. In S. P. Hoogendoom, S. Luding, P. H. L. Bovy, M. Schreckenberg, & D. E. Wolf (Eds.), Traffic and g

We provide a comparison of the relative merits of video and infrared based methods for collecting pedestrian movements from the real world and also from experimental environments. We describe the underlying technological basis of both methods and the... Read More about A comparison of video and infrared based tracking of pedestrian movements..

Scientific names are ambiguous as identifiers for biological taxa: their context and definition are required for accurate data integration (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kennedy, J., Kukla, R., & Paterson, T. (2005). Scientific names are ambiguous as identifiers for biological taxa: their context and definition are required for accurate data integration. In B. Ludaescher, & L. Raschid (Eds.), Data Integration in the Life

Biologists use scientific names to label the organisms described in their data; however, these names are not unique identifiers for taxonomic entities. Alternative taxonomic classifications may apply the same name, associated with alternative defi...
