Exhibition / Performance
Urquhart, N., Hutcheson, W., & Hoehl, S. SICSA Demofest 2018 - Supporting user choice in optimisation. Exhibited at Our Dynamic Earth, Edinburgh. 6 November 2018 - 6 November 2018. (Unpublished)

Many complex optimisation problems can have multiple solutions, techniques such as MAP –Elites will produce a large number of solutions from which the user should make the final choice. That final choice may be based on a number of soft criteria for... Read More about SICSA Demofest 2018 - Supporting user choice in optimisation..

Visual Meaningful Encryption Scheme Using Intertwinning Logistic Map (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Abbasi, S. F., Ahmad, J., Khan, J. S., Khan, M. A., & Sheikh, S. A. (2019). Visual Meaningful Encryption Scheme Using Intertwinning Logistic Map. . https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-01177-2_56

Transmission of images over the Internet is exponentially increased in the last decade. However, Internet is considered as an insecure channel and hence may cause serious privacy issues. To overcome such privacy concerns, researchers are trying to se... Read More about Visual Meaningful Encryption Scheme Using Intertwinning Logistic Map.
