Influences of design tools on the original and redesign processes (2013)
Journal Article
Annamalai Vasantha, G. V., Chakrabarti, A., Rout, B. K., & Corney, J. (2014). Influences of design tools on the original and redesign processes. International Journal of Design Creativity and Innovation, 2(1), 20-50. https://doi.org/10.1080/21650349.2013.839076

Concept generation plays a vital role in establishing a broader foundation in the design process to create novel products. In the globalized, collaborative, designing scenario, an unambiguous representation of captured ideas to explicate a designer’s...

Improving the Aesthetics of Photovoltaics Through Use of Coloured Encapsulants (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hardy, D., Kerrouche, A., Roaf, S. C., & Richards, B. S. (2013, September). Improving the Aesthetics of Photovoltaics Through Use of Coloured Encapsulants. Paper presented at PLEA2013 - 29th Conference, Sustainable Architecture for a Renewable Future, Munich, Germany

Photovoltaics (solar cells) are important in the creation of sustainable architecture, but are difficult to integrate into a wide variety of architectural styles, which is necessary if this technology is to be extensively used. Adding variety to the... Read More about Improving the Aesthetics of Photovoltaics Through Use of Coloured Encapsulants.

A combination selection algorithm on forecasting (2013)
Journal Article
Cang, S., & Yu, H. (2014). A combination selection algorithm on forecasting. European Journal of Operational Research, 234(1), 127-139. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejor.2013.08.045

It is widely accepted in forecasting that a combination model can improve forecasting accuracy. One important challenge is how to select the optimal subset of individual models from all available models without having to try all possible combinations...

Function approximation using combined unsupervised and supervised learning (2013)
Journal Article
Andras, P. (2014). Function approximation using combined unsupervised and supervised learning. IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems, 25(3), 495-505. https://doi.org/10.1109/TNNLS.2013.2276044

Function approximation is one of the core tasks that are solved using neural networks in the context of many engineering problems. However, good approximation results need good sampling of the data space, which usually requires exponentially increasi...
