An advantage of chaotic neural dynamics (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Andras, P., & Lycett, S. (2007). An advantage of chaotic neural dynamics. In 2007 International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (1417-1422). https://doi.org/10.1109/IJCNN.2007.4371166

One hypothesis about how biological neural systems work suggests that they use attractor dynamics to define their behaviour. Such behaviour can be modelled using recurrent neural network models. It has been shown that such systems can perform a wide... Read More about An advantage of chaotic neural dynamics.

Dual Form of Reed-Muller (DFRM) expansions with fixed poarity are derived from Reed-Muller (RM) expansions by using the operation of Kronecker matrix products. An efficient decomposition method is proposed based on the formulation. The method can be... Read More about An efficient transformation method for DFRM expansions..

Torsion tests on small and large-scale RHS with circular wall cut-outs (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ridley-Ellis, D., Owen, J. S., & Davies, G. (2007). Torsion tests on small and large-scale RHS with circular wall cut-outs.

The results of small and large-scale torsion tests on rectangular section tubes with circular wall perforations are presented and discussed. Perforations are shown to cause the torsional resistance to be re-duced by up to 60% and stiffness to be redu...

Adaptive PN code acquisition in multi-path spread spectrum communications using FPGA. (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wei, B., Sharif, M., Binnie, D., & Almaini, A. E. A. (2007). Adaptive PN code acquisition in multi-path spread spectrum communications using FPGA. In Proceedings of the 13th International Symposium on Signals, Circuits and Systems (573-576)

Performance of two pseudonoise (PN) code detectors was tested. Cell averaging (CA) and order Statistics (OS) constant false alarm rates (CFAR) were analysed against mean acquisition time (MAT) and against the probability of detection (Pd). Both detec...
