Genetic algorithms can be used to search very large spaces, and it would seem natural to use them for tackling the nastier kinds of timetabling problem. We completed an EPSRC-funded project on this last year, and distribute a free package that handle... Read More about Genetic algorithms and timetabling.

R-wave detection using continuous wavelet modulus maxima. (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Romero Legarreta, I., Addison, P., Grubb, N. R., Clegg, G. R., Robertson, C. E., Fox, K. A. A., & Watson, J. N. (2003). R-wave detection using continuous wavelet modulus maxima. In Computers in Cardiology, 2003 (565-568). https://doi.org/10.1109/CIC.2003

Modulus maxima derived from the continuous wavelet transform offers an enhanced time-frequency analysis technique for ECG signal analysis. Features within the ECG can be shown to correspond to various morphologies in the continuous modulus maxima dom... Read More about R-wave detection using continuous wavelet modulus maxima..
