Data mining involves useful knowledge discovery using a data matrix consisting of records and attributes or variables. Not all the attributes may be useful in knowledge discovery, as some of them may be redundant, irrelevant, noisy or even opposing....

Testing and Sampling Parallel Systems (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerridge, J. (2007). Testing and Sampling Parallel Systems. In A. A. McEwan, S. Schneider, W. Ifill, & P. Welch (Eds.), Communicating Process Architectures 2007 (149-162)

The testing of systems using tools such as JUnit is well known to the sequential programming community. It is perhaps less well known to the parallel computing community because it relies on systems terminating so that system outputs can be compared...

Investigating children's eye-movements: Cause or effect of reversing ambiguous figures? (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wimmer, M., & Doherty, M. (2007). Investigating children's eye-movements: Cause or effect of reversing ambiguous figures?. In Proceedings of the 29th Annual Cognitive Science Society. , (1659-1664)

We examined whether eye-movements play a significant role in perceiving both interpretations (reversing) of ambiguous figures such as the duck/rabbit (Jastrow, 1900). In an eye tracking study we investigated 3-, 4- and 5-year-old children’s reversal... Read More about Investigating children's eye-movements: Cause or effect of reversing ambiguous figures?.
