Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ross, P., Hart, E., Lawson, A., Webb, A., Prem, E., Poelz, P., & Morgavi, G. (2003, September). Requirements for getting a robot to grow-up. Presented at 7th European Conference on Artificial Life, Dortmund, Germany

Much of current robot research is about learning tasks in which the task to be achieved is pre-specified, a suitable technology for the task is chosen and the learning process is then experimentally investigated. In this paper we discuss a different... Read More about Requirements for getting a robot to grow-up.

Controlling a simulated Khepera with an XCS classifier system with memory. (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Webb, A., Hart, E., Ross, P., & Lawson, A. (2003, September). Controlling a simulated Khepera with an XCS classifier system with memory. Presented at 7th European Conference on Artificial Life, ECAL 2003: Advances in Artificial Life

Autonomous agents commonly suffer from perceptual aliasing in which differing situations are perceived as identical by the robots sensors, yet require different courses of action. One technique for addressing this problem is to use additional interna... Read More about Controlling a simulated Khepera with an XCS classifier system with memory..

Who would you trust to identify you in accessing your health record?
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., Anderson, C., Smales, A., Varga, J., Burns, N., Uthmani, O., Fan, L., Lo, O., & Lawson, A. Who would you trust to identify you in accessing your health record?

Within health and social care there is a strong need to provide access to highly sensitive information, and one which requires high levels of identity assurance. This paper outlines a joint project between Edinburgh Napier University and miiCard [10]... Read More about Who would you trust to identify you in accessing your health record?.
