Neurobiologically-inspired soft switching control of autonomous vehicles (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Yang, E., Hussain, A., & Gurney, K. (2014, July). Neurobiologically-inspired soft switching control of autonomous vehicles. Presented at BICS: International Conference on Brain Inspired Cognitive Systems, Shenyang, China

A novel soft switching control approach is presented in this paper for autonomous vehicles by using a new functional model for Basal Ganglia (BG). In the proposed approach, a family of fundamental controllers is treated as each of a set of basic cont... Read More about Neurobiologically-inspired soft switching control of autonomous vehicles.

Retrieval of semantic concepts based on analysis of texts for automatic construction of ontology (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Krishnan, R., Hussain, A., & Sherimon, P. (2012, November). Retrieval of semantic concepts based on analysis of texts for automatic construction of ontology. Presented at 19th International Conference, ICONIP 2012, Doha, Qatar

Ontology together with Semantic Web has a vital role in knowledge management on a global scale. Since manual construction of ontology leads to complex, time consuming and inconsistent results, automatic construction of ontology is more preferred. Thi...
