A Decentralized Batch-Based Group Key Management Protocol for Mobile Internet of Things (DBGK) (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abdmeziem, M. R., Tandjaoui, D., & Romdhani, I. (2015, October). A Decentralized Batch-Based Group Key Management Protocol for Mobile Internet of Things (DBGK). Presented at 2015 IEEE International Conference on Computer and Information Technology; Ubiquitous Computing and Communications; Dependable, Autonomic and Secure Computing; Pervasive Intelligence and Computing

It is anticipated that constrained devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) will often operate in groups to achieve collective monitoring or management tasks. For sensitive and mission-critical sensing tasks, securing multicast applications is therefo...

From the Virtual to the RealWorld: Referring to Objects in Real-World Spatial Scenes (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gkatzia, D., Rieser, V., Bartie, P., & Mackaness, W. (2015, September). From the Virtual to the RealWorld: Referring to Objects in Real-World Spatial Scenes. Presented at 2015 Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing, Lisbon

Predicting the success of referring expressions (RE) is vital for real world applications such as navigation systems. Traditionally, research has focused on studying Referring Expression Generation (REG) in virtual, controlled environments. In this p...

A novel method for rapid inspection of sewer networks: combining acoustic and optical means (2015)
Journal Article
Plihal, H., Kretschmer, F., Ali, M. T. B., See, C. H., Romanova, A., Horoshenkov, K. V., & Ertl, T. (2016). A novel method for rapid inspection of sewer networks: combining acoustic and optical means. Urban Water Journal, 13(1), 3-14. https://doi.org/10.1080/1573062x.2015.1076857

Operation and maintenance of the public sewer system represent key tasks for an operator. Condition assessment is usually conducted by conventional closed circuit television (CCTV) inspection. However, alternative tools such as manhole-zoom cameras (... Read More about A novel method for rapid inspection of sewer networks: combining acoustic and optical means.

A Game-Based Setup for Data Collection and Task-Based Evaluation of Uncertain Information Presentation (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gkatzia, D., Cercas Curry, A., Rieser, V., & Lemon, O. (2015, September). A Game-Based Setup for Data Collection and Task-Based Evaluation of Uncertain Information Presentation. Presented at 15th European Workshop on Natural Language Generation (ENLG 2015), University of Brighton, Brighton, UK

Decision-making is often dependent on uncertain data, e.g. data associated with confidence scores, such as probabilities. A concrete example of such data is weather data. We will demo a game-based setup for exploring the effectiveness of different ap...

A Snapshot of NLG Evaluation Practices 2005 - 2014 (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gkatzia, D., & Mahamood, S. (2015, September). A Snapshot of NLG Evaluation Practices 2005 - 2014. Presented at Proceedings of the 15th European Workshop on Natural Language Generation (ENLG), University of Brighton Brighton, UK

In this paper we present a snapshot of endto-end NLG system evaluations as presented in conference and journal papers1 over the last ten years in order to better understand the nature and type of evaluations that have been undertaken. We find that re... Read More about A Snapshot of NLG Evaluation Practices 2005 - 2014.

Generating and Evaluating Landmark-Based Navigation Instructions in Virtual Environments (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Cercas Curry, A., Gkatzia, D., & Rieser, V. (2015, September). Generating and Evaluating Landmark-Based Navigation Instructions in Virtual Environments. Presented at 15th European Workshop on Natural Language Generation (ENLG 2015), University of Brighton, Brighton, UK

Referring to landmarks has been identified to lead to improved navigation instructions. However, a previous corpus study suggests that human “wizards” also choose to refer to street names and generate user-centric instructions. In this paper, we cond...

A Miniaturised Monopole Wideband Antenna with Reconfigurable Band Rejection for WLAN/WiMAX (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Elfergani, I. T. E., Hussaini, A. S., See, C. H., Rodriguez, J., Abd-Alhameed, R., & Marques, P. (2014, November). A Miniaturised Monopole Wideband Antenna with Reconfigurable Band Rejection for WLAN/WiMAX. Presented at WICON 2014, Lisbon, POrtugal

This paper proposes a tuneable band-rejected miniaturised monopole antenna. The band-notching was achieved by printing an inner chorded crescent shape over the surface of the substrate. By placing a small varactor between the inner and outer arches,... Read More about A Miniaturised Monopole Wideband Antenna with Reconfigurable Band Rejection for WLAN/WiMAX.
