Nonlinear speech processing: Overview and applications (2002)
Journal Article
Faúndez-Zanuy, M., McLaughlin, S., Esposito, A., Hussain, A., Schoentgen, J., Kubin, G., Kleijn, W. B., & Maragos, P. (2002). Nonlinear speech processing: Overview and applications. Control and Intelligent Systems, 30, 1-10

This article presents an overview of various nonlinear processing techniques applied to speech signals. Evidence relating to the existence of nonlinearities in speech is presented, and the main differences between linear and nonlinear analysis are su...

Solving a real world routing problem using multiple evolutionary algorithms. (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Urquhart, N. B., Ross, P., Paechter, B., & Chisholm, K. (2002, September). Solving a real world routing problem using multiple evolutionary algorithms. Presented at 7th International Conference PPSN: International Conference on Parallel Problem Solving from Nature-, Granada, Spain

This paper investigates the solving of a real world routing problem using evolutionary algorithms embedded within a Multi-agent system (MAS). An architecture for the MAS is proposed and mechanisms for controlling the interactions of agents are invest...

GAVEL - a new tool for genetic algorithm visualization (2001)
Journal Article
Hart, E., & Ross, P. (2001). GAVEL - a new tool for genetic algorithm visualization. IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation, 5(4), 335-348. https://doi.org/10.1109/4235.942528

This paper surveys the state of the art in evolutionary algorithm visualization and describes a new tool called GAVEL. It provides a means to examine in a genetic algorithm (GA) how crossover and mutation operations assembled the final result, where...

Clustering Moving Data with a Modified Immune Algorithm (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hart, E., & Ross, P. (2001, April). Clustering Moving Data with a Modified Immune Algorithm. Presented at Workshops on Applications of Evolutionary Computation EvoWorkshops 2001, Como, Italy

In this paper we present a prototype of a new model for performing clustering in large, non-static databases. Although many machine learning algorithms for data clustering have been proposed, none appear to specifically address the task of clustering...

An expert system for the performance control of rotating machinery. (2000)
Thesis
Pearson, W. N. An expert system for the performance control of rotating machinery. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/6888

This research presented in this thesis examines the application of feed forward neural
networks to the performance control of a gas transmission compressor. It is estimated that a
global saving in compressor fuel gas of 1% could save the production... Read More about An expert system for the performance control of rotating machinery..

Solving CSPs with evolutionary algorithms using self-adaptive constraint weights. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Eiben, A. E., Jansen, B., Michalewicz, Z., & Paechter, B. (2000, July). Solving CSPs with evolutionary algorithms using self-adaptive constraint weights. Presented at Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO-2000)

This paper examines evolutionary algorithms (EAs) extended by various penalty-based approaches to solve constraint satisfaction
problems (CSPs). In some approaches, the penalties are set in advance and they do not change during a run. In other appro... Read More about Solving CSPs with evolutionary algorithms using self-adaptive constraint weights..

Enhancing the performance of a GA through visualisation. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hart, E., & Ross, P. (2000, July). Enhancing the performance of a GA through visualisation. Presented at GECCO 2000

This article describes a new tool for visualising genetic algorithms, (GAs) which is designed in order to allow the implicit mechanisms
of the GA | i.e. crossover and mutation | to be thoroughly analysed. This allows the user to determine whether th... Read More about Enhancing the performance of a GA through visualisation..

Software agents and computer network security. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pikoulas, J., Mannion, M., & Buchanan, W. J. (2000, April). Software agents and computer network security

Preventing unauthorised access to corporate information systems is essential for many organisations. To address this problem we built a security enhancement software system using software agents, in which a core software agent resides on a server and...
