While the theory of designing for Universal Access is increasingly understood, there remain persistent issues over realising products and systems that meet the goal of being accessible and usable by the broadest possible set of users. Clearly product... Read More about When Universal Access is not quite universal enough: Case studies and lessons to be learned.

Canonical correlation analysis on data with censoring and error information (2013)
Journal Article
Sun, J., & Keates, S. (2013). Canonical correlation analysis on data with censoring and error information. IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems, 24(12), 1909-1919. https://doi.org/10.1109/TNNLS.2013.2262949

We developed a probabilistic model for canonical correlation analysis in the case when the associated datasets are incomplete. This case can arise where data entries either contain measurement errors or are censored (i.e., nonignorable missing) due t...

Participation spaces. (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Taylor-Smith, E. (2012, September). Participation spaces. Presented at Fourth international conference on eParticipation (ePart 2012)

A wide democratic view of participation and eParticipation informs research centred on citizens’ experiences of participation. Case studies of participation are conceived in the vein of work place studies: ethnographic approaches to studying current... Read More about Participation spaces..

Untangling the culture medium of student designers (2006)
Journal Article
Strickfaden, M., Heylighen, A., Rodgers, P., & Neuckermans, H. (2006). Untangling the culture medium of student designers. CoDesign, 2(02), 97-107. https://doi.org/10.1080/15710880600647865

Designs do not occur in a vacuum. They are nourished by a breeding ground composed of various substances, phenomena and traces, which function as raw material for concept generation and ultimately for design. This paper examines the composition and f... Read More about Untangling the culture medium of student designers.

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..
