In this paper, we investigate the ability of genetic representation methods to describe two-dimensional outline shapes, in order to use them in a generative design system. A specific area of mechanical design focuses on planar mechanisms. These are a... Read More about 2-Dimensional Outline Shape Representation for Generative Design with Evolutionary Algorithms.

This work in progress focuses on the evaluation of a genetic representation for outline shapes for planar mechanical levers which addresses the first stage of the complex real-world problem of modelling and evolving planar mechanical lever systems. T... Read More about Evaluation of a genetic representation for outline shapes.

Guiding learners to near native fluency in English through an adaptive programme of activities which includes phoneme and prosody analysis. (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This project aims to address pronunciation problems of English language learners. Current pronunciation software tools mainly address phonemic difficulties and give little or no analytic feedback. Achievement of near native fluency however involves t...
