Although we represent other people in terms of both what they look like and how they behave, these two aspects of person knowledge have rarely been studied together. While vision scientists have focused on the processing of faces and bodies,…

Current model-driven Web Engineering approaches (such as OO-H, UWE or WebML) provide a set of methods and supporting tools for a systematic design and development of Web applications. Each method addresses different concerns using separate models (content, navigation, presentation, business…

Undergraduate physiotherapy programmes aim to equip graduates with basic skills, knowledge and behaviours to allow them to
enter the profession. The aim of this study was to explore employers’ perceptions of key factors in work place preparedness of novice
physiotherapists.…

The design of intelligent agents is greatly influenced by the many different models that exist to represent knowledge. It is essential that such agents have computationally adequate mechanisms to manage its knowledge, which more often than not is incomplete and/or…

Multiagent systems and online communities rely on rating systems to infer the reputation given to an individual within a particular context. The notion of reputation is essential for helping a given individual to trust in other individuals and for being…

Co-training can learn from datasets having a small number of labelled examples and a large number of unlabelled ones. It is an iterative algorithm where examples labelled in previous iterations are used to improve the classification of examples from the…

Over the past several decades, abundant research has investigated the onset of gender role development in early childhood, suggesting that children as young as 3 possess substantial awareness of gender stereotypes and, by age 5, strong beliefs about the need…

Communication over interference channels poses challenges not present for the more traditional
additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels. In order to approach the information
limits of an interference channel, interference mitigation techniques need to be
integrated with channel coding and…
