FPGA implementation of an Image Segmentation algorithm using logarithmic arithmetic
(IEEE, 2005)Image Segmentation is a process used in Computer Vision to automatically divide up an image. We investigate the suitability of FPGAs and Log Arithmetic for Image Processing. We implemented a Bayesian pixel-based ... -
Fully Bayesian source separation with application to the cosmic microwave background
(IEEE, 2008)We address the problem of source separation in the presence of prior information. We develop a fully Bayesian source separation technique that assumes a very flexible model for the sources, namely the Gaussian mixture ... -
Gender equality in the civil service - gender imbalance in the Irish civil service at higher executive officer level ( HEO ) and above

A Heuristic Policy for Maintaining Multiple Multi-State Systems
(2020)This work is concerned with the optimal allocation of limited maintenance resources among a collection of competing multi-state systems, and the dynamic of each multi-state system is modelled by a Markov chain. Determining ... -
Image segmentation using the double Markov random field, with application to land use estimation
(IEEE, 2001)We describe the double Markov random field, a natural hierarchical model for a Bayesian approach to model-based textured image segmentation. The model is difficult to implement, even using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) ... -
The Impact of a Revised EQ-5D Population Scoring on Preference-Based Utility Scores in an Inflammatory Arthritis Cohort
(2011)Background and Objective It is well established that there are problems with the EQ-5D. This is due to the original scoring methods used and how negative time trade-off (TTO) values were treated. A revised scoring method ... -
Improving CBIR by modelling the search process: a Bayesian approach
(2006)In this paper we look at a simple image retrieval with relevance feedback scenario where we model simple properties of the search process. A content-based image retrieval method based on Bayesian inference is proposed ... -

Irish Machine Vision and Image Processing Conference Proceedings 2018
(Irish Pattern Recognition and Classification Society, 2018)With IMVIP 2018 the series of Irish Machine Vision and Image Processing conferences reaches a landmark occasion: IMVIP 2018 is the 20th edition in a series of which the inaugural meeting was held at the Magee campus of ... -
Leadership for Business Excellence: The Gender Perspective
(SAI Global, 2008)The adoption of appropriate forms of leadership in response to modern organizational needs has become a major strand of management theory and underpins the pursuit of Total Quality/Business Excellence. With some notable ... -
Lower Confidence Limit for Reliability Based on Grouped Data with a Quantile Filling Algorithm
(2014)The purpose of this article is to derive a lower confidence limit for reliability given a grouped data set. This is done by using a quantile filling algorithm which generates pseudo failure data from grouped data. A general ... -
The magnitude of global marine species diversity
(2012)Background The question of how many marine species exist is important because it provides a metric for how much we do and do not know about life in the oceans. We have compiled the first register of the marine species ... -
Mixed membership of experts stochastic blockmodel
(2016)Social network analysis is the study of how links between a set of actors are formed. Typically, it is believed that links are formed in a structured manner, which may be due to, for example, political or material ... -
Model selection with application to gamma process and inverse Gaussian process
(2016)The gamma process and the inverse Gaussian process are widely used in condition-based maintenance. Both are suitable for modelling monotonically increasing degradation processes. Hence, one challenge for practitioners ... -

Modeling and adapting production environmental stress testing
(2009)This study describes the production sampling environmental stress test (PSEST) process and the offline analysis conducted. Some of the key characteristics and parameters of the test are outlined. The analytical process ... -
Negotiating Work/Life Balance : the Experience of Fathers and Mothers in Ireland
(UCL (Belgium), 2007)Working arrangements are still not sufficiently flexible to enable parents to manage to fulfil their roles as workers and as carers and there remains a dearth of flexible working arrangements and work-life balance policies ... -
Nonparametric analysis of the order-statistic model in software reliability
(IEEE, 2007)In the literature on statistical inference in software reliability, the assumptions of parametric models and random sampling of bugs have been pervasive. We argue that both assumptions are problematic, the first because ...
