Automatic surgical activity recognition enables more intelligent devices and a efficient workflow. Integration of such technology in new operating rooms has the potential to improve care delivery patients decrease costs. Recent works have achieved promising performance on recognition; however, lack generalizability these models is one critical barriers wide-scale adoption this technology. In wo...

An investigation of the population parameters of Indian mackerel, Rastrelliger kanagurta (Cuvier, 1816) in the Marudu Bay, Sabah, Malaysia was carried out from January to September 2013. The relationship between total length and body weight was estimated as W=0.006TL3.215 or Log W=3.215LogTL – 2.22 (R2=0.946). Monthly length frequency data of R. kanagurta were analyzed by FiSAT software to eva...

This paper presents an efficient and general solution to the linear regression problem using the Minimum Message Length (MML) principle. Inference in an MML framework involves optimising a two-part costing function that describes the trade-off between model complexity and model capability. The MML criterion is integrated into the orthogonal least squares algorithm (MML-OLS) to improve both spee...
