Due to their complex nature, it is hard to characterize the ways in which machine learning models can misbehave or be exploited when deployed. Recent work on adversarial examples, i.e. inputs with minor perturbations that result in substantially different model predictions, is helpful in evaluating the robustness of these models by exposing the adversarial scenarios where they fail. However, th...

Informed consent is an important aspect in patient care. Failings in this area may result in patient dissatisfaction or litigation. The aim of this project was to assess our practice in consenting and institute changes to maintain best practice. A consecutive series of 140 patients undergoing elective and trauma procedures were randomly identified over a nine-month period. The consent forms wer...

The rapid growth of digital libraries (DLs) worldwide poses many new challenges for document image analysis (DIA) research and development. DLs promise to offer more people access to larger document collections, and at far greater speed, than physical libraries can. But DLs also tend, for many reasons, to serve poorly, or even to omit entirely, many types of non-digital human–legible media, suc...

Pervasive animation in games, animation, films, numerous websites and stand-alone information interfaces, means that software increasingly influences how we imagine fictions, display information and interact with a digitally mediated world. Given its centrality in creating image, how can a 3D software package be made visible beyond the images seen in cinema, in games, commercials and visualizat...

Due to the growing amount of information on the web, the user specific requirements and different characteristics of output devices, the opportunities for the automatic generation of multimedia presentations grow. The multimedia presentation generator, that resides in a dynamic environment, such as a museum website, where the user requirements, presentation device characteristics, presentation ...

This paper considers how processes of quantification are implicated in settler colonial political imperatives. I examine numbers operate as forms governmentality that obfuscate, depoliticize, commensurate, fiscalize, promote transparency and visibility, ultimately reduce the density Indigenous Nations. The specifically focusses on fiscal surveillance flows from to make life legible state, marke...

A robot moving in the presence of humans is highly constrained by the dynamic environment and the need to comply with human safety, preferences, cognition and actions. The dynamic nature of the environment should be taken into account at planning time and must be allowed for by flexible plan execution, to produce safe, efficient and legible robot behavior. Moreover, when the space in which huma...
