Efficient and Compact Convolutional Neural Network Architectures for Non-temporal Real-time Fire Detection (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Thomson, W., Bhowmik, N., & Breckon, T. (2020, December). Efficient and Compact Convolutional Neural Network Architectures for Non-temporal Real-time Fire Detection. Presented at 19th IEEE International Conference on Machine Learning and Applications (ICMLA 2020), Miami, FL

Automatic visual fire detection is used to complement traditional fire detection sensor systems (smoke/heat). In this work, we investigate different Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architectures and their variants for the non-temporal real-time bo...

Deleting edges to restrict the size of an epidemic in temporal networks (2021)
Journal Article
Enright, J., Meeks, K., Mertzios, G., & Zamaraev, V. (2021). Deleting edges to restrict the size of an epidemic in temporal networks. Journal of Computer and System Sciences, 119, 60-77. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcss.2021.01.007

Spreading processes on graphs are a natural model for a wide variety of real-world phenomena, including information spread over social networks and biological diseases spreading over contact networks. Often, the networks over which these processes sp... Read More about Deleting edges to restrict the size of an epidemic in temporal networks.

Exploiting Spontaneous Transmissions for Broadcasting and Leader Election in Radio Networks (2021)
Journal Article
Czumaj, A., & Davies, P. (2021). Exploiting Spontaneous Transmissions for Broadcasting and Leader Election in Radio Networks. Journal of the ACM, 68(2), 1-22. https://doi.org/10.1145/3446383

We study two fundamental communication primitives: broadcasting and leader election in the classical model of multi-hop radio networks with unknown topology and without collision detection mechanisms. It has been known for almost 20 years that in und... Read More about Exploiting Spontaneous Transmissions for Broadcasting and Leader Election in Radio Networks.
