Journal Article
McCay, K. D., Hu, P., Shum, H. P., Woo, W. L., Marcroft, C., Embleton, N. D., Munteanu, A., & Ho, E. S. (2022). A Pose-based Feature Fusion and Classification Framework for the Early Prediction of Cerebral Palsy in Infants. IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 30, 8-19. https://doi.org/10.1109/tnsre.2021.3138185

The early diagnosis of cerebral palsy is an area which has recently seen significant multi-disciplinary research. Diagnostic tools such as the General Movements Assessment (GMA), have produced some very promising results. However, the prospect of aut...

Journal Article
Parra-Ullauri, J. M., Garcıa-Domınguez, A., Bencomo, N., Zheng, C., Zhen, C., Boubeta-Puig, J., Ortiz, G., & Yang, S. (2022). Event-driven Temporal Models for Explanations - ETeMoX: Explaining Reinforcement Learning. Software and Systems Modeling, 21(3), 1091-1113. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10270-021-00952-4

Modern software systems are increasingly expected to show higher degrees of autonomy and self-management to cope with uncertain and diverse situations. As a consequence, autonomous systems can exhibit unexpected and surprising behaviours. This is exa...
