    • Accessing Cultural Heritage using the Web of Data 

      Jankowski, Jacek; Cobos, Yolanda; Hausenblas, Michael; Decker, Stefan (2009)
      Cultural Heritage (CH) is a vast domain, where sharing information is challenging. As a result, the global CH is distributed and heterogeneous. In this paper, we present the concept of the Web of Data as an approach to ...
    • Accurate 2D facial depth models derived from a 3D synthetic dataset 

      Khan, Faisal; Basak, Shubhajit; Corcoran, Peter (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021-05-13)
      As Consumer Technologies (CT) seeks to engage and interact more closely with the end-user it becomes important to observe and analyze a user’s interaction with CT devices and associated services. One of the most useful ...
    • Accurate Bayesian prediction of cardiovascular-related mortality using ambulatory blood pressure measurements 

      O'Neill, James; Madden, Michael G.; Dolan, Eamon (Springer Cham, 2017-05-30)
      Hypertension is the leading cause of cardiovascular-related mortality (CVRM), affecting approximately 1 billion people worldwide. To enable patients at significant risk of CVRM to be treated appropriately, it is essential ...
    • Achieving nearly zero-energy buildings - A lifecycle assessment approach to retrofitting buildings 

      Moran, Paul; Goggins, Jamie; Hajdukiewicz, Magdalena (NUI Galway, 2015-04-23)
      It is now widely recognised in the academic and business worlds that energy efficiency in buildings provides significant environmental and economic opportunities, but also challenges. The building sector offers considerable ...
