The way-finding journey within a large public building: a user centred study of the holistic way-finding experience across a range of visual ability
… in buildings by people who have a range of visual ability. Previous research studies, spanning across a broad spectrum of disciplines, have focused on various characteristics of human way-finding (Arthur and Passini, 1992;Lynch, 1960;Downs and Stea, 1973). It is specifically recognised that …

Effects of Turbidity on Anti-Predator Response and Foraging Behavior in the Fountain Darter, Etheostoma fonticola
… pervasive impacts of turbidity include degraded visual ability resulting in altered animal behavior. Anti-predator response and successful foraging ability, both essential elements of ecological communities, are two aspects of behavior that can be affected by turbidity. The federally endangered …

A cell level automated approach for quantifying antibody staining in immunohistochemistry images. A structural approach for quantifying antibody staining in colonic cancer spheroid images by integrating image processing and machine learning towards the implementation of computer aided scoring of cancer markers.
… consuming process that typically relies on the visual ability and experience level of the pathologist. A novel and comprehensive system for the automated quantification of antibody inside stained cell nuclei in immunohistochemistry images is proposed and demonstrated in this research. The system …
