Pixel clustering in spatial data mining; an example study with Kumeu wine region in New Zealand
(The Modelling and Simulation Society of Australia and New Zealand Inc (MODSIM), 2013)This paper describes an approach to pixel clustering using self-organising map (SOM) techniques in order to identify environmental factors that influence grape quality. The study area is the Kumeu grape wine region of ... -
Planetary Radio Interferometry and Doppler Experiment (PRIDE) Technique: A Test Case of the Mars Express Phobos Fly-by
(ESO, 2016)Context. The closest ever fly-by of the Martian moon Phobos, performed by the European Space Agency’s Mars Express spacecraft, gives a unique opportunity to sharpen and test the Planetary Radio Interferometry and Doppler ... -
A Platform for Analysing Advanced Photovoltaic Energy Controllers
(Australian PV Institute (APVI), 2015)Photovoltaic (PV) based power generation technology is being pushed to the forefront as a viable alternative source of renewable energy, particularly in small scale domestic applications. In addition, there is a growing ... -
Plug-in Electric Bus Depot Charging with PV and ESS and Their Impact on LV Feeder
Plug-in electric buses (PEBs) are a promising alternative to conventional buses to provide a sustainable, economical, and efficient mode of transportation. However, electrification of public transportation leads to a ... -
Potential Kick Velocity Distribution of Black Hole X-ray Binaries and Implications for Natal Kicks
We use Very Long Baseline Interferometry to measure the proper motions of three black hole X-ray binaries (BHXBs). Using these results together with data from the literature and Gaia-DR2 to collate the best available ... -
Practitioners of design for quality
(WDK, 1999)Building in high quality continues to be the driving force of new product development activity in industry. Yet as we come to the end of the 1990s and look forward to the challenges in Design Research of the new millennium, ... -
Precise guidance to dynamic test generation
(DBLP, 2012)Dynamic symbolic execution has been shown an effective technique for automated test input generation. However, its scalability is limited due to the combinatorial explosion of the path space. We propose to take advantage ... -

Predicting functional properties of milk powder based on manufacturing data in an industrial-scale powder plant
(Elsevier, 2015)The fundamental science relating key physical and functional properties of milk powder to plant operating conditions is complex and largely unknown. Consequently this paper takes a data-driven approach to relate the routinely ... -
Predicting the Pumping Characteristics of Multiple Parallel Tube Air-lift Pumps
(Australasian Fluid Mechanics Society, 2016)Air-lift pumps have begun to receive a high degree of attention due to the absence of mechanical components and the potential for their use in renewable energy applications. One of the principal challenges of the air-lift ... -
Prediction model for chilli productivity based on climate and productivity data
(IEEE, 2012)The global trade increases the competition in agricultural product export all around the world.The Indonesian Agricultural Industry needs to improve their competitiveness by fulfilling the requirements and restrictions ... -

Preliminary Research on Modelling and Control of Two Line Kites for Power Generation
(2017)Wind power is the second largest renewable resource from which we can obtain electricity besides hydropower. Wind farms have had significant growth in past decades; however, they require a massive investment to setup ... -
Preparing the Global Software Engineer
(IEEE, 2015)With a goal of preparing software engineering students for practice in today’s global settings, Uppsala University has for some years run courses involving global collaboration. The “IT in Society” course is one such ... -
Preventing Lung Damage Via Automation and Optimisation of Mechanical Ventilation for Critically Ill Patients in the Third World
(New Zealand Medical Association (NZMA), 2016)Critically-ill adult patients in the third-world can require breathing support during power outages. However, existing manual ventilation methods can lead to ventilator induced lung injury (VILI) if poorly applied.1. ... -
Pricing Variance Swaps in a Hybrid Model of Stochastic Volatility and Interest Rate With Regime-switching
(arXiv, 2016)In this paper, we consider the problem of pricing discretely-sampled variance swaps based on a hybrid model of stochastic volatility and stochastic interest rate with regime-switching. Our modeling framework extends the ... -
Pricing variance swaps in a stochastic volatility model with regime switching-discrete sampling case
(University of Adelaide/University of South Australia, 2011)This study presents a set of closed-form exact solutions for pricing discretely sampled variance swaps and volatility swaps, based on the Heston stochastic volatility model with regime switching. In comparison with all the ... -
Pricing variance swaps with stochastic volatility
(IAENG/Newswood Limited/International Association of Engineers (IAENG), 2009)Following the pricing approach proposed by Zhu & Lian (2009), we present an exact solution for pricing variance swaps with the realized variance in the payoff function being a logarithmic return of the underlying asset at ... -
Pricing volatility derivatives with stochastic volatility
(University of Wollongong, 2010)Volatility derivatives are products where the volatility is the main underlying notion. These products are particularly important for market investors as they use them to have insight into the level of volatility to ...
