Abstract The majority of the world's citizens now live in cities. Although urban planning can thus be thought as a field with significant ramifications on human condition, many practitioners feel that it has reached crossroads leadership between traditional practice and new, more participatory open approach. Conventional ways to engage people exercises are limited reach scope. At same time, socio-cultural trends technology innovation offer opportunities re-think status quo planning....

Without effective self-care, people with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are at risk of prolonged healing times, hospitalization, amputation, and reduced quality life. Despite these consequences, adherence to DFU self-care remains low. New strategies needed engage in the their DFUs.This study aimed evaluate usability potential usefulness a new mobile phone app DFUs self-care.We developed app, MyFootCare, through goals, progress monitoring, reminders self-care. Key features included novel visual...

Game environments are complex interactive systems that require extensive analysis and testing to ensure they at a high enough quality be released commercially. In particular, the last build of product needs an additional beta test carried out by people play game in order establish its robustness playability. This entails costs from viewpoint company as it requires hiring testers. present work we propose general software framework integrates Artificial Intelligence (AI) Agents Computer Vision...

There is growing awareness about the potential benefit of harnessing citizen science for research, particularly in biological and environmental sciences. Data quality a major constraint use citizen‐science data, particular, imperfect observations. In this paper, we fit species distribution models to presence‐only data (presences counts, with no absences observed) by exploiting uncertainty reported presences, instead generating pseudo‐absences as common previous studies. This approach allowed...

We present the design of MyFootCare, a mobile app to support people with diabetic foot ulcers in their self-care. Self-care is critical component care for ulcer as most provided away from clinic. To promote better self-care, we designed application 'MyFootCare' that harnesses visual analytics and self-report provide feedback about healing process. MyFootCare encourages take photo phone each time they change wound dressing. Based on computer vision techniques, users receive graphical changes...

Aesthetic value, or beauty, is important to the relationship between humans and natural environments is, therefore, a fundamental socio-economic attribute of conservation alongside other ecosystem services. However, beauty difficult quantify not estimated well using traditional approaches monitoring coral-reef aesthetics. To improve estimation aesthetic values, we developed implemented novel framework used features aesthetics based on people's perceptions beauty. Three observer groups with...

This paper presents some lessons learnt from the co-creation, within a support organisation, of virtual world dedicated to practicing life skills for people with intellectual disability. The progression project throughout successive stages has indicated what would want see and practice in such world, which not have been found after single development iteration. These desires include representation public spaces, social interactions disruptions. Based on initial trials, we propose new design...

People with diabetes-related foot ulcers (DFUs) need to perform self-care consistently over many months promote healing and mitigate risks of hospitalisation amputation. However, during that time, improvement in their DFU can be hard detect. Hence, there is a for an accessible method self-monitor DFUs at home. We developed new mobile phone app, "MyFootCare", progression from photos the foot. The aim this study evaluate engagement perceived value MyFootCare people plantar 3 months' duration....

Information uncertainty is inherent in many problems and often subtle complicated to understand. Although visualization a powerful means for exploring understanding information, information ad hoc not widespread. This paper identifies two main barriers the uptake of visualization: firstly, difficulty modeling propagating information; secondly, mapping visual elements. To overcome these barriers, we extend spreadsheet paradigm encapsulate details within cells. creates an awareness associated...
