A mixed-precision algorithm for the solution of Lyapunov equations on hybrid CPU–GPU platforms
Elsevier (2011)We describe a hybrid Lyapunov solver based on the matrix sign function, where the intensive parts of the computation are accelerated using a graphics processor (GPU) while executing the remaining operations on a general-purpose ... -
A model for colour naming and comparing based on conceptual neighbourhood. An application for comparing art compositions
Elsevier (2015)A computational model for Qualitative Colour Description, named the QCD model, is defined using the Hue, Saturation and Luminance colour space. This model can name rainbow colours, pale, light and dark colours, and colours ...

A model for the qualitative description of images based on visual and spatial features
Elsevier (2012-06)An approach that provides a qualitative description of any image is presented in this paper. The main visual features (shape and colour) and the main spatial features (fixed orientation, relative orientation and topology) ...
-
A model-driven transformation approach for the modelling of processes in clinical practice guidelines
Elsevier (2023)Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) include recommendations aimed at optimising patient care, informed by a review of the available clinical evidence. To achieve their potential benefits, CPG should be readily available at ...
