Looking at quality through a systems lens—Applying systems thinking to the Australian National Disability Insurance Scheme

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It is widely recognised that many policy systems are complex, requiring collaboration across different organisations and sectors to address socioeconomic outcomes and inequalities. Yet, the public policy literature is dominated by rational–technical frameworks that struggle to understand complex systems. This paper applies ideas from the field

Connectivity-Enforcing Hough Transform for the Robust Extraction of Line Segments

open access: yes, 2011
Global voting schemes based on the Hough transform (HT) have been widely used to robustly detect lines in images. However, since the votes do not take line connectivity into account, these methods do not deal well with cluttered images.

Integration of biological data resources using image object keying. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This paper proposes a novel concept of ‘image object keying'. The work builds on earlier research in this area and shows how the 3D structure of a protein can be retrieved interactively from a gel electrophoresis protein spot.

‘Mere Amateurs’? Elementary Teachers and the Making of Scientific Authority in the British Child Study Movement

open access: yesHistory, EarlyView.
Abstract This article offers new perspectives on the relationship between elementary teaching, scientific expertise and the professionalization of the human sciences. Previous scholarship has demonstrated the ready existence of ‘amateur’ science societies in the nineteenth century where cross‐class exchanges were common.

Multi-Stage Hough Space Calculation for Lane Markings Detection via IMU and Vision Fusion

open access: yesSensors, 2019
It is challenging to achieve robust lane detection based on a single frame, particularly when complicated driving scenarios are present. A novel approach based on multiple frames is proposed in this paper by taking advantage of the fusion of vision and ...

Survey on differential estimators for 3d point clouds

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advancements in 3D scanning technologies, including LiDAR and photogrammetry, have enabled the precise digital replication of real‐world objects. These methods are widely used in fields such as GIS, robotics, and cultural heritage. However, the point clouds generated by such scans are often noisy and unstructured, posing challenges for ...

Identifying music documents in a collection of images [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Digital libraries and search engines are now well-equipped to find images of documents based on queries. Many images of music scores are now available, often mixed up with textual documents and images.

Leadership and Accountability in Faith‐Based Institutions: Evidence From UK Mosques

open access: yesFinancial Accountability &Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates accountability in religious institutions on the basis of evidence obtained from interviews with relevant parties in UK mosques. We mobilize prior theoretical contention regarding servant leadership and constraints on personal accountability to expose perceptions of seriously deficient discharge outcomes.

Dynamical simulation of on‐axis transmission Kikuchi and spot diffraction patterns, based on accurate diffraction geometry calibration

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Transmission Kikuchi diffraction in the scanning electron microscope has gained popularity as a materials characterisation technique for its high throughput and nanometre‐level spatial resolution. While conventional diffraction pattern analysis routines focus on Kikuchi bands on the diffraction patterns, the full physical picture of electron ...

Markov Determinantal Point Process for Dynamic Random Sets

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Law of Determinantal Point Process (LDPP) is a flexible parametric family of distributions over random sets defined on a finite state space, or equivalently over multivariate binary variables. The aim of this paper is to introduce Markov processes of random sets within the LDPP framework. We show that, when the pairwise distribution of two
