A multi-language toolkit for the semi-automated checking of research outputs [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Privacy (2025), 2022 This article presents a free and open source toolkit that supports the semi-automated checking of research outputs (SACRO) for privacy disclosure within secure data environments. SACRO is a framework that applies best-practice principles-based statistical disclosure control (SDC) techniques on-the-fly as researchers conduct their analyses.

Mind the Gap! A Study on the Transferability of Virtual vs Physical-world Testing of Autonomous Driving Systems [PDF]
, 2021 Safe deployment of self-driving cars (SDC) necessitates thorough simulated and in-field testing. Most testing techniques consider virtualized SDCs within a simulation environment, whereas less effort has been directed towards assessing whether such techniques transfer to and are effective with a physical real-world vehicle. In this paper, we shed light

Cost-effective Simulation-based Test Selection in Self-driving Cars Software [PDF]
, 2022 Simulation environments are essential for the continuous development of complex cyber-physical systems such as self-driving cars (SDCs). Previous results on simulation-based testing for SDCs have shown that many automatically generated tests do not strongly contribute to identification of SDC faults, hence do not contribute towards increasing the ...

Blind Determination of the Number of Sources Using Distance Correlation [PDF]
in IEEE Signal Processing Letters, vol. 26, no. 6, pp. 828-832,
June 2019, 2020 A novel blind estimate of the number of sources from noisy, linear mixtures is proposed. Based on Sz\'ekely et al.'s distance correlation measure, we define the Sources' Dependency Criterion (SDC), from which our estimate arises. Unlike most previously proposed estimates, the SDC estimate exploits the full independence of the sources and noise, as well

New applications for the Boris Spectral Deferred Correction algorithm for plasma simulations [PDF]
Applied Mathematics and Computation: 442, pp. 127706, 2023, 2021 The paper investigates two new use cases for the Boris Spectral Deferred Corrections (Boris-SDC) time integrator for plasma simulations. First, we show that using Boris-SDC as a particle pusher in an electrostatic particle-in-cell (PIC) code can, at least in the linear regime, improve simulation accuracy compared with the standard second order Boris ...
