Probabilistic stability analysis and optimisation for human-machine interactive systems using stochastic distribution shaping
Research Group:
Applied Computing
Future industrial systems will be significantly different from their present states. The main factor we have to consider is the uncertainties. Read more
Global diversity and ecosystem functions of plant-microbe symbioses
Research Group:
CENTA - Central England NERC Training Alliance
Project Highlights. We have discovered a previously unknown and abundant plant- mycorrhizal symbiosis with global distribution. Read more
Lost at sea – distribution, impacts and policy interventions of marine cigarette butt litter
PhD Studentship (Fee waiver and Bursary). School of Life Sciences. Cambridge Campus. Fixed term contract for 3 years, commencing Sept. Read more
Reconstruction of Transverse Beam Distribution using Machine Learning
The beam transverse distribution in CERN's high-radiation environment is measured by imaging the light generated by the particle beam hitting a scintillating screen, using cameras produced in-house based on radiation hard tubes. Read more
Planning and Design of Distribution Networks with Integration of Smart Grid Technologies
Research Group:
Communication and Networks
The UK Government’s target is to achieve 15% of electricity generation from renewable energy sources (RES) by 2020. The installation of large amounts of RES in distribution networks introduces several economic and technical challenges to distribution network operators (DNOs). Read more
Global distribution, costs and shipment of Green Hydrogen
Supervisory Team. Dominic Hudson. Project description. In response to the climate crisis and to tackle global warming through reducing emissions, we must decarbonise the world’s energy. Read more
Human fat distribution and metabolic disease: Identifying the mechanistic basis for site-specific fat storage to identify new ways of tackling the metabolic consequences of obesity.
Identifying the mechanistic basis for site-specific fat storage to identify new ways of tackling the metabolic consequences of obesity. Read more
Risky asset models with dependence and heavy-tailed distributions
It is now generally accepted that heavy-tailed distributions occur commonly in practice. Their use is now widespread in communication network, risky asset and insurance modelling. Read more
Unlocking the relationship between host metal distribution and pathogen phenotype in tuberculosis
Research Group:
Biochemistry
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) is the leading cause of death by a bacterial pathogen, with 1.5 million deaths estimated in 2020. Read more
Title: Airborne Quantum Key Distribution and Free-Space Optical Communications. Simulations and experimental verifications for practical quantum communications, including investigations into event-driven detection and processing algorithms.
Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a secure encryption key sharing protocol that addresses potential vulnerabilities in encryption key sharing and encrypted data storage. Read more
Understanding the type, distribution and mechanical properties of interfaces in geological systems
Funding and Deadline. To be eligible for support, applicants must be “UK Residents” as defined by the EPSRC1. The studentship is for 3.5 years starting in October 2022 and will provide full coverage of standard tuition fees and an annual tax-free stipend of approximately £17,609. Read more
Quantum Key Distribution
Research Group:
School of Physics and Astronomy
One of the biggest likely threats to cryptography is the current rapid progress in quantum computing. One of the most likely candidates to meet this threat is quantum key distribution, however this potentially leads to an enormous cost in creating the necessary infrastructure. Read more
Duality methods in Bayesian inference for hidden Markov models
Abstract. The project deals with Bayesian inference on the trajectory of a diffusion process or on the parameters that characterize its drift and volatility, under the assumption of a hidden Markov model framework with noisy data collection. Read more
Deciphering the role of white and brown adipocytes in metabolic disease
Our work focuses on understanding how obesity drives the development of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Specifically, it aims to decipher molecular determinants of adipocyte number and distribution within the body; key factors of susceptibility to obesity-associated cardiometabolic diseases. Read more
