Hydrogen is one route to decarbonise the gas network. Design and operation of existing pipeline networks, the associated safety guidance, and the governing standards are all based on natural gas. Read more
A crucial image processing task is image segmentation. we often seek to identify the presence and location of key features in an image, for example a tumour in a medical scan. Read more
The current evolution of our Universe is dominated by the influence of dark energy and dark matter, which constitute 95% of its content. However, an understanding of the fundamental physics underlying the dark Universe remains critically lacking. Forthcoming experiments have the potential to revolutionalise our understanding of the dark Universe. Read more
Facial recognition is one of the most academically studied and industrially developed areas within computer vision where we readily find associated applications deployed globally. Read more
