Our MAppSci student, Wenbo Wu (co-supervised by Senior Lecturer Lech Szymanski and Professor Zhiyi Huang), has trained our robot dog ‘Scary Maclary’ to detect emotions from people’s faces using deep learning. Check out this video of Wenbo’s awesome project!

Paradiso at The Crown

These highlights capture all the atmosphere of their electrifying performance 🙌 Be on the lookout for their next gig! #dunedinmusic #joydivision #livemusic #dunedinnz

"Look at this!" Dr. Jonathan Sutton, our recent PhD graduate, is currently on conference travel to the ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology (ACM UIST 2022) in Bend, Oregon. He is presenting his paper "Look over there! Investigating Saliency Modulation for Visual Guidance with Augmented Reality Glasses” which he coauthored with Tobias, Alex, Stefanie, Yuta, and Holger. 👏

Senior Lecturer Daniel Alencar da Costa recently returned from Helsinki, where he presented a research paper at the 16th ACM/IEEE International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement - ESEM. Continuous integration (CI) is the frequent automation of merging code from multiple developers into a central project repository. Here is a clip from Daniel’s presentation, where he is talking about how most studies don’t use detailed criteria for identifying CI and that projects often give the illusion of practising CI. #softwaredevelopment #continuousintegration #softwareengineering #conferencepresentation #esem22
