Communicating Interdisciplinary Research

On Communicating Computational Research

Inspired by prior work on stabilized auditory image features, we have developed novel auditory-model-based features that preserve the fine time structure lost in conventional frame-based features. While the original auditory model is computationally intense, we present a simpler system that runs about ten times faster but achieves equivalent performance. We use these features for video soundtra...

The Interdisciplinary Research Process

This book provides case studies of the performance of interdisciplinary research. It is hoped that these case studies will prove instructive both to students and other scholars as they perform interdisciplinary research. This introductory chapter does not provide a detailed overview of these case studies: Brief descriptions of each chapter are provided in the Preface, and a discussion of lesson...

Interdisciplinary Issues in Nanoscale Research

Great expectations and promises rest on interdisciplinarity in nanoscale research. Yet, although many science and engineering disciplines actually began to engage in this field, it is only poorly understood what interdisciplinarity actually is and what factors hinder and promote it. Part I provides an introduction to interdisciplinarity, its cognitive and social elements, and its related concep...
