Who Do You Think You Are? Creating RSE Personas from GitHub Interactions
We describe data-driven RSE personas: an approach combining software repository mining and data-driven personas applied to research software (RS), an attempt to describe and identify common and rare patterns of Research Software Engineering (RSE) development. This allows individuals and RS project teams to understand their contributions, impact and repository dynamics - an important foundation for improving RSE. We evaluate the method on different patterns of collaborative interaction behaviour…

On the Detection of Internal Defects in Structured Media
A critical issue that affects engineers trying to assess the structural integrity of various infrastructures, such as metal rods or acoustic ducts, is the challenge of detecting internal fractures (defects). Traditionally, engineers depend on audible and visual aids to identify these fractures, as they do not physically dissect the object in question into multiple pieces to check for inconsistencies. This research introduces ideas towards the development of a robust strategy to image such defec…
