Computational Modelling of Tonality Perception

Developing and testing computational models of tonal harmony to explain listeners’ expectations and perceptions of musical resolution through psychoacoustic and cognitive principles.

Computational Musicology

This theme investigates musicological questions, in an empirical way, through the use both of algorithms and machine learning (in particular generative AI).

Critical information studies

Dialogue and information flow

This theme focuses on computational models of dialogue and information flow.

Direct Combination

Investigating Direct Combination as an interaction technique for connecting devices and resources, creating services and supporting flexible personalisation in mobile and pervasive computing.

Dynamic Earth

Our research focuses on quantifying the mechanisms and rates of key processes in the solid Earth system. We are at the forefront of developing analytical techniques to categorise the redistribution of economically important elements during crustal recycling. We use high-precision...

Earth System Modelling

The Earth system modelling group applies a range of modelling tools to address interdisciplinary problems. Using these tools we explore the impacts of climate change on the Earth system and human society in the past, present and future.

Ecosystems

Our Ecosystems research investigates the ecology of organisms from microbes to plants and mammals, how they interact with each other, their environment and with people.

Educational Research

The Educational Research Group conducts research and scholarship into teaching, learning and engagement across the Environment, Earth and Ecosystem Sciences.
