A micro-model for investigating the effective thermal property of a microscopically damaged interface by Choong, Li Xing

“…Properties of a material vary as external environment such as pressure and temperature changes. Each material has its physical properties that determine its’ conductivity and understanding these properties will enable better comprehension on how much heat is transferred. …”

A coordination framework for multi-agent persuasion and adviser systems by Subagdja, Budhitama, Tan, Ah-Hwee, Kang, Yilin

“…In contrast to conventional models that rely on natural language contents or direct multi-modal cues to align the dialogs, the proposed framework is built to be more practical allowing the agents to actively share their observation, goals, and plans to each other. This allows them to adapt the schedules, strategies, and contents of their scheduled advices or reminders at runtime with respect to each other's objectives. …”

Synergizing strategies: integrating fundamental, technical and news analysis for stock evaluation in energy & commodity market by Fang, Qian

“…These stocks are then divided into three categories based on their market capitalization. A deeper look at each group through the use of fundamental analysis metrics such as revenue, net income, price-to-earnings ratio, debt-to-equity ratio, and return on equity helps identify the top performers in each category for further analysis. …”
