A survery on CNN transfer learning for image classification by Teo, Jia Sheng

“…In addition, the author has made a comparison with 15 pre-trained Transfer Learn- ing models. From the comparisons done on the small food dataset and a larger sized Caltech101 dataset, the author concluded that the dataset is one of the main deter- minants of a model’s performance, and deeper CNN model architectures does not necessarily guarantee better results.…”

Hackathons as Participatory Design: Iterating Feminist Utopias by Hope, Alexis, D'Ignazio, Catherine, Hoy, Josephine, Michelson, Rebecca, Roberts, Jennifer, Krontiris, Kate, Zuckerman, Ethan

“…Our work contributes to a growing literature around making hackathons more inclusive and accessible, designing participatory processes that center marginalized voices, and incorporating systems- and relationship-based approaches to problem solv-ing. By presenting an honest assessment of the successes and shortcomings of the first iteration of a hackathon, we explain how we re-structured the second Make the Breast Pump Not Suck hackathon in service of equity and systems design. …”

Active learning with applications in biomedical document annotation by Han, Xu

“…In this study, we first propose a document scoring based active learn- ing method for ontological event extraction. Our method can signif- icantly reduce the amount of annotated corpora to saturate event ex- traction performance, compared to random selection of corpora for annotation, which is the common practice, and previous active learn- ing methods for corpus selection. …”

Design and 3D printing of reconfigurable structures by Teo, Ee Hian

“…The structure is made up of single modular units being repeatedly fixed together, this leads to the structure to isolate single modular units that are damaged, allowing it to be easily pin-pointed and replaced by fabricating another similar single unit, this cut cost as the structure can be salvaged by replacing a single unit instead of the whole structure.…”
