Transfer-recursive-ensemble learning for multi-day COVID-19 prediction in India using recurrent neural networks by Chakraborty, Debasrita, Goswami, Debayan, Ghosh, Susmita, Ghosh, Ashish, Chan, Jonathan H., Wang, Lipo

“…A study is conducted by building four models pre-trained on COVID-19 data from four different countries (United States of America, Brazil, Spain, and Bangladesh) and fine-tuned on India's data. Since the four countries chosen have experienced different types of infection curves, the pre-training provides a transfer learning to the models incorporating diverse situations into account. …”

The effects of processing conditions on the morphology of single conjugated polymers. by Yeo, Hui Lin.

“…The photoluminescent lifetime of spun-cast single regioregular poly (3-hexylthiophene) (RR P3HT) was found to be significantly larger (2 – 3.5ns) than that of drop-cast chains and that in solution (<0.5ns), which likely implies a chain conformational dependence on the processing method used. …”
