Combinatorial algorithms for scheduling jobs to minimize server usage time by Ren, Runtian

“…The Flexible Job Scheduling problem aims at determining the starting times of flexible jobs that do not have to be started immediately at their arrivals to minimize the span of all the jobs, where the span is the time duration in which at least one job is running. In the non-clairvoyant online setting, we first show that no deterministic online scheduler can achieve a competitive ratio less than µ. …”

Two-dimensional metal-organic frameworks for gas sensing by Lister, AM

“…Beyond the processing and uniformity advantages, the fabricated MOF sensors are also able to operate at room temperature, whilst metal oxide semiconductor NH₃ sensors typically require operation temperatures of at least 150 °C. The electrochemically-synthesised MOF sensors showed enhanced linearity in response compared to the analogous sensors made from MOF powders, and would therefore make more reliable real-world sensors.…”

Rotor angle stability-constrained dispatch and control of large-scale wind penetrated power system by Yuan, Heling

“…In general, four main effects on power system transient stability are: 1) wind generation has no contribution to system inertia and system with synchronous generators replaced by wind turbines will lead to reduction of inertia, 2) power electronics converter-based interfacing is added when wind turbines are implemented, which will change the dynamic behavior of the system, 3) power dispatch of synchronous machines will change fast to compensate wind power variation, 4) the magnitude and direction of power flows will fluctuate quickly and randomly in the transmission lines. …”

Predicting glaucoma progression using deep learning framework guided by generative algorithm by Hussain, Shaista, Chua, Jacqueline, Wong, Damon, Lo, Justin, Kadziauskiene, Aiste, Asoklis, Rimvydas, Barbastathis, George, Schmetterer, Leopold, Yong, Liu

“…The patients were classified into two classes based on their VF mean deviation (MD) decline: slow progressors (< 3 dB) and fast progressors (> 3 dB). We showed that our generative model-based novel approach can achieve the best AUC of 0.83 for predicting the progression 6 months earlier. …”
