Effects of multilingualism on brain structure, cognition and language processing by Yee, Jia’en

“…This is despite multilingualism being a common phenomenon in many parts of the world. Findings from past bilingual studies have shown patterns of volumetric expansions that are followed with reductions as language experience increases; possibly signifying renormalisation. …”

Adversarial robustness of deep reinforcement learning by Qu, Xinghua

“…Our frame-correlation transfers dramatically speed up the attack generation compared to existing methods, often significantly reducing the required computation time; thus, shedding light on the real threat of real-time attacks in RL. Last but not the least, to alleviate the vulnerability issue of DRL, in Chapter \ref{chapter:A2PD}, we propose an adversary agnostic defense approach in order to increase the robustness of existed DRL policies. …”

Hierarchical approach to study water cluster in first-principles calculations by Nguyen, Quoc Chinh

“…In addition, the effects of zero-point energy correction on the relative stabilities, thermodynamic properties and vibrational spectra of each system were discussed throughout the studies. Last but not least, we reported the details on the development of the potential models for protonated hydrogen fluoride and deprotonated water clusters in order to extend the current work to other molecular systems and also to improve the efficiency of the hierarchical approach for our future studies.…”
