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

“…Key to our re-imagining of conventional innovation structures is a focus on experience design, where joy and play serve as key strategies to help people and institutions build relationships across lines of difference. We conclude with a discussion of design principles applicable not only to designers of events, but to social movement researchers and HCI scholars trying to address oppression through the design of technologies and socio-technical systems.…”

New techniques for automated architectural reconstruction from photographs by Werner, T, Zisserman, A

“…Second, we develop and refine a technique for piecewise planar model fitting involving sweeping polygonal primitives, and assess the performance of this technique. Third, lines at infinity are constructed from image correspondences and used to sweep planes in the principal directions. …”

Experimental study on cache-performance optimization for graph storage by Foo, Wei Ling

“…This advantage is beneficial and applicable to graph traversal algorithms when closely related nodes are stored in a cache line. Hao Wei et al. [1] introduced a graph ordering algorithm, Gorder, a greedy procedure to reorder graph nodes in such a way that optimises their placement on a cache line. …”

Geometric hashing for camera based localization by Tan, Wei Chian

“…The most popular localization system now, Global Positioning System (GPS), is well known for its limitation in high rise urban areas due to difficulty in establishing line of sight to multiple GPS satellites. A vision or camera based localization system is an interesting alternative to consider for localization. …”

Optimizing geometry of extruded PMMA microstructured optical fiber preforms by Sia, Johnathan Seng Hong

“…The experiment runs conducted achieve high R-squared value during multiple regression line analysis. This indicate that the optimize parameter of 170.859°C and extrusion speed of 0.3mm/min predicted using the regression line model, has a high probability in achieving a straight preform with 12 clear and distinct hole.…”
