0-1 Knapsack in Nearly Quadratic Time by Jin, Ce

“…Recent research interest has focused on its finegrained complexity with respect to the number of items 𝑛 and the maximum item weight 𝑤max. Under (min, +)-convolution hypothesis, 0-1 Knapsack does not have𝑂( (𝑛+𝑤max) 2−𝛿 ) time algorithms (Cygan-Mucha-Węgrzycki-Włodarczyk 2017 and Künnemann-PaturiSchneider 2017). …”

Effect of heat treatment on repetitively scanned SLM NiTi shape memory alloy by An, Jia, Liu, Yong, Khoo, Zhong Xun, Chua, Chee Kai, Shen, Yu Fang, Kuo, Che Nan

“…The results showed an improvement when the samples were heat treated at a temperature of 400 °C for a period of 5 min. The enhancement in the shape memory behavior of the repetitively scanned samples was mainly attributed to the formation of fine Ni4Ti3 metastable precipitates.…”

Animating Singapore : the complex expression of Singapore's contemporary daily life and culture through animation by Goh, Wei Choon

“…The theoretical research will investigate the complex expression of daily life and culture (Singapore and foreign alike) through case studies and literature about existing animated works, while the practical part attempts to create a film abiding by the observations gleamed from the theoretical portion, and vice versa. This practical component will focus on expressing the deeper, more complex aspects of Singapore daily life through the creation of an animated film, which will seek to express mainly the kaleidoscopic sociocultural landscape of Singapore through the depiction of people on the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) railway. …”

SimSC: a simple framework for semantic correspondence with temperature learning by Li, X, Han, K, Wan, X, Prisacariu, VA

“…We discover that when fine-tuning ImageNet pre-trained backbone on the semantic matching task, L2 normalization of the feature map, a standard procedure in feature matching, produces an overly smooth matching distribution and significantly hinders the fine-tuning process. …”

Effects of hydrogen flowrate on carbon nanotube production at low temperature via floating catalyst chemical vapor deposition method by Zadeh, Elmira Habashi

Field instrumentation for performance assessment of Geobarrier System by Rahardjo, Harianto, Qian, Zhai, Satyanaga, Alfrendo, Leong, Eng Choon, Wang, Chien Looi, Wong, Johnny Liang Heng

“…The saturated hydraulic conductivity of a coarse-grained material is normally higher than that of a fine-grained material. However, the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of the coarse-grained material decreases much faster than that of the fine-grained material with increasing matric suction and consequently the coarse-grained material can be less permeable than the fine-grained material in unsaturated condition. …”

Segregated interactions in urban and online space by Dong, Xiaowen, Morales, Alfredo J., Jahani, Eaman, Moro, Esteban, Lepri, Bruno, Bozkaya, Burcin, Sarraute, Carlos, Bar-Yam, Yaneer, Pentland, Alex

“…Furthermore, we find that segregation increases with difference in socio-economic status but is asymmetric for purchase activity, i.e., the amount of interaction from poorer to wealthier neighborhoods is larger than vice versa. Our results provide novel insights into the understanding of behavioral segregation in human interactions with significant socio-political and economic implications.…”

Mechanical problem solving by plush-crested jays: are tools special after all? by Lois-Milevicich, J, Rat-Fischer, L, de la Colina, MA, Gómez, RO, Reboreda, JC, Kacelnik, A

“…This association, however, is not known to be causally determinant of tool-related competence since flexibility and innovativeness are often observed in the absence of tool use and vice versa. For this reason, it is interesting to explore whether animals that can be loosely categorized as outstanding, or ‘intelligent’ physical problem solvers, are also remarkable using tools innovatively, rather than tool use presenting special constraints. …”
