A theory of zeugma by Yeo, Jia Qi

“…I then identify basic structures for the three subtypes of nominal, verbal and adjectival zeugma, and consolidate several disparate concepts previously mentioned in relation to zeugma, including homonymy, regular and irregular polysemy, and Segmented Discourse Representation Theory. I also consider the siting of elegant zeugma within its surrounding written discourse as a crucial complement to the usual approach of analysing word relations within the utterance. …”

Real-time human detection for surveillance applications by Hoe, Qi Xiang

“…The overall accuracy has improved with the enhancement of using additional feature of magnitude inclusive for the HOG computation and further enhanced with the aid of additional features of magnitude inclusive and limitation of magnitude for the HOG computation. Furthermore, segmentation has been performed on the head and body of the human figure for the purpose of system integration with the biometrics’ description. …”

Cell charactetization in differnet regions of the native annulus fibrous in a porcine intervetebral disc model through cell sorting and molecular analysis by Teo, Tong

“…The factors that lead to low back pain are complex, there has been more evidence that shows that intervertebral disc degeneration serves as a major contributor leading to the destabilization of the spinal motion segment hence resulting in pain and disability. Current treatments include conservative ones such as the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for short term relief and surgical ones such as spinal fusion to alleviate pain caused by IVD degeneration. …”

An investigation on the role of tarsal flexibility in insect walking by Tjuatja, Johan

“…Although there is a wealth of literature on various physical properties of insect leg, such as strength and inner structure, there seems to be a lack of knowledge on the functions or roles of the individual leg segments, such as the tarsus. While the tarsus has been long known to be flexible, there has currently been no study that explains what the purpose of this flexibility is in insect leg. …”
