GPU-based commonsense reasoning for real-time query answering and multimodal analysis by Tran, Ha Nguyen

“…Secondly, in order to reason and retrieve information on rule-based knowledge bases, the thesis introduces gSparql, a fast and scalable inference and querying method on mass-storage RDF data with rule-based entailment regimes. Our approach accepts different rulesets and executes the reasoning process at query time when the inferred triples are determined by the set of triple patterns defined in the query. …”

Towards electrically injected colloidal semiconductor lasers by Thung, Yi Tian

“…The NPL-VCSEL demonstrated a low lasing threshold of 21.6 W cm-2 with a single-mode Q-factor of 11800 under continuous-wave (cw) excitation, with good agreement between the cw-pumped lasing spectra and the ps pulse-pumped lasing spectra. to highlighting the NPL-VCSEL’s robustness under different optical pumping regimes, I demonstrated the NPL-VCSEL’s performance under continuous wave optical pump, affirming the suitability of the colloidal NPLs as the preferred gain medium to realize the desired electrically injected colloidal semiconductor lasers. …”

Studies on plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxial growth of GaN-based multilayer heterostructures on Si for photodetector application by Zheng, Yi

“…Tunability of band gap and the possibility of formation of heterostructures with group III-nitride materials allow the design of complex structures to detect both UV and infra-red (IR) spectral regimes (multi band) on a single chip. By growing AlGaN/GaN multiple quantum well layers, IR detector can also be obtained, which means IR and UV detector can be achieved using the same material. …”

离散、家国、女性 ： 韩素音的中国性论述 = Diaspora, home, feminism : the Chinese-ness in Han Suyin’s works by 梁依婷 Neo, Yi Ting

“…Han Suyin had once faced difficult choices in politics and livelihood, however she eventually chose to become the connection between different countries and willingly support the Chinese regimental changes. Her acknowledgement towards China and her awkward identity as a Chinese-European, is an interesting yet complicated case within China’s history, society and literature, and is of meaningful research value. …”

Enhancing quantum synchronization through homodyne measurement, noise, and squeezing by Shen, Yuan, Soh, Hong Yi, Fan, Weijun, Kwek, Leong Chuan

“…Homodyne measurement emerges as one of the successful candidates for this task but preferably in the semiclassical regime. In our work, we focus on the phase synchronization of a harmonic-driven quantum Stuart-Landau oscillator and show that the enhancement induced by homodyne measurement persists into the quantum regime. …”

A review of offshore decommissioning regulations in five countries – strengths and weaknesses by Fam, Mei Ling, Konovessis, Dimitris, Tan, Hoon Kiang, Ong, Lin Seng

“…Major differences lie in two overarching philosophies of the framework - a prescriptive regime versus a goal-setting regime. Other decommissioning aspects appear to attract increasing attention, such as in expanding clarity on in situ decommissioning, residual liabilities, optimising finance related issues of decommissioning and offshore to onshore waste movement. …”
