An interactive control architecture for interpersonal coordination in mirror game by Zhai, Chao, Chen, Michael Z. Q., Alderisio, Francesco, Yu. Uteshev, Alexei, Di Bernardo, Mario

“…In this work, an interactive control architecture based on velocity segments is developed to generate the human-like trajectories in the mirror game, a simple yet effective paradigm for studying interpersonal coordination, and the existence of velocity segments possessing a prescribed signature is theoretically guaranteed. …”

Self-similar sketch by Vedaldi, A, Zisserman, A

“…The resulting collection of segments constitutes a "sketch" of the image. This is applied to the task of estimating vanishing points, horizon, and zenith in standard benchmark data, obtaining state-of-the-art results. …”

The Enggano-Dutch word list derived from Helfrich's (1916) “Nadere Bijdrage Tot de Kennis van Het Engganeesch” by Rajeg, GPW

“…This version (0.1.1) now includes the word list in a tab-separated file (.tsv) that has the following features (in the columns): (a) common/standardised transcription, also in segmented format (Columns form_common_transcription and form_common_segments); (b) phonemic transcription in segmented format (Column form_ipa_segments); (c) Indonesian translation of the English gloss using the deeplr R package (Column indonesian). …”

Effects of individual research practices on fNIRS signal quality and latent characteristics by Bizzego, Andrea, Carollo, Alessandro, Lim, Mengyu, Esposito, Gianluca

Characterization of artemisinin resistance in plasmodium falciparum by Rocamora, Frances Maureen C.

“…In order to better understand the Artemisinin resistance phenotype, we developed Artemisinin-resistant parasite lines derived from two isogenic clones (6A and 11C) of the 3D7 strain of Plasmodium falciparum using a selection regimen that mimics how parasites interact with the drug in infected patients. …”

Forces on oscillating uniform and tapered cylinders in a crossflow by Hover, F. S., Techet, A. H., Triantafyllou, M.S.

“…Calculation of the cross-correlation coefficient between forces at the two ends of the uniform cylinder reveals five distinct regimes as a function of the nominal reduced velocity Vrn: two regimes, for low and high values of Vrn, and far away from the value of VrS corresponding to the Strouhal frequency, show small correlation; two regimes immediately adjacent to, but excluding, VrS show strong correlation, close to 1; surprisingly, there is a regime containing the Strouhal frequency, within which correlation is low. …”

Character-aware audio-visual subtitling in context by Huh, J, Zisserman, A

“…Second, we show that the speaker of short segments can be determined by using the temporal context of the dialogue within a scene. …”

Posture control and balance for quality of walking in rehabilitation by Li, Lei

“…A torque-driven, five segments (two thigh segments, two shank segments and one trunk segments) forward dynamics simulation model is first used to study the human posture and passive stabilizing device control. …”

Sequential phreatomagmatic eruptions during the lateral propagation of giant dyke swarms by Pryce, E, Cartwright, J, Kirkham, C, Phillips, D

“…Craters are flanked by a tephra apron comprising reworked chalky sediments. The well data allow us to exclude crater forming mechanisms based on collapse into a void, but are consistent with those linked to phreatomagmatic eruption. …”

Promoting Singapore as a premier tourist destination by Koh, Hui Ling, Lim, Karen Wee Peng, Tan, Fiona Lay Choo

An anatomical study to control the movement of a beetle's hind leg through electrical stimulation of muscles by Yeong, Jun Hao

“…The experimental results shows that, the muscles that control a particular segment of the leg have to reside in the previous segment and the musculature structure in the femur allows greater translating of power during walking as compared to other segments of the hind leg. …”

Is social media really that effective for communicating budget policies to citizens? – a case study of the Singapore budget 2018 by Chin, Zhao Wei

“…Citizen feedback is collected using an online public survey, of which demographical factors such as age, educational qualifications and employment status were cross-tabulated and suggest that social media avenues such as Facebook may not be the best way to communicate budget policy to certain segments of the population. Moreover, there is a risk of investing too much focus on social media, such that other segments of the population may be neglected. …”

Characterisation of progenitor cells in human atherosclerotic vessels by Torsney, E, Mandal, K, Halliday, A, Jahangiri, M, Xu, Q

“…In the present study, a range of normal and atherosclerotic human arteries were collected from patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery. Segments of internal mammary artery (normal controls), and segments of proximal ascending aorta with visible fatty streak were analysed. …”

Using Sequenom to identify KRAS mutations in an Asian cohort of ovarian mucinous cancer by Tiong, Wen Ning

“…While there are distinct differences between mucinous epithelial ovarian cancer (mEOC) and the other subtypes of EOC, a standard treatment regimen is followed for all EOC histotypes. KRAS mutations have been observed to occur in relatively high frequencies of 50-60% in mEOC but not in other subtypes of EOC in at least three clinical studies. …”

First-line chemotherapy for advanced ovarian cancer: paclitaxel, cisplatin and the evidence by Sandercock, J, Parmar, MKB, Torri, V

“…Two of the reported trials (GOG-111 and the Intergroup trial) provide clear evidence that cisplatin combined with paclitaxel is a more effective regimen than one using the same dose of cisplatin combined with cyclophosphamide. …”

Criteria for Crack Formation and Air Invasion in Drying Colloidal Suspensions by Lilin, Paul, Bischofberger, Irmgard

“…We show that the pressure inside the deposit controls both the onset of crack formation and the onset of air invasion. Two distinct regimes of air invasion occur, which we can account for using the same model that further provides a quantitative criterion for the crossover between the two regimes.…”
