B-spline tight frame based force matching method by Yang, Jianbin, Zhu, Guanhua, Tong, Dudu, Lu, Lanyuan, Shen, Zuowei

“…In this paper, an L1-regularized least squares model is applied to form the force functions, which makes additional use of the B-spline wavelet frame transform in order to preserve the important features of force functions. …”

Lasso environment model combination for robust speech recognition by Xiao, Xiong, Li, Jinyu, Chng, Eng Siong, Li, Haizhou

“…We propose to estimate the weights by using Lasso (least absolute shrinkage and selection operator) which imposes an L1 regularization term in the weight estimation problem to shrink some weights to exactly zero. …”

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. …”

Dynamical analysis of physiologic signals by Noraznita Ramli.

“…ApEn is a measurement designed to quantify the degree of regularity versus unpredictability in a given dataset. [5] DFA is a fractal-related method that provides for estimation of scaling exponents. [6, 7] The purpose of applying these methods is to see whether such techniques based on dynamical analysis add information to conventional statistics.…”

Friendship and publishing in Geoffrey Brito’s Sol meldunensis: a collaborative gift book from Cirencester Abbey for Geoffrey, abbot of Malmesbury, 1246–60 by Dunning, ANJ

“…The regular canons of Cirencester Abbey and the monks of Malmesbury Abbey formed a literary exchange in the 1130s with Robert of Cricklade and William of Malmesbury. …”

Generalized RBF feature maps for efficient detection by Vempati, S, Vedaldi, A, Zisserman, A, Jawahar, CV

“…Furthermore, we investigate a learning method using l1 regularization to encourage sparsity in the final vector representation, and thus reduce its dimension. …”

Super-resolution enhancement of text image sequences by Capel, D, Zisserman, A

“…We then propose two estimators suitable for the enhancement of text images: a maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimator based on a Huber prior and an estimator regularized using the total variation norm. We demonstrate the improved noise robustness of these approaches over the Irani and Peleg estimator. …”

Finite element methods for multicomponent convection-diffusion by Aznaran, FRA, Farrell, PE, Monroe, CW, Van-Brunt, AJ

“…Developing a variational formulation for discretizing these equations is challenging: the formulation must balance physical relevance of the variables and boundary data, regularity assumptions, tractability of the analysis, enforcement of thermodynamic constraints, ease of discretization and extensibility to the transient, anisothermal and nonideal settings. …”

Learning to count objects in images by Lempitsky, V, Zisserman, A

“…Learning to infer such density can be formulated as a minimization of a regularized risk quadratic cost function. We introduce a new loss function, which is well-suited for such learning, and at the same time can be computed efficiently via a maximum subarray algorithm. …”

Control co-design of a large offshore wind farm considering the effect of wind extractability by Pahus, ML, Nishino, T, Kirby, A, Vogel, CR

“…We also introduce a 'gridded' turbine layout optimisation into the CCD, which allows us to quickly find optimal angles of the primary axes of a regular turbine array to maximise the annual energy production (AEP) of a given number of turbines at a given offshore farm site. …”

Malaysian teachers’ perceptions towards Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT): an analysis based on school level and subjects taught by Loo, Daron Benjamin

“…Based on these fi ndings, it can be concluded that while there is a perception that ERT is diff erent from regular online teaching, there remains challenges in the implementation of online classes. …”
