Robust and efficient deep learning methods for vision-based action recognition by Xu, Yuecong

“…While methods for extracting temporal features were proposed, these methods either require the computation or estimation of optical flow, which demand high computational power and large storage resource; or extracts only linear feature along the temporal dimension which results in inferior performances. …”

Differences in the effectiveness of individual-level smoking cessation interventions by socioeconomic status by Theodoulou, A, Fanshawe, TR, Leavens, E, Theodoulou, E, Wu, AD, Heath, L, Stewart, C, Nollen, N, Ahluwalia, JS, Butler, AR, Hajizadeh, A, Thomas, J, Lindson, N, Hartmann-Boyce, J

“…No studies on varenicline versus control were included. <p><b>Behavioural interventions </b></p> We found low‐certainty evidence of lower quit rates in lower compared to higher SES groups for print‐based self‐help (ROR 0.85, 95% CI 0.52 to 1.38; 3 studies, 4440 participants) and text‐messaging (ROR 0.76, 95% CI 0.47 to 1.23; from 3 of 4 studies, 5339 participants; 1 study reported no difference) versus control, indicating a possibly negative impact on health equality. …”

Fabrication and characterization of Algan/Gan high electron mobility transistors on silicon by Tham, Wai Hoe

“…Furthermore, excellent ION/IOFF ratio ~ 109 with a Subthreshold Swing of 71.42 mV/dec which are desirable for fast switching power applications, were observed in the fabricated devices. Therefore, we believe that the Au-free low temperature metal scheme has great prospects and potential in the fabrication of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs on Si platform. …”

Organic solid-state photochromism using porous scaffolds by Mollick, S, Tan, J-C

“…When exposed to light, organic photochromic molecules undergo a fast and reversible change in their electronic structure, resulting in a shift in colour. …”

Question-Led Innovation: public priorities for enhanced weathering research in Malaysia by Cox, E, Lim, R, Spence, E, Payne, M, Beerling, D, Pidgeon, N

“…When upscaling novel techniques for Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR), public attitudes are crucial, yet there is a serious lack of social science research outside of Western nations. …”
