Nonreciprocal phenomena in superconductivity by Davydova, Marharyta

“…Nonreciprocal superconductors describe certain classes of unconventional superconductors that include certain kinds of mixed-pairing and finite-momentum ones. They also occur in engineered systems exhibiting s-wave pairing-based superconductivity, for which we put forward several simple proposals. …”

The practical rationality of purchasing life insurance by Yeo, Jasper Bo Wen

“…I will prove my thesis in two parts: I will show that it is rational to purchase critical illness coverage, and I will show that it is rational to purchase death coverage, therefore it is rational to purchase life insurance, a combination of the two. …”

Death and the doctor: the museum as a tool for understanding the needs of the dying by Harris, J, Moyse, A, Hadley, G, Frampton, S, Dempsey, A, Hordern, J, Saunders, K, Lane, R, De Luca, G

“…Over the past several years, the Ashmolean Museum at Oxford has been part of a multi- disciplinary team examining the question of how we train medical students to deal with those parts of their profession which are concerned primarily with the humanity of their patients. …”

3-way respiratory sound classification using machine learning algorithms by Tu, Yixuan

“…This project mainly focuses on two types of classification algorithms, one is to project the processed audio signal to a set of spatial points and use geometrical distance to divide them into three parts, the other is to use machine learning algorithms. …”

Video processing of ophthalmic image sequences by Ambarish, Sridhar Prakash

“…The aim of this project is to automatically process cataract surgery videos obtained from the OR, using image processing techniques, in order to evaluate surgeons. One measure of evaluation, proposed by this project is to segment the surgery video into parts based on the different procedures, thereby measuring the time and hence efficiency of the surgeon for the particular tasks. …”

Why has Singapore not achieved a full democratic transition, despite economic growth? A comparative case study of Singapore and Taiwan by Nur Shahira Binte Shahromey

“…Through this comparison, I posit that Singapore has not achieved full democracy because of a mixture of factors: certain historical events influenced the leadership to impose certain ideologies, leading to a one-party hegemony that has resulted in the lack of a strong enough civil society to push for democratisation.…”

Dry bulk freight market analysis and forecast under the yield management framework by Wu, Mengxia.

“…To put simply, yield management is profit maximization which is realized by subtracting costs from revenue. On one hand, a model of dry bulk freight rate is generated by a holistic study of dry bulk sea transport demand over supply which collectively set the freight level through capacity utilization ratio (CUR). …”

Scalable multiparty steering using a single entangled photon-pair by Pepper, Alex, Baker, Travis J., Wang, Yuanlong, Song, Qiu-Cheng, Shalm, Lynden K., Verma, Varun B., Nam, Sae Woo, Tischler, Nora, Slussarenko, Sergei, Wiseman, Howard M., Pryde, Geoff J.

“…However, beyond simple point-to-point protocols, existing methods struggle with increasingly complex state preparation for a growing number of parties. Here, we experimentally demonstrate multiparty detection-loophole-free quantum steering, where one party simultaneously steers multiple spatially separate parties, using a multi-qubit state produced from a set of qubits of which only one pair is entangled. …”

Partial grounding, identity, and nothing-over-and-aboveness by Werner, Jonas

“…The relationship between non-augmented partial grounding and nothing-over-and-aboveness crucially depends on whether one works with a representational or a worldly notion of grounding and how coarsely grained one takes worldly grounds to be.…”
