Learning stock market dynamics using the kinetic ising model by Nguyen, Ai Linh

“…In this approach, the states in the time series data are represented by configurations of N spins, and the time evolution of these states in the time series data by an update rule that depends on the spin configuration {σ_i (t)}_(i=1,…,N), and the connection weights {W_ij }_(i,j=1,…N) between the spins. …”

Synaptic CMOS transistor by Chai, Zhen Hong

“…In this work, electrical measurements were conducted on commercial level TiN/HfO2 gated n-channel MOSFET transistor (with an equivalent oxide thickness of 1.7nm) to demonstrate that it can exhibit some critical synaptic characteristics of a biological synapse such as excitatory and inhibitory postsynaptic current (EPSC and IPSC), short-term plasticity (STP) and long-term potentiation (LTP), metaplasticity, and spike timing dependent plasticity (STDP). …”

Synaptic devices towards neuromorphic electronics by Datta, Indira

“…This report examines potentially brain-like structures and their cognitive behaviour including learning, forgetting, and relearning, as well as synaptic behaviour such as short and long-term plasticity. Area Transfer curves, gate voltage hysteresis loops, and multilevel resistance modulation were studied, and biological functions including long-term potentiation and Depression (LTP and LTD), Excitatory and Inhibitory Postsynaptic Current (EPSC and IPSC), Spike Amplitude and Duration Dependent Plasticity (SADP and SDDP), Paired Pulse Facilitation and Depression (PPF and PPD), and repeated learning and forgetting curves were emulated by our novel device. …”

A meta-analysis of functional neuroimaging studies of dyslexia in alphabetic words and chinese characters. by Kwok, Fu Yu.

“…Results from the Chinese language meta-analysis study replicates the results from previous empirical studies showing low activation primarily in areas such as the left middle frontal gyrus and the right middle occipital gyrus (Liu et al., 2012; Siok, Niu, Jin, Perfetti, & Tan, 2008; Siok, Perfetti, Jin, & Tan, 2004; Siok, Spink, Jin & Tan, 2009; Yang, 2005). In addition, functional neuroimaging single studies examining the effect of dyslexia in both alphabetical languages and Chinese language have shown that there are differences in the brain activations between these languages (Paulesu et al., 2001; Richlan et al., 2010; Siok et al., 2004). …”

Investigating viral glycosylation pathways for drug and vaccine development by Brun, J

“…Chapter 4 focuses on the site-specific glycosylation occupancy, and N- and O-glycan structures attached to virion derived SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoproteins. This glycan signature was compared to a stabilised prefusion trimeric spike, to a monomeric subunit of spike (S1) and to an antigen of a non-stabilised vaccine candidate, revealing subunit shedding of the S1 glycoprotein for the vaccine candidate. …”

The theory of complex network sensing. by Wang, Yidan.
