Augmenting machine learning to thermoelectric measurements : using Bayesian inference to infer electronic transport parameters from device level power-load data by Darmawan, Michael

“…Seebeck coefficient (S), electrical conductivity (), contact resistance (Rc), and error in temperature difference are inferred and presented in probability distribution. Along with these parameters, Bayesian inference helps to estimate the intrinsic properties of thermoelectric materials, such as energy depedent scattering, doping and weighted average mobility, which are very tedious to measure experimentally.…”

Supply chain resilience for global operations (1) : a rethink for a new paradigm (part II : transportation sector) by Koh, Choon Chin

“…Faced with unprecedented lockdowns and simultaneous shocks from both the demand and supply side, transportation providers must swiftly adapt to both environments as they struggle to keep up with surge in consumer online shopping and home deliveries whilst ensuring the reliability of their services as these new bottlenecks emerge.This research paper discusses the paradigm shift in global agri-food companies’ supply chain management and how they evolved due to the Coronavirus.In the past, supply chain optimization strategies have been the focus of many companies seeking to reduce costs along the supply chain. Such strategies help to reduce inventory and maximize asset utilization. …”
