From cosmos to cell: constructing a paradoxical selfhood through planetary and biological bodies in the poetry of Diane Ackerman and Jane Hirshfield by Tan, Jasmine Hui Jun

“…To date, research on literature and science have favored long-form writing and this thesis seeks to remedy that by investigating the utilization of biological metaphors to construct selfhood by understudied contemporary poets Diane Ackerman and Jane Hirshfield. …”

Sentiment analysis and summarization of movie reviews across genres. by Tun, Thura Thet.

“…However, this approach can only classify the sentiment orientation (i.e. positive or negative) of relatively long review documents. Therefore, a more sophisticated method for sentence-level sentiment analysis using a natural language processing and rule-based approach was developed. …”

Growth and physical properties of organic semiconducting single crystals by Tan, Ke Jie

“…High defect concentrations and grain boundaries cause hindrance to the charge carrier‘s transport. Relatively long radiative decay of excitons can be achieved in high quality Light Emitting Organic Field Effect Transistors (LEOFET) built from high charge carrier mobility materials. …”

Parallel and distributed algorithms for computational fluid flow simulations by Vu, Thanh Tung

“…Therefore, when the volume of input data increases significantly (e.g. the topographic data have higher resolutions), the excessively long simulation time becomes a major obstacle. Thus, distributed computing architectures have been explored to parallelize the computation scheme to speed up the simulation time for modelling. …”

Impact of interspecific competition on African wild dogs (Lycaon pictus) in an ecosystem with artificial perennial water provision by Sandoval Serés, ME

“…My main results show that: a) prey conservation mainly in low waterhole density areas is crucial to decrease food resource competition between African wild dogs with large predators (Chapter 2); b) areas with too high waterhole densities increased the kleptoparasitism risk on African wild dogs and hence the risk of agonistic encounters with dominant predators through an increase on the number of dominant predators arriving at playback locations (Chapter 3); c) African wild dogs preferred temporal partitioning over spatial partitioning to avoid large predators, and African wild dogs were able to co-occur in areas (rich in prey) with high aggregation and density of dominant predators as long as there were enough permanent waterhole densities (at least ~0.01 waterholes per km²) and not too high hyaena densities (above ~14 hyaenas/100km²) (Chapter 4). …”

Le cinéma d’Afrique noire contemporaine: une impossible décolonisation? by Fouhba, H

“…The latter campaigned for African filmmakers to appropriate their cinema, with a view to restoring the truth about the sociocultural, political and economic realities of the black continent, long falsified by the colonial camera. Vieyra and Sembène wanted to contribute to the birth and promotion of a decolonized African cinema, in which the virtues and cultural riches of Africa are extolled. …”
