Relevancy rankings : pay for performance search engines in the hot seat by Goh, Dion Hoe-Lian, Ang, Rebecca P.

“…A study was conducted to compare the retrieval effectiveness of Overture (a PFP search engine) and Google (a traditional search engine) using a test suite of general knowledge questions. Forty-five queries based on a popular game show “Who Wants to be a Millionaire” were submitted to each of these search engines and the first 10 documents returned were analyzed using different relevancy criteria. …”

Fatigue investigations on steel pipeline containing 3D coplanar and non-coplanar cracks by Xiao, Zhongmin, Zhang, Wengang, Zhang, Yanmei, Fan, Mu

“…Fluctuated loadings from currents, waves and sea ground motions are observed on offshore steel pipelines, and they will result in small cracks to propagate continuously and cause unexpected damage to offshore/geotechnical infrastructures. In spite of the availability of efficient techniques and high-power computers for solving crack problems, investigations on the fatigue life of offshore pipelines with 3D interacting cracks are still rarely found in open literature. …”

Accumulated decoupled learning with gradient staleness mitigation for convolutional neural networks by Zhuang, Huiping, Weng, Zhenyu, Luo, Fulin, Toh, Kar-Ann, Li, Haizhou, Lin, Zhiping

“…As a new learning scheme, the proposed ADL is theoretically shown to converge to critical points in spite of its asynchronism. Extensive experiments on CIFAR-10 and ImageNet datasets are conducted, demonstrating that ADL gives promising generalization results while the state-of-theart methods experience reduced generalization and divergence. …”

Egg development, hatching, and larval development of Marble Goby Oxyeleotris marmoratus under artificial rearing conditions by Senoo, Shigeharu, Kaneko, Masaharu, Cheah, Sin Hock, Ang, Kok Jee

“…All embryonic heads were located at the basal part of the egg and this was taken as normal egg development for O. marmoratus. In spite of their well-developed eyes and mouths, and the fact that they exhibited the active S-posture, the larvae did not feed on artificial powdered feed or Brachionus spp. for 4--6 days (d) AF, and the mortality before the feeding of Brachionus spp. was much higher than that of the later stages. …”
