Cross-Modal Deep Variational Hashing by Liong, Venice Erin, Lu, Jiwen, Zhou, Jie, Tan, Yap Peng

“…We then design modality-specific neural networks in a probabilistic manner such that we model a latent variable to be close as possible from the inferred binary codes, at the same time approximated by a posterior distribution regularized by a known prior, which is suitable for out-of-sample extension. …”

The effects of gender and gain versus loss frame on processing breast cancer screening messages by Kim, Hyo Jung

“…This current study investigated how the gain versus loss framing effect would be moderated by gender of message recipients in the context of breast cancer screening (BCS) intervention that promotes both men and women to recommend regular BCS to their close women. A 2 (male vs. female) x 2 (gain vs. loss) between-subject experiment was conducted using 128 African American participants (mean age = 45.9). …”

Enhancing accuracy and efficiency in stiff ode integration using variable step diagonal bbdf approaches by Ibrahim, Zarina Bibi, Mohd Ijam, Hazizah, Aksah, Saufianim Jana, Abd Rasid, Norshakila

“…The new scheme leverages an adaptive step-size strategy to refine accuracy and efficiency between regular and off-grid integration steps. Theoretical analysis confirms that the proposed scheme is an A-stable and convergent method, as it satisfies the fundamental criteria of consistency, zero-stability, and A-stability. …”

Security enhancement of fingerprint authentication by Alias, Joe

“…Although no formal definition of image texture exits, intuitively this provides a measure of properties such as surface smoothness, coarseness, and regularity. The variations in making a fake finger cause the creation of a much coarser surface in the case of a fake finger.…”

Randomness and early termination: what makes a game exciting? by Guo, G, Howison, S, Possamai, D, Reisinger, C

“…We prove its wellposedness and regularity of its solution by combining PDE analysis and probabilistic tools, in particular the reformulation as a stochastic control problem with restricted control set, which allows us to deduce strict ellipticity. …”

REACH story of change: cleaning the tap: tap hygiene for safer drinking water by REACH

“…Evidence from Bangladesh suggests that regular cleaning of water point spouts and taps could substantially reduce this figure, even halving the number of contaminated handpumps.…”

Distributed momentum based multi-agent optimization with different constraint sets by Zhou, X, Ma, Z, Zou, S, Margellos, K

“…Simulations on an ℓ1-regularized logisticregression problem show that the proposed algorithm can achieve faster convergence than existing related distributed algorithms, while a case study involving a building energy management problem further demonstrates its efficacy.…”

On affine invariant clustering and automatic cast listing in movies by Fitzgibbon, A, Zisserman, A

“…In addition, we incorporate prior probabilities on the transformation parameters. This further regularizes the solution, mitigating arare but serious tendency of the existing solutions to diverge. …”
