“…The remarkable success of lead halide perovskites (LHPs) in photovoltaics and other optoelectronics is significantly linked to their defect tolerance, although this correlation remains not fully clear. …”

Automated detection and localization of myocardial infarction with staked sparse autoencoder and TreeBagger by Zhang, Jieshuo, Lin, Feng, Xiong, Peng, Du, Haiman, Zhang, Hong, Liu, Ming, Hou, Zengguang, Liu, Xiuling

“…Novel techniques in deep learning networks are proposed for the staked sparse autoencoder (SAE) and the bagged decision tree (TreeBagger), achieving significant improvement in detection and localization of myocardial infarction (MI) from single-lead electrocardiograph (ECG) signals. With our layer-wise training strategies, the SAE-based diagnostic feature extraction network can automatically and steadily extract the deep distinguishing diagnostic features of the single-lead ECG signals and avoid the vanishing gradient problem. …”

The use of "soft" and "hard" approach in the management of educational research projects by Riduan Mazlan.

“…These assumptions do not apply to "soft" projects like research projects, setting them apart from the rest so much so that adopting "hard" approaches can lead to failure. Yet, there are some who believe that not all of those "hard" approaches are useless in the "soft" domain. …”

Normative and informational confidence matching by Friedemann, M, Bang, D, Yeung, N

“…The results demonstrate that both factors can lead to confidence matching. In a setting devoid of feedback, participants matched their confidence reports with their partner’s and modified their information seeking behaviour — a proxy for private confidence — accordingly, pointing towards the role of informational factors. …”

Pnictogen-halide semiconductors for photovoltaics by Liu, P

“…The Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithm was able to identify processing parameters that gave pinhole free morphology, but more data on continuous variables could potentially lead to extrapolation of parameters that lead to better thin films with larger grain sizes. …”

Vapour deposition of metal halide perovskite semiconductors by Yuan, Q
