Modeling of functional materials : perovskite solar cells by Aruj Shukla

“…However, for a more holistic analysis of perovskite light harvesters as replacement to the existing TiO2 nano particles, a more nuanced modeling and analysis which incorporates a study of transport properties such as trapping effects (for further spike in efficiency), photo catalytic reaction kinetics and surface & bulk defects (for easier fabrication) is demanded as an integral part of future research plans.…”

Time to fill up India’s strategic oil reserves by Narula, K

“…Although oil stocks are generally not released to manage oil prices (the IEA’s intention is to stabilize the market and release stocks only in case of physical shortages), it may be possible to use the stored oil to offset a spike in oil prices, especially for developing countries which have administered oil prices.…”

Modelling Malaysia air quality data using Bayesian Structural Time Series models by Aeshah Mohammed, Mohd Aftar Abu Bakar, Mahayaudin M. Mansor, Noratiqah Mohd Ariff

“…The BSTS model integrates three main techniques: The structural model, which employs the Kalman filter approach to model trend and seasonality components; spike and slab regression for variable selection; and Bayesian model averaging to estimate the best-performing prediction model while accounting for uncertainty. …”

Lead federated neuromorphic learning for wireless edge artificial intelligence by Yang, Helin, Lam, Kwok-Yan, Xiao, Liang, Xiong, Zehui, Hu, Hao, Niyato, Dusit, Poor, H. Vincent

“…This paper proposes a lead federated neuromorphic learning (LFNL) technique, which is a decentralized energy-efficient brain-inspired computing method based on spiking neural networks. The proposed technique will enable edge devices to exploit brain-like biophysiological structure to collaboratively train a global model while helping preserve privacy. …”

Coherently tunable triangular trefoil phaseonium metamaterial by Soci, Cesare, Nguyen, Duc Minh, Ooi, Raymond C. H.

“…For specific values of the probing frequencies and control fields, the phaseonium can display either metallic or dielectric optical response. We find that, in the metallic regime, the phaseonium metamaterial structure supports extremely large transmission, with optical amplification at large enough intensity of the microwave thanks to strong surface plasmon coupling; while, in the dielectric regime without microwave excitation, the transmission bandwidth can be tuned by varying the control beam intensity. …”

Rapid process modeling of the aerosol jet printing based on gaussian process regression with latin hypercube sampling by Zhang, Haining, Moon, Seung Ki, Ngo, T. H., Tou, J., Bin Mohamed Yusoff, M. A.

“…Hence, it is necessary to develop a small data set based machine learning approach to model relationship between the process parameters and the line morphology. In this paper, we propose a rapid process modeling method for AJP process and consider sheath gas flow rate, carrier gas flow rate, stage speed as AJP process parameters, and line width and line roughness as the line morphology. …”
