Online object detection and tracking by Ooi, Jun Han.

“…By using HOG feature extraction algorithm, a database containing positive (vehicle’s features) and negative (background features) histograms (540 bins) is generated. During the tracking stage, the vehicle’s coordinate is predicted using mean-shift algorithm. …”

Progressive collapse of reinforced concrete building structures by Dat, Pham Xuan

“…The associated rotationally-restrained but laterally-unrestrained boundary condition of the test specimens was effected by a set of pinned-end supporting columns. Uniformly distributed loads were simulated by a twelve-point loading system. …”

Unifying statistical texture classification frameworks by Varma, M, Zisserman, A

“…First, we show that there is a correspondence between the two common representations of filter outputs—textons and binned histograms. Second, we show that two classification methodologies, nearest neighbour matching and Bayesian classification, are equivalent for particular choices of the distance measure. …”

Development of interactive software (shear force and bending moment) by Wong, Jun Yan

Comparative study of composite scarf and strap joints for equivalent repair signature under uniaxial tension by Srinivasan, Dharun Vadugappatty, Padma, S. Ravisankar, Idapalapati, Sridhar

“…Herein, different repair designs based on 8.6° scarf, thin CFRP strap (0.5 mm and 1.1 mm), 0.5 mm thin Ti-6Al-4V straps (with and without pins) are used in bonding CFRP composites, their repair strength is measured through tensile testing. …”

Tiny Pointers by Bender, Michael, Conway, Alex, Farach-Colton, Martin, Kuszmaul, William, Tagliavini, Guido

“…Our tiny-pointer constructions also require us to revisit several classic problems having to do with balls and bins; these results may be of independent interest. …”

Producing microscale Ge textures via titanium nitride- and nickel-assisted chemical etching with CMOS-compatibiliyty by Liao, Yikai, Shin, Sang-Ho, Jin, Yuhao, Wang, Qi Jie, Kim, Munho

“…Schottky contact barrier of metal catalyst with Ge is also investigated indicating similar hole injection efficiency among TiN, Ni, and Ti/Ni with Ge junction due to strong Fermi level pinning effect. The TiN- and Ni-assisted chemical etching of Ge shed light on CMOS-compatible Ge-based photonic and optoelectronic applications.…”

Novel method of probe design for characterising unclassified microbial taxa in wastewater by Tan, Shi Ming

“…Shimingles; distinct clades were in line with two draft genomes recovered through genomic binning. The two genomic bins were recovered with a size of 4.92 Mbp and 4.49 Mbp respectively, and a completeness of more than 90% and a contamination of less than 4%. …”

Geometric hashing for camera based localization by Tan, Wei Chian

“…During pre-processing, VCLH signature obtained from each camera pose in the 2D map is quantized into bins and inserted into a two dimensional (2D) hash table. …”

Calibration and limits of camera-based fluorescence correlation spectroscopy : a supported lipid bilayer study by Bag, Nirmalya, Sankaran, Jagadish, Paul, Alexandra, Kraut, Rachel Susan, Wohland, Thorsten

“…Using optimized experimental conditions we provide diffusion coefficients for over ten different lipid membranes consisting of one, two and three constituents, measured in over 200000 individual correlation functions. Using software binning and thus the inherent advantage of ITIR-FCS of providing multiple observation areas in a single measurement we test the FCS diffusion law and show how they can be complemented by the local information provided by the difference in cross-correlation functions (ΔCCF). …”

Fourier transform-based scalable image quality measure by Narwaria, Manish, Lin, Weisi, McLoughlin, Ian Vince, Emmanuel, Sabu, Chia, Clement Liang-Tien

“…We accommodate this fact via a simple yet effective strategy of non-uniform binning of the frequency components. This process also leads to reduced space representation of the image thereby enabling the reduced-reference (RR) prospects of the proposed scheme. …”

Measurements of the CKM angle γ at the LHCb experiment by Cheung, S

“…The subsequent <em>D</em> meson decays to the <em>K</em>_S⁰π⁺π⁻ and <em>K</em>_S⁰<em>K</em>⁺<em>K</em>⁻ final states are studied using a binned Dalitz plot analysis. The <em>D</em> strong-phase variation over the Dalitz plot is taken from measurements performed at the CLEO-c experiment, making the analysis independent of a model to describe the <em>D</em> decay amplitude. …”

Developing a lightscape application (using a raspberry PI) by Ong, Wenchuan

“…The project aims to develop a web application, which will be hosted within the Raspberry Pi, for controlling the brightness of constant light source from the high power LED via the Raspberry Pi’s General Purpose Input Output (GPIO) pins and gather optimal settings for projecting images with the Light Blaster. …”

Additive friction stir processing by Lin, Longyi

“…The continuous dynamic recrystalisation during FSP also gave finer grains, which was further enhanced with the addition of CNTs through Zener pinning effect. The improvement in tensile strengths due to finer grains through the Hall-Petch mechanism was insufficient to compensate for the drop in Orowan strengthening. …”

Open-RadVLAD: fast and robust radar place recognition by Gadd, M, Newman, P

“…As the original radar signal is in the form of received power in discretised range bins, we also show experimentally that taking a radial Fourier Transform in this way and matching based on spatial frequencies present in the power signal leads to better performance – leading to a 7% to 8% improvement in localisation success (Section IV and Table II). …”
