Deep learning and computer chess (part 2) by Lee, Zachary Varella Zheyu

“…This paper evaluates the efficacy of an MCTS-based engine in the area of chess. On top of the base MCTS engine, several enhancements were proposed and implemented, including early playout termination, progressive bias, progressive unpruning, decisive moves, epsilon-greedy search, score bounded Monte-Carlo tree search, and root parallelization. …”

Repulsive Casimir effect in Chern insulators by Tiang, Bi Hong

“…In this work, we investigate the possibility of achieving the repulsive Casimir effect between two identical Chern insulators in two directions, i.e. (i) small finite (non- zero) temperature effect on Casimir–Lifshitz interaction between 2D Chern Insulators with Chern number C = 1 and (ii) the zero temperature Casimir interaction between 2D Chern Insulators with higher Chern number C = 3, 4, 8. …”

Phononic real Chern insulator with protected corner modes in graphynes by Zhu, Jiaojiao, Wu, Weikang, Zhao, Jianzhou, Chen, Cong, Wang, Qianqian, Sheng, Xianlei, Zhang, Lifa, Zhao, Yuxin, Yang, Shengyuan A.

“…By using first-principle calculations and topology/symmetry analysis, we find that phonons in both graphdiyne and $\gamma$-graphyne exhibit a second-order topology, which belongs to the specific case known as real Chern insulator. We identify the nontrivial phononic band gaps, which are characterized by nontrivial real Chern numbers enabled by the spacetime inversion symmetry. …”

On a Chen–Fliess approximation for diffusion functionals by Litterer, C, Oberhauser, H

“…This allows to revisit and generalize the classic stochastic Taylor expansion to arrive at a Chen–Fliess approximation for smooth, path dependent functionals of SDEs with a corresponding L2 -error estimate.…”

An investigation of Chen Chong Swee’s practical colour application on selected paintings by Goh, Huiying

“…The artist-researcher/author makes use of histogram charts and 3D Munsell colour space generators to analyse how colours were used in the selected paintings. Formal and content analysis of Chen Chong Swee's paintings, writings and biography are conducted to provide social and cultural contexts behind the creation of these paintings. …”
