Shifting Paradigms: Data-Centric Approach for Marine Statics Correction using Symmetric Autoencoding by Kanniah, Brindha

“…The traditional workflow for correcting marine statics has been based on a model-centric paradigm. This paradigm involves a series of transformations between non-commensurate spaces: first, inversion from seismic data space to velocity model space and second, forward modeling from velocity model space to seismic data space. …”

Investigating Interventions in Fine-grained Contexts for Habit Formation by Khan, Mina

“…Fine-grained specific contexts are commonly used in habit formation, but interventions in automatically-detected fine-grained contexts have rarely been explored for habit formation. We investigate habit-formation using interventions in fine-grained mobile, physical-world and digital, computer-based contexts, making three key contributions for each: a survey to identify behavior change needs, a prototype system designed to deliver fine-grained context-specific interventions, and a study to investigate habit-formation using interventions in fine-grained contexts, compared to interventions in less fine-grained contexts. …”

Creative ageing in Singapore : a population study on participatory arts engagement and wellbeing among adults aged 50 and above by Ma, Stephanie Hilary Xinyi

“…While anecdotal and increasing empirical evidence suggest that participatory arts can play an essential role in supporting a healthy ageing population, much less research has been conducted in Asian societies. Furthermore, despite growing interest in arts programmes for older adults in Singapore, little is known about the patterns and impact of arts engagement among local seniors. …”
