Fisher vector faces in the wild by Simonyan, K, Parkhi, O, Vedaldi, A, Zisserman, A

“…<br> This paper makes two contributions: first, and somewhat surprisingly, we show that Fisher vectors on densely sampled SIFT features, i.e. an off-the-shelf object recognition representation, are capable of achieving state-of-the-art face verification performance on the challenging “Labeled Faces in the Wild” benchmark; second, since Fisher vectors are very high dimensional, we show that a compact descriptor can be learnt from them using discriminative metric learning. …”

The intelligence of artifice: Oscar Wilde and AI by Tyson, C, Mendelssohn, M

“…The worship of artifice has long been a central thread in studies of modernity from aestheticism and decadence through postmodernism. Oscar Wilde has been a central figure in this conversation. …”

Cognitive training and mild cognitive impairment : a review by Chua, Xavier Cheng En, Seow, Jonathan Wei En, Tan, Huiting

“…Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is largely viewed as a pre-clinical stage in the trajectory of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) where the extent of cognitive decline is relatively mild, thus allowing for the application of earlier, more effective treatment. …”

Towards robust monocular depth estimation in the wild by Zheng, Zhenkai

“…This research project aims to create a robust monocular depth estimation model that is capable of predicting accurate relative depth maps in the wild. The project will highlight the significance of the training dataset used during supervised model training by comparing models trained with our new mixed dataset in the wild with a common open-source dataset such as NYU. …”

Wind characteristics of thunderstorms and their effects on wind loading design in Singapore by Choi, Edmund Cheong Chuen., Brownjohn, James Mark William., Chan, Weng Kong.

“…Singapore is situated in the equatorial belt where there are no severe tropical cyclones (typhoons). The monsoon winds over these regions are also mild. Thus, strong winds due to these weather systems are relatively less severe. …”

Discriminative deep metric learning for face verification in the wild by Hu, Junlin, Lu, Jiwen, Tan, Yap Peng

“…This paper presents a new discriminative deep metric learning (DDML) method for face verification in the wild. Different from existing metric learning-based face verification methods which aim to learn a Mahalanobis distance metric to maximize the inter-class variations and minimize the intra-class variations, simultaneously, the proposed DDML trains a deep neural network which learns a set of hierarchical nonlinear transformations to project face pairs into the same feature subspace, under which the distance of each positive face pair is less than a smaller threshold and that of each negative pair is higher than a larger threshold, respectively, so that discriminative information can be exploited in the deep network. …”

On hybridization between Theropithecus gelada and Papio anubis in the wild by Dunbar, RIM, Dunbar, P

“…Evidence is presented which suggests that <i>Theropithecus gelada</i> and <i>Papio anubis</i> may interbreed in the wild. The behavioural and ecological circumstances which give rise to this are discussed. …”

The paradoxes of wind power by Keay, M

“…The development of wind power in recent years has been full of paradoxes – and this is in itself something of a paradox, given that the power of the wind is easy enough to understand, indeed to experience directly, on a windy day. …”

Control co-design of a large offshore wind farm considering the effect of wind extractability by Pahus, ML, Nishino, T, Kirby, A, Vogel, CR

“…We present a prototype of a novel control co-design (CCD) method for large offshore wind farms. A traditional wind farm internal flow model using a Gaussian wake model and a Boolean yaw optimisation method is coupled, via the two-scale momentum theory, with an analytical model of 'wind extractability', to account for the farm-scale blockage effect that depends on the farm size and atmospheric boundary layer height. …”
