How do hawker vendors achieve upward social mobility despite low educational status? by Cheang, Joanne Zu Er, Khoe, Wei Jun, Lim, Yu Cheng

“…The results showed that hawkers need to embody cultural capital that includes grit, skill and knowledge, language to communicate with different customers, as well as embody sacrifice, multiple roles, experience and passion. Hawkers also have to deal with precarity in their job including the rising cost of food and rents, as well as finding a good location for their business. …”

Global monitoring of volcanic SO2 degassing with unprecedented resolution from TROPOMI onboard Sentinel-5 Precursor by Barrington, Charlotte, Taisne, Benoit, Theys, N., Hedelt, P., De Smedt, I., Lerot, C., Yu, H., Vlietinck, J., Pedergnana, M., Arellano, S., Galle, B., Fernandez, D., Carlito, C. J. M., Delgado-Granados, H., Loyola, D., Van Roozendael, M.

“…We report here the first volcanic SO2 measurements from the hyperspectral TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) launched in October 2017 onboard the ESA’s Sentinel-5 Precursor platform. Using the operational processing algorithm, we explore the benefit of improved spatial resolution to the monitoring of global volcanic degassing. …”

Are two teachers better than one? Team teaching in TBL by Yang, Lishan, Rajalingam, Preman

“…Teaching the medical sciences using team-based learning (TBL) is a complex task, which requires knowledge of both the subject matter and pedagogy. To deal with these increased demands on the teacher, a strategy where every TBL session is co-taught by a Content Expert and a Facilitator was implemented. …”

Identifying individuals in video by combining 'generative' and discriminative head models by Everingham, M, Zisserman, A

“…Whilst much work has been done on (mainly frontal) face detection and recognition, current methods are not sufficiently robust to deal with the wide variations in pose and appearance found in such video. …”

Single view reconstruction of curved surfaces by Prasad, M, Zisserman, A, Fitzgibbon, A

“…We increase modelling power in several ways: (i) We represent general 3D surfaces, rather than 2.5D Monge patches; (ii) We describe a closed-form method to reconstruct a smooth surface from its image apparent contour, including multilocal singularities ("kidney-bean" self-occlusions); (iii) We show how to incorporate user-specified data such as surface normals, interpolation and approximation constraints; (iv) We show how this algorithm can be adapted to deal with surfaces of arbitrary genus. We also show how the modelling process can be automated for simple object shapes and views, using a-priori object class information. …”

Estimating illumination direction from textured images by Varma, M, Zisserman, A

“…In this paper, we extend the theory to deal with cases of spatially varying albedo. First, we generalise the theory to explain why their method should work even for certain types of spatially varying albedo. …”

Opportunities for decarbonization in Russia by Sharmina, M

“…Most recently, tax breaks for shale oil have led to a series of new exploration contracts with international investors. A gas supply deal with China has been fast tracked and signed after a decade of negotiations.…”

Adaptive function modal learning neural networks by Kang, Miao

“…ADFUNN employs modifiable linear piecewise neuron activation functions and meanwhile adapts the weights using a modified delta learning rule. Experimental results show the single layer ADFUNN is highly effective at assimilating and generalising on many linearly inseparable problems, such as the Iris dataset, and a natural language phrase recognition task. …”
