Laser scanning imaging system for underwater robotics vehicle by Xu, Lin

“…It focuses on highly turbid water condition, and assumes that forward and backward scattered fluxes uniformly fill all forward and backward directions. When a light beam is being expanded, the total flux received by a camera increases, and backscattered component increases faster than the correctly transmitted (or desired) component. …”

Role of different dendritic cell subsets in vivo by Abdul Rashid Mohammad Muzaki

“…In a dextran sodium sulphate (DSS) model of colonic inflammation, ablation of CD103+ CD11b- colonic DCs resulted in exacerbated colitis, while ablation of colonic CD103+ CD11b+ DCs resulted in resistance to colitis when subjected to the same DSS regiment. Hence our results highlight the opposing roles of these two distinct colonic DC subsets in controlling DSS-induced colonic inflammation. …”

Learning stock market dynamics using the kinetic ising model by Nguyen, Ai Linh

“…We fitted the stock returns of 30 Dow Jones companies in 2014 from Yahoo finance, and also to 16 artificial data sets generated using the kinetic Ising model resulting in 32 final average weights matrices, to understand the limitations of using the fitted model to do predictions. We find that when we perform static forecasting, i.e. one-step ahead only, the prediction accuracy can as high as 77.60% for a Dow Jones stock and 98.49% for an artificial data.…”
