Self-Assembly of a Biologically Plausible Learning Circuit by Liao, Qianli, Ziyin, Liu, Gan, Yulu, Cheung, Brian, Harnett, Mark, Poggio, Tomaso

“…Over the last four decades, the amazing success of deep learning has been driven by the use of Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) as the main optimization technique. The default implementation for the computation of the gradient for SGD is backpropagation, which, with its variations, is used to this day in almost all computer implementations. …”

Study of risk management adoption on firm value as effected by board's independence. by Chen, Kaiyu., Hwee, Andrew Ji-Feng., Toh, Han Boon.

“…Given the lack of prior empirical studies done with regards to the relationship between the varying degree of risk management adoption and firm value, we build upon our studies based on the postulations of Meulbroek (2002) and also other prior discussions of risk management and corporate governance with firm value. The main implication of our research is that the emergence and growing importance of risk management is not unfounded. …”

On efficient solution of large-size wire-grid structures in a complex environment by Lee, Yee Hui.

“…In the MoM, solving the impedance ma-trix equation becomes extremely computational time and memory intensive when the problem is large. Therefore, the main purpose of using these techniques is to break the bottle-neck existing in the MoM by either reducing the density or the order of the impedance matrix. …”

Probabilistic prediction of solar PV power output by Ang, Sherman Jun Xiong

“…However, due to its stochastic and highly uncertain nature, the integration of solar energy faced quite a significant amount of challenges in its integration to the modern power grids, especially in the aspect of operation and control where it did not have much significant impact on the power control system. The main reason was that a proper forecasting method to control the variability and uncertainty of the power output was not in place. …”

Construction and classification of group invariant Butson Hadamard matrices by Wong, Dai Quan

“…Our focus is on abelian p-groups since one can obtain group invariant Butson Hadamard matrices for larger groups by using Kronecker products. The main areas of study we have identified are: • The existence and the construction of group invariant Butson Hadamard matrices • The non-existence and the necessary conditions for their existence • The classification of group invariant Butson Hadamard matrices Our contribution to this study is the outline of five types of constructions of group invariant Butson Hadamard matrices, a new necessary condition for existence under the self-conjugacy assumption and the classification of Butson Hadamard matrices which are invariant under the groups ℤₚ × ℤₚ and ℤₚ₂ × ℤₚ × ℤₚ.…”
