Development of human enterovirus 71 nano calcium phosphate adjuvanted candidate vaccine for parenteral and mucosal delivery by Saeed Ahmed, Mohamed Ibrahim

“…In addition, an elevated post vaccination humoral immune response of a highly specific IgG and neutralizing antibodies was as shown in the in vitro inhibition of HEV71 live virus infectivity to Vero cell at the highest sample dilutions. Finally, the study finding is a key indicator for the role of nano-size adjuvant and carriers in augmenting the postvaccination immunity. …”

Structured sparse representations for supervised and unsupervised learning by Zeng, Yijie

“…For example, object detection requires filtering semantic objects from noisy and varying backgrounds, and the ImageNet challenge requires to build a classification model on top of over one million images. Finding good representations of data can not only improve the performance of ML systems, but also indicate proper choices of algorithms for different problems. …”

Evaluation of diabetic wound healing properties of moringa oleifera lam using in vitro and in vivo wound models by Muhammad Amali, Abubakar

“…The bioactive compounds present in aqueous fraction have also been successfully identified and confirmed by HPLC and LC-MS/MS using standard vicenin-2 compound. These findings suggested that, topical administration of bioactive aqueous fraction of M. oleifera containing Vicenin-2 compound may accelerate wound healing in hyperglycemic condition. …”

A machine-learned approach for reducing airborne delays and environmental impact in terminal manoeuvring area using extended arrival management by Lim, Zhi Jun

“…Results show that $65\%$ of TMA delays can be shifted to the cruise phase, saving 1.5 tonnes of fuel and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 4.8 tonnes for one day’s arrivals. The findings indicate that implementing an extended arrival manager in Singapore and Southeast Asia can effectively manage TMA congestion, reduce fuel consumption, and lower carbon dioxide emissions. …”
