Real time analysis of social behavior from video and kinect recordings by Ramasamy, Pandi Ramesh

“…Finally,analysis will be performed using pattern recognition algorithms and machine learning classifiers to detect the emotion of the subject.In this project,machine learning classifiers such as K-nearest neighbors,Naive Bayes and C4.5 Decision tree learning has been used. The prime aim is to pin point the most seemly machine learning classifier for obtaining highest accuracy for classification.…”

Deciphering the poisoning effect of sulfate on a perovskite-derived IrOxHy catalyst for water oxidation in acid by Seow, Justin Zhu Yeow, Chen,Yubo, Ge, Jingjie, Fisher, Adrian C., Xu, Jason Zhichuan

“…On the other hand, the inevitable degradation of the PEM can induce the release of sulfate ions, which could poison electrocatalysts. Herein, the poisoning effects of sulfate ions on a representative SrCo0.9Ir0.1O3-δ-derived IrOx Hy catalyst and a standard IrO2 are studied. …”

The inference-boundary model reinterpreting theme and rheme by Leong, Ping Alvin

“…The Hallidayan notions of theme and rheme pose an interesting challenge to linguists in their attempts to pin them down more specifically. This paper argues that since the thematic structure of the clause organises it as a message, a useful starting point in theme–rheme research is an understanding of how clausal messages are typically processed by language users. …”

The effects of processing conditions on the morphology of single conjugated polymers. by Yeo, Hui Lin.

“…Drop-cast single chains were proposed to either retain its extended conformation in CHCl3 solution, or adopt an ordered structure with hair-pin loops, giving rise to two corresponding distinct types of intensity traces. …”

Experimental and numerical study of self-locking adaptable inter connection for modular steel structures by Nadeem, Gohar, Safiee, Nor Azizi, Bakar, Nabilah Abu, Karim, Izian Abd, Mohd Nasir, Noor Azline

“…The findings indicated that the gap produced between connection and column under higher displacement was sensitive to the outer bolt and spring pin. This gap could be further reduced by increasing the number of outer bolts and by reducing tolerance between adapter and column walls.…”

Smart home control system design using internet of things based energy harvesting technology by Silalahi, Lukman Medriavin, Indrawan, Muhammad Rafi, Budiyanto, Setiyo, Hanafi, Dirman, Abdul Hamid, Abdul Hamid, Ronaldo, Davit

“…The objective of this research is to provide security for homeowners by facilitating fingerprints and PIN (Personal Identification Numbers) in entering the house, then in the event of a power outage, it activates the function of energy harvesting technology. …”

Modeling of plasma motion in a toroidal solenoid by Tu, Yuqiang.

“…Filtered Cathodic Vacuum Arc (FCVA) deposition technique has received extensive attention recently due to its unique feature: vacuum arc is generated at one end of a toroidal solenoid filter, in which those ions and electrons in the arc follow the force line of the magnetic field and pass through, while those neutral particles moving in straight lines are filtered away, and a "purified" plasma is obtained at the other end. …”

Taming nonclassical carbocations to control small ring reactivity by McNamee, RE, Frank, N, Christensen, KE, Duarte, F, Anderson, EA

“…For example, the solvolysis of cyclobutyl or cyclopropylmethyl derivatives generates up to four products on nucleophilic capture or elimination via cyclopropylcarbinyl and bicyclobutonium ions. Here, we show that such reaction outcomes can be controlled by subtle changes to the structure of nonclassical carbocation. …”

GWTC-2.1: Deep extended catalog of compact binary coalescences observed by LIGO and Virgo during the first half of the third observing run

“…We also expand the population of binaries with significantly asymmetric mass ratios reported in GWTC-2 by an additional two events (the mass ratio is less than 0.65 and 0.44 at 90% probability for GW190403_051519 and GW190917_114630 respectively), and find that two of the eight new events have effective inspiral spins χ eff > 0 (at 90% credibility), while no binary is consistent with χ eff < 0 at the same significance. …”
