Combined 2D and 3D features for robust RGB-D visual odometry by Cai, Pei

“…Some works attempt to address this issue by incorporating line features. However, these methods still extract line features merely based on 2D RGB images, resulting in a restricted utilization of the environment’s 3D structural information and therefore providing only limited performance improvement. …”

Share class structure and the efficiency of corporate takeover : experimental evidence by Lee, Pei Xuan, Siow, Zu Er, S, Roshini

“…Our experimental results demonstrated that it was less likely for an inefficient Raider to successfully takeover in an one-share-one-vote share structure. This result is in line with the theoretical predicted outcomes. On the other hand, in the case of an efficient Raider, our results were not in line with the theoretical model for the case of an efficient Raider. …”
