NeuroTribes : The legacy of autism and how to think smarter about people who think differently / by Silberman, Steve, author 656044, Allen & Unwin (Online service) 656043

“…The perpetrators in Silberman’s telling are scientists, political leaders, and clinicians whose fixation on their interpretation of “normal” led to acts of deep cruelty and inhumanity against autistic people, deeds that span the spectrum from superficial to sadistic. The narrative arc is roughly chronological, stretching across time and highlighting some of the Big Non-autistic Names in autism’s long, strange and often terrible trip: Hans Asperger, Leo Kanner, Bruno Bettelheim, Bernard Rimland, Ole Ivar Lovaas, Lorna Wing. …”

Towards a Prime Factorization of Proteins by Radev, Simeon

“…This is particularly the case in the richly complex field of protein analysis, whereby unique and novel insights into the structural organization of proteins can help illuminate their functional space, and in particular lead toward a factorization of the structural space into a set of motif building blocks, which completely span this universe. This thesis creates a new inference interface for performing such analysis, by leveraging the sequential learning process of a neural autoencoder to construct a decomposition of proteins as a hierarchical sequence of embedded representation vectors. …”

On the higher-order edge toughness of a graph by Chen, C.C., Koh, K.M., Peng, Y.H.

“…Besides giving the of the cth-order edge toughness τc(G) of a graph G, we prove that 'τc(G)≥k if and only if G has k edge-disjoint spanning forests with exactly c components'. We also study the 'balancity' of a graph G of order p and size q, which is defined as the smallest positive integer c such that τc(G) = p/(p-c). © 1993.…”

Manufacturing AA6061 micro-molds by hot embossing for production of polymeric microfluidic devices by Tran, Nhat Khoa

“…Thus, the focus of this research is to investigate if an aluminum alloy micro-mold could be fabricated by hot-embossing using silicon (Si) master with acceptable cost, quality, and life span. By employing the appropriate processing parameters, experiments conducted indicate conclusively that the deformation mechanism of aluminum alloy 6061 (AA6061) in micro hot embossing is the plastic deformation of the grains themselves. …”
