A supervised two-channel learning method for hidden Markov model and application on lip reading by Foo, Say Wei, Dong, Liang

“…This method is specially designed to train HMMs for fine recognition from similar observations. The prominent features of this method are 1.) the criterion function is based on the difference between training sequences, and 2.) a twochannel structure is adopted to maintain the validity of the HMM. …”

Elastic modulus, hardness and creep performance of SnBi alloys using nanoindentation by Shen, Lu, Septiwerdani, Pradita, Chen, Zhong

“…At the intermediate stress region (200–370 MPa), dislocation climb is the dominant creep mechanism with stress exponents around 5–8. When fine lamellar structure is the dominant constituent of the microstructure, phase boundary sliding is identified as the rate-controlling mechanism in the low stress region (<200 MPa).…”

Public bus transit service modeling and optimization: from conventional to autonomous vehicles by Tian, Qingyun

“…In the first part, this thesis proposes a novel tri-level model for a transit service operation design problem that primarily determines the optimal bus line frequency setting. Unlike the existing studies, the strategy choices of passengers in presence of congested common lines are explicitly considered. …”

Anti-leukaemic and chemotherapy supportive effects of berberis vulgaris l. Fruit crude extract on in vitro and in vivo models by Saedi, Tayebeh Azam

“…For the in vitro method, cytotoxic effects of BVFCE were evaluated using MTT assay to determine the IC50 values and compare with non-leukaemic cell line (The 3T3 cell). Observation of the morphological changes in the treated leukaemic cell lines with BVFCE and Doxorubicin (Doxo) was examined using inverted microscope. …”
