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. …”

Pivoting upon the Straw-headed Bulbul as a metaphor to conceptually explore obscure narratives and tales — Tanah di Bawah Angin is a critical discourse within myself to understand and unpack my rich Malay history that is fading away.…”
