A study on epidemic modelling using deterministic and stochastic SIR compartmental models by Lim, Lionel Rui Qi

“…Among all networks considered, the BA network in particular has shown to consistently demonstrate spikes in epidemic reproduction at the onset, suggesting higher vulnerability to epidemic spreading for real-world communal structures with properties akin to the BA network. …”

Calibration and limits of camera-based fluorescence correlation spectroscopy : a supported lipid bilayer study by Bag, Nirmalya, Sankaran, Jagadish, Paul, Alexandra, Kraut, Rachel Susan, Wohland, Thorsten

“…Using optimized experimental conditions we provide diffusion coefficients for over ten different lipid membranes consisting of one, two and three constituents, measured in over 200000 individual correlation functions. Using software binning and thus the inherent advantage of ITIR-FCS of providing multiple observation areas in a single measurement we test the FCS diffusion law and show how they can be complemented by the local information provided by the difference in cross-correlation functions (ΔCCF). …”

Fourier transform-based scalable image quality measure by Narwaria, Manish, Lin, Weisi, McLoughlin, Ian Vince, Emmanuel, Sabu, Chia, Clement Liang-Tien

“…We accommodate this fact via a simple yet effective strategy of non-uniform binning of the frequency components. This process also leads to reduced space representation of the image thereby enabling the reduced-reference (RR) prospects of the proposed scheme. …”

Measurements of the CKM angle γ at the LHCb experiment by Cheung, S

“…The subsequent <em>D</em> meson decays to the <em>K</em>_S⁰π⁺π⁻ and <em>K</em>_S⁰<em>K</em>⁺<em>K</em>⁻ final states are studied using a binned Dalitz plot analysis. The <em>D</em> strong-phase variation over the Dalitz plot is taken from measurements performed at the CLEO-c experiment, making the analysis independent of a model to describe the <em>D</em> decay amplitude. …”

An analysis of heavy silicone oil treatment for inferior proliferative vitreoretinopathy by Hammer, M, Ie, A, Eibenberger, K, Auffarth, GU, Xue, K

“…Results: Fill-induced pressure spikes (&gt; 30 mmHg) within 14 days post-surgery were common after Densiron tamponade, especially in patients previously on glaucoma drops. …”

Development and validation of multiplex real-time PCR for simultaneous detection of six bacterial pathogens causing lower respiratory tract infections and antimicrobial resistance... by Dung, TTN, Phat, VV, Vinh, C, Lan, NPH, Phuong, NLN, Ngan, LTQ, Thwaites, G, Thwaites, L, Rabaa, M, Nguyen, ATK, Duy, PT

“…The reproducibility, linearity, limit of detection (LOD) of real-time PCR assays for pathogen detection were evaluated using DNA control mixes and spiked tracheal aspirate. The performance of RT-PCR assays was subsequently compared with the gold standard, conventional culture on 50 tracheal aspirate and sputum specimens of ICU patients.…”

Homogenisation and approximation of solutions to multiscale problem by Khoo, Freddy Hong Shan

Open-RadVLAD: fast and robust radar place recognition by Gadd, M, Newman, P

“…As the original radar signal is in the form of received power in discretised range bins, we also show experimentally that taking a radial Fourier Transform in this way and matching based on spatial frequencies present in the power signal leads to better performance – leading to a 7% to 8% improvement in localisation success (Section IV and Table II). …”

Partial grounding, identity, and nothing-over-and-aboveness by Werner, Jonas

“…It will turn out that the related question whether partial grounding and nothing-over-and-aboveness yield full grounding pertains to considerations concerning how finely factual content is individuated. The relationship between non-augmented partial grounding and nothing-over-and-aboveness crucially depends on whether one works with a representational or a worldly notion of grounding and how coarsely grained one takes worldly grounds to be.…”
