Secondo : a platform for moving objects database research by Tan, Andrew Wee Teck

“…The objective of this project is to investigate how SECONDO can be used to develop application relevant to the local context. For example, a single value of moving point (mpoint for short) data type could represent a complete trip of a passenger on board an MRT or a LRT train which possibly has several changes of course along the path. …”

Exploring the (im)possibilities of multicultural solidarity in Singapore by Koh, Seth Xi Liang

“…As sociologist Chua Beng Huat observes, these relations are “underwritten by a single injunction, the logic of harmony”, and it is this imperative that leads the state to discipline its population (Chua, “Multiculturalism in Singapore” 74). …”

2D + 3D approach in face verification algorithm by Hendinata, Joshua

“…Typical face recognition system usually use only 2D face image captured from a single camera. This method is preferred compared to 3D face recognition which, although offers a generally higher accuracy rate, was expensive due to the use a high-end range camera or laser scanner for its acquisition process. …”

Robotic manipulation of microscopic objects using multiple laser-driven fingertips by Quang, Minh Ta

“…In the research, multiple optically trapped micro-beads are first utilized as the laser-driven fingertips, and several control techniques will then be explored to achieve various manipulation tasks, which are beyond the capability of manipulation using single optical trapping. The interactions between the manipulators and biological cells or microscopic objects will be analyzed to gain insight into the dynamic manipulation. …”

Efficient cyclic routing of unmanned aerial vehicles by Ong, Chao Jian

“…Coupled with the time constraint for travelling between these checkpoints, the problem then arises on how best to construct a cyclic route that can satisfy all constraints perpetually with a single UAV. While this problem has been discussed about by some papers, which includes a final year report – by Lim Cheng Siang in 2017 – experimenting with an actual solution, none has been about attempting to design an efficient cyclic route. …”
