Heritagised spaces of Singapore: memories grounded in playgrounds by Kam, Olivia Jie Qi

“…This space is closely attached to state-building narratives, where the development of a national identity was especially crucial to maintain the state’s hegemony. Such is the case when it comes to mosaic playgrounds that are structured to symbolise and reflect Singapore’s culture and history; to embody the Singaporean identity. …”

Pruning in face forgery detection by Lam, Zhi Fah

“…To combat this increasingly relevant issue, multiple state-of-the-art Face Forgery detection algorithms have been developed, and many have achieved impressive results when put to the test. However, these algorithms often utilise deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and the high complexity and computational resources required makes it difficult for one to implement them in a production environment. …”

Toxicity prediction via algebraic graph-assisted bidirectional transformers by Ooi, Yen Sun

“…However, toxicity is a major concern that can hinder the development process of drugs, especially when it is harmful to human bodies. In this paper, we present Algebraic Graph-assisted Bidirectional Transformers (AGBT), a novel approach to improve drug lead optimization by enhancing toxicity predictions and identifying its adverse effects on humans. …”

Strange mythologies: cultural and linguistic opacity in Argonauts of the Western Pacific by Scott, Bede

“…As I argue, however, this totalizing impulse is frustrated on more than one occasion in Argonauts, when Malinowski encounters various “opacities” that cannot be so easily assimilated into ethnographic discourse, thus revealing the limits of the very omniscience that he claims to be pursuing.…”
