Experimental study of steel beam-column joints with novel slot-bolted connections under a central-column-removal scenario by Ma, You-Xin, Chen, Shuang, Tan, Kang Hai

“…Moreover, the ductility supply of connections with and without the slotted holes was evaluated and compared through the acceptable criteria specified in the design guide for progressive collapse. The comparison showed that the adoption of novel slotted holes could dramatically enhance the plastic rotation capacity for both FP and TSWA connections.…”

Deep learning for unmanned aerial vehicle re-identification by Wang, Zekai

“…To solve these problems, this dissertation employs three baselines from FastReID to conduct experiments in two scenarios: UAV-based person ReID and vehicle ReID. After comparison, the Stronger Baseline (SBS) model with ResNeSt as backbone network and Instance and Batch Normalization (IBN) performed best for UAV-based person and vehicle ReID, which reduced processing time and computing costs. …”
