Reading and ideology: the case of the free public libraries movement by Spowage, K, Toth, HG

“…This article examines social debates on mass reading in Britain, linking them to the free public libraries movement of the mid-19th century. It argues that free public libraries were defended on the grounds of a piecemeal, eclectic, but nonetheless identifiable vernacular theory of ideology that emerged over the course of a century. …”

Stabilization of waste soils using novel binders by Tan, Adrian Yong Jian

“…Currently, the soft clay is mainly used as the fill material for land reclamation, a low value-added application, after improving its engineering properties through physical or chemical treatment. …”

Information structure of subordinate clauses in Miriwoong by Sim, Michelle Jia En

“…This project hence deviates from a structural perspective, analysing subordinate clauses through information structure, using Lambrecht’s (1994) framework. To fill the gap in Miriwoong literature, this paper covers additional ground, such as structure in simple and paratactic clauses, and other features hypothesised as relevant to focus structure in subordinate clauses. …”

Local climate action from the middle-out: the social potential of craft guilds to facilitate low-carbon installations in Germany by Wehden, S, Janda, KB, Jansen, J, Creutzig, F

“…However, research on effective governance arrangements targeting this ‘installation bottleneck’ is limited. To fill this gap, we adopt a Middle-Out Perspective (MOP) and use rich qualitative data including in-depth interviews to study the role of craft guilds within Germany's low-carbon transition, particularly in rooftop photovoltaic and heat pump installation. …”

NTU VIRAL: a visual-inertial-ranging-lidar dataset, from an aerial vehicle viewpoint by Nguyen, Thien-Minh, Yuan, Shenghai, Cao, Muqing, Lyu, Yang, Nguyen, Thien Hoang, Xie, Lihua

“…However, for research on autonomous aerial systems, there appears to be a relative lack of public datasets on par with those used for autonomous driving and ground robots. Thus, to fill in this gap, we conduct a data collection exercise on an aerial platform equipped with an extensive and unique set of sensors: two 3D lidars, two hardware-synchronized global-shutter cameras, multiple Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs), and especially, multiple Ultra-wideband (UWB) ranging units. …”

'(Un)richtige Aufnahme': Renaissance sculpture and the visual historiography of art history by Johnson, GA

“…The result is that art history has been, almost since its inception as an academic discipline in the mid-nineteenth century, a ‘history of that which can be photographed’, as André Malraux famously stated – albeit a ‘history’ that has also always simultaneously contested its reliance on photography.4…”

Understanding Indexing Efficiency for Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search in High-dimensional Vector Databases by Qin, Yuting

“…This thesis aims to establish this connection to fill the gap. The key challenge in quantifying the heuristics is the complex tradeoff between the search accuracy and search speed, which makes it almost impossible to establish an analytical model. …”

Land reclamation - from conventional vertical drain methods to a combined vacuum preloading and electro-osmosis with horizontal drainage enhanced geotextile sheets by Wong, Lung Anthony

“…The major challenges include the extra time required for consolidating the clay slurry and the formation of a working platform for construction, which are not necessary if sandy fill material is adopted. Consolidation analysis of drained reclamation work is a key aspect in assessing the performance of the ground improvement work conducted. …”
