NIR “matchbox size” spectrometer can quantify and detect malaria infection in Plasmodium falciparum infected red blood cells by Adegoke, John A., Kochan, Kamila, Heraud, Philip, Wood, Bayden R.

“…New point-of-care diagnostic approaches for malaria that are highly sensitive, portable and affordable are urgently needed to meet the World Health Organization’s objective of reducing malaria cases and related life losses by at least 90% globally on or before 2030.1 In this study, an ultra-cheap matchbox size near-infrared (NIR) spectrophotometer was used for the first time to detect and quantify malaria infection in vitro from isolated dried red blood cells using a fingerpick volume (15 μl) of blood, down to 0.0001% parasitemia.…”

Ambiguity in absurdity : Gogol's the nose and the overcoat. by Yixin, Huang.

“…Best known for his novel Dead Souls, Gogol is deemed as a better writer than Pushkin by Nabokov: “The prose of Pushkin is three-dimensional; that of Gogol is four-dimensional, at least.” (Nabokov 145). In 1835, Gogol published a collection of short stories reflecting the life of St. …”

The new electricity market of Singapore : competitiveness and market power by Chng, Clarence Kai Hui, Ng, Yvonne Yalin, Ng, Yun Fang

“…The elasticity of demand is derived through two-stage least squares regression. While results show that the elasticity of demand have decreased since 2004, this is rationalised with vesting contracts in the NEMS and the inflexible nature of contestable consumers’ energy demand.…”

Data fusion and missing data estimation in road networks by Foo, Her Yiow

“…We developed a model for recovering of low resolution traffic data with the availability of higher resolution data in real-time, drivers can plan their journeys high low uncertainty. Partial least square regression method is used in estimating large scale urban traffic with fusion of traffic speed, flow and/or speed band as inputs. …”

Writers' libraries and vestigial notes as cultural heritage: minding the gaps in the material record by Van Hulle, D

“…In English literature, keeping one's manuscripts is a relatively recent phenomenon, compared to for instance the Italian tradition, which has holograph sources that go back at least to the fourteenth century. Using examples mainly from Samuel Beckett and James Joyce, this chapter will zoom in on writers' libraries and reading notes to trace creativity in literature. …”

Reconstruction from smaller cards by Groenland, C, Johnston, T, Scott, A, Tan, J

“…In 1957, Kelly showed that every tree with $n\ge3$ vertices can be reconstructed from its $(n-1)$-deck, and Giles strengthened this in 1976, proving that trees on at least 6 vertices can be reconstructed from their $(n-2)$-decks. …”

Single axis geometry by fitting conics by Jiang, G, Tsui, H-T, Quan, L, Zisserman, A

“…It is then shown that the geometry of single axis motion can be recovered given at least two such conics. In the case of two conics the reconstruction may have a two fold ambiguity, but this ambiguity is removed if three conics are used.…”
