Tan, C. (author), Wang, S. (author), Yang, Huiru (author), Huang, Qianming (author), Li, Shizhen (author), Liu, X. (author), Ye, H. (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author)Short-wave ultraviolet (also called UVC) irradiation is a well-adopted method of viral inactivation due to its ability to damage genetic material. A fundamental problem with the UVC inactivation method is that its mechanism of action on viruses is still unknown at the molecular level. To address this problem, herein we investigate the...journal article 2023

Lou, Yang (author), Song, Q. (author), Xu, Qian (author), Tan, Rui (author), Wang, J. (author)Multi-modal fusion has shown initial promising results for object detection of autonomous driving perception. However, many existing fusion schemes do not consider the quality of each fusion input and may suffer from adverse conditions on one or more sensors. While predictive uncertainty has been applied to characterize single-modal object...conference paper 2023

Xu, H. (author), Tan, Jinkai (author), Li, Chunlan (author), Niu, Yiying (author), Wang, Jun (author)As global warming continues to intensify, the relationship between diurnal temperature range (DTR) and vegetation productivity continues to change over time. However, the impact of DTR changes on vegetation activities remains uncertain. Thus, further study about how DTR changes affect the physiological activities of plants is also urgently...journal article 2023

(author), Liu, Qing (author), Wang, Jun (author)Extreme surges and rainfall represent major driving factors for compound flooding in estuary regions along the Chinese coast. The combined effect of extreme surges and rainfall (that is, compound floods) might lead to greater impacts than if the drivers occurred in isolation. Hence, understanding the frequency and severity of compound...journal article 2023

Tan, J. (author)Ocean wave energy has a huge potential to make a contribution to global energy transition. However, the high Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) is currently a big hurdle to the development of wave energy converters (WECs). This thesis is motivated to improve the techno-economic competitiveness of WECs. It focuses on the effects of systematic sizing...doctoral thesis 2022

Tan, Yicong (author)Literature on medical imaging segmentation claims that self-attention-based Transformer blocks perform better than convolution in UNet-based architectures. This recently touted success of Transformers warrants an investigation into which of its components contribute to its performance. Moreover, previous work has a limitation of analysis only at...master thesis 2022

Tan, Chia Wu (author)In recent years, there has been an emergence of the concept of “circular economy (CE)”, which promises to close the loop in terms of resource extraction consumption in the prevailing economic paradigm. This promises environmental and socioeconomic benefits, but the risk exists where the benefits of the circular transition might be unevenly...master thesis 2022

Tan, Xin (author)Many functional imaging modalities such as EEG, fMRI, and fUS were developed, and have the potential to achieve the brain-computer interface. In addition to those conventional functional imaging modalities which measure the electrical signal or neurovascular coupling induced by brain activity, Patz et al. found evidence for the existence of a...master thesis 2022

Tan, Tessa (author)Collective behaviour can be seen everywhere. It is the phenomenon where many individuals form a group together and act as a whole. These groups are mesmerising to watch, but we can also learn from them. The way these groups behave depend on how the individuals react to their local surroundings. Obtaining knowledge about this concept brings...master thesis 2022
