Chen, H. (author), Tan, E.B.K. (author), Lee, Y. (author), Praharaj, S. (author), Specht, M.M. (author), Zhao, G. (author)Using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning technologies to automatically mine latent patterns from educational data holds great potential to inform teaching and learning practices. However, the current AI technology mostly works as "black box"-only the inputs and the corresponding outputs are available, which largely impedes...conference paper 2020

Daily news broadcasts contain multiple news items that consist of many video shots and searching for relevant footage is a labor intensive task. Without the need for annotated video shots, our system extracts semantics from footage and automatically matches...conference paper 2019

(author)Learning from demonstration (LfD) is useful in settings where hand-coding behaviour or a reward function is impractical. It has succeeded in a wide range of problems but typically relies on manually generated demonstrations or specially deployed sensors and has not generally been able to leverage the copious demonstrations available in the...conference paper 2019

Chen, B. (author), Sun, Yubo (author), Jacquemin, Loic (author), Zhang, Shizhe (author), Blom, Kees (author), Lukovic, M. (author), Ye, G. (author)At present, most municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash, as being disposed of as waste, is directly landfilled, raising concern about the environmental issue and potential loss of resources. Given that the natural raw materials used for cement production are being depleted, the recycling of MSWI bottom ash for the application as...conference paper 2019

Yan, Y. (author), Vreeburg, Wouter (author), Chen, Guangming (author), Schott, D.L. (author)Using bionic surface on the material equipment interface of bulk handling equipment is a promising solution for wear reduction. A bionic surface is a flat surface outfitted with a pattern of convexes that disrupt the natural sliding flow of bulk material. Previous numerical work has shown a significant reduction of wear of bionic surfaces...conference paper 2019

Chen, Y. (author), Yalçinkaya, Ç. (author), Copuroglu, Oguzhan (author), Schlangen, E. (author)Recently, our group attempted to develop the ternary blended (Portland cement, calcined clay and limestone) cementitious material for 3D concrete printing (3DCP). Due to the elimination of formwork during the layer-by-layer casting process, the printed material should have favorable elastic properties and green strength at the fresh state.

Chen, Cong (author), Batselier, K. (author), Ko, Ching Yun (author), Wong, Ngai (author)A restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM) learns a probability distribution over its input samples and has numerous uses like dimensionality reduction, classification and generative modeling. Conventional RBMs accept vectorized data that dismiss potentially important structural information in the original tensor (multi-way) input. Matrix-variate...conference paper 2019

Chen, Cong (author), Batselier, K. (author), Ko, Ching Yun (author), Wong, Ngai (author)There has been growing interest in extending traditional vector-based machine learning techniques to their tensor forms. Support tensor machine (STM) and support Tucker machine (STuM) are two typical tensor generalization of the conventional support vector machine (SVM). However, the expressive power of STM is restrictive due to its rank-one...conference paper 2019

Proof load testing is one of the method to test the capacity of bridges by applying loads on the existing concrete bridges with small spans. Because of the fact that neither the actual traffic load nor the...conference paper 2019

(author), Cappietti, Lorenzo (author)Overtopping bore impact forces on a dike mounted vertical wall were measured in similar large-scale (Froude length scale factor 1-to-4.3) and small-scale (Froude length scale factor 1-to-25) models. The differences due to scale effects were studied, by comparing the up-scaled force measurements from both models in prototype. It was noted that if...conference paper 2019

Chen, J. (author), Weihs, Daphne (author), Vermolen, F.J. (author)During metastasis of cancer, cell migration plays a crucial role, which is normally accompanied by morphological evolution. To simulate cell deformation, we develop a phenomenological, computational model involving deformation of a cell as well as its nucleus. The migration of a single cell is orchestrated by a generic signal (e.g. a chemokine...conference paper 2018
