Zhang, R. (author), Chen, Y. (author), Lei, Jiaxin (author), Zhou, Xin (author), Yao, P. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author)Mangroves can function as a ‘bio-shield’ to protect coastal communities from harsh environments because of their strong ability to attenuate wave energy. However, as mangroves are usually oversimplified as rigid cylinders in antecedent studies, the effects of complex mangrove morphology on wave attenuation have not been well researched....journal article 2023

Fu, Sheng (author), Chen, P. (author), Ye, Zhisheng (author)The multicategory support vector machine (MSVM) has been widely used for multicategory classification. Despite its widespread popularity, regular MSVM cannot provide direct probabilistic results and suffers from excessive computational cost, as it is formulated on the hinge loss function and it solves a sum-to-zero constrained quadratic...journal article 2023
