A mathematical model of microbial folate biosynthesis and utilisation: implications for antifolate development (2016)
Journal Article

The metabolic biochemistry of folate biosynthesis and utilisation has evolved into a complex network of reactions. Although this complexity represents challenges to the field of folate research it has also provided a renewed source for antimetabolite...

A deterministic oscillatory model of microtubule growth and shrinkage for differential actions of short chain fatty acids (2016)
Journal Article

Short chain fatty acids (SCFA), principally acetate, propionate, butyrate and valerate, are produced in pharmacologically relevant concentrations by the gut microbiome. Investigations indicate that they exert beneficial effects on colon epithelia. Th...

Modeling spatial layout for scene image understanding via a novel multiscale sum-product network (2016)
Journal Article
Yuan, Z., Wang, H., Wang, L., Lu, T., Palaiahnakote, S., & Lim Tan, C. (2016). Modeling spatial layout for scene image understanding via a novel multiscale sum-product network. Expert systems with applications, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.eswa.2016.07.015

Semantic image segmentation is challenging due to the large intra-class variations and the complex spatial layouts inside natural scenes. This paper investigates this problem by designing a new deep architecture, called multiscale sum-product network...

Performance comparison between KNN and NSGA-II algorithms as calibration approaches for building simulation models (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In this paper, a study of calibration methods for a thermal performance model of a building is presented. Two calibration approaches are evaluated and compared in terms of accuracy and computation speed. These approaches are the 𝑘 Nearest Neighbour (...

Male red throat coloration, pelvic spine coloration, and courtship behaviours in threespine stickleback (2016)
Journal Article
Wright, D. S., Yong, L., Pierotti, M. E., & McKinnon, J. S. (2016). Male red throat coloration, pelvic spine coloration, and courtship behaviours in threespine stickleback. Evolutionary Ecology Research, 17, 407–418

Background: In addition to exhibiting red nuptial throat coloration, male threespine sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) often possess red coloration on their pelvic spines. Although
variation in throat colour has been shown to be associated with... Read More about Male red throat coloration, pelvic spine coloration, and courtship behaviours in threespine stickleback.

Additive Manufacturing of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles: Current Status, Recent Advances, and Future Perspectives (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Over the past two decades, we have witnessed increased interest in rapidly growing unmanned aerial vehicles technologies triggered by numerous commercial applications. However, production cost is still a challenge due to the complexity of the manufac...

Mineral and biological contamination of soil and Capsicum annuum irrigated with recycled domestic wastewater (2016)
Journal Article

Due to water scarcity in many arid countries, there is considerable interest in recycling wastewaterstreams such as treated urban wastewater for irrigation in the agricultural sector. The aim of this study isto assess the contamination of soil and Ca... Read More about Mineral and biological contamination of soil and Capsicum annuum irrigated with recycled domestic wastewater.

Experimental assessment of recycled diesel spill-contaminated domestic wastewater treated by reed beds for irrigation of sweet peppers (2016)
Journal Article

The aim of this experimental study is to assess if urban wastewater treated by ten different greenhouse-based sustainable wetland systems can be recycled to irrigate Capsicum annuum L. (Sweet Pepper; California Wonder) commercially grown either in co...
