Fuzzy Neural Logic Network And Its Learning Algorithms, Fiona Fui-Hoon Nah, Nah Fiona
Fuzzy Neural Logic Network And Its Learning Algorithms, Fiona Fui-Hoon Nah, Nah Fiona
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
The paper introduces the basic features of fuzzy neural logic network. Each fuzzy neural logic network model is trained from a set of knowledge in the form of examples using one of the three learning algorithms introduced. These three learning algorithms are the delta rule controlled learning algorithm and two mathematical construction algorithms, namely, the local learning method and the global learning method. Once the fuzzy neural logic network model is constructed, it is ready to accept any unknown input from the user. With a low percentage of mismatched features, output solution can be obtained.
Exclusive And Inclusive Semileptonic Decays Of B Mesons To D Mesons, R. Fulton, M. Thulasidas
Exclusive And Inclusive Semileptonic Decays Of B Mesons To D Mesons, R. Fulton, M. Thulasidas
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We report new measurements of the branching fractions B ( B − → D 0 l − ¯ ν ) , B ( ¯ B 0 → D + l − ¯ ν ) , and B ( B − → D * 0 l − ¯ ν ) . Combining these results with our previous measurement of B ( ¯ B 0 → D * + l − ¯ ν ) , we find that the ratio of semileptonic widths for final states with a vector meson and pseudoscalar meson is ( 2.6 + 1.1 + 1.0 − 0.6 …
The Hong Kong Jury: A Microcosm Of Society?, Peter Duff, Mark Findlay, Carla Howarth
The Hong Kong Jury: A Microcosm Of Society?, Peter Duff, Mark Findlay, Carla Howarth
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
The claim that the jury is a randomly chosen and representative sample of community is an important part of the ideology which currently underpins the institution. Supporters of the jury argue that both its impartiality and its independence from the State are bolstered by the fact that it represents a randomly selected cross-section of the populace. In most common law jurisdictions where the jury operates, various steps have been taken over recent years in order preserve and strengthen the perception of the jury as a "microcosm of democratic society". For example, in England the property qualification for jurors was removed …

Recently, the use of bridges/gateways to interconnect physically distant local area networks (LANs) has become increasingly popular. There are various ways of connecting these bridges/gateways. ISDN is one of them and an attractive one. In this paper we discuss our work in the gateway design for interconnecting LANs via ISDN.
Geography And Religion: Trends And Prospects, Lily Kong
Geography And Religion: Trends And Prospects, Lily Kong
Research Collection School of Social Sciences
That geography and religion can and do meet to form a valuable focus of inquiry has not always been immediately apparent. While the study of religions has engaged the attention of a large and ever-widening circle of scholars, research has tended to proceed under the varied rubrics of sociology, anthropology, philosophy, history, and certainly, theology. Classics that have had significant impact on the development of 'religious thought' have emerged from the pens of scholars professing several diverse disciplines. For instance, Weber (1904-1905), Durkheim (1976), Otto (1950), and Eliade (1959) represent but a sample of the multifarious writings that have shaped …
How To Arrive At Computer Integrated Manufacturing: A 3-Year Survey, Arnoud De Meyer
How To Arrive At Computer Integrated Manufacturing: A 3-Year Survey, Arnoud De Meyer
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
The large majority of modern production companies have at their disposal a multitude of computer systems. The immediate challenge for these companies consists of integrating these computer systems and databases. How will one arrive at this integration? On the basis of a questionnaire administered in 1985, 1986 and 1987 among a group of large European manufacturers, one comes to the conclusion that this integration is one of the immediate priorities for this group of companies. They do not intend to implement turnkey systems. but instead will integrate the different databases and computer systems gradually. One can see emerging islands of …
Lasting Improvements In Manufacturing Performance: In Search Of A New Theory, Kasra Ferdows, Arnoud De Meyer
Lasting Improvements In Manufacturing Performance: In Search Of A New Theory, Kasra Ferdows, Arnoud De Meyer
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
Is there a way to avoid trading off one capability for another in manufacturing? The prevailing wisdom says no. But some manufacturers seem to have been able to defy that: compared to their competitors, they have better quality, are more dependable, respond faster to changing market conditions, and in spite of all that, achieve lower costs. How can this be explained? Our aim here is to provide an explanation. We contend that the nature of the trade-offs among manufacturing capabilities is more complex than has been assumed. Depending on the approach taken for developing each capability, the nature of the …

Taxonomic Mental Models In Competitor Definition, Joseph F. Porac, Howard Thomas
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
In this article, a cognitive approach to the problem of competitor definition is outlined, which begins with a discussion of the information-processing demands implied by current models of competitive strategy. How decision makers simplify the competitive environment by using a mental model of competitive groups is then discussed. Finally, the implications of a cognitive approach for the classifying organizations and organizational adaptation are commented on.

Determination Of Adopter Categories By Using Innovation Diffusion Models, Vijay Mahajan, Eitan Muller, Rajendra Kumar Srivastava
Determination Of Adopter Categories By Using Innovation Diffusion Models, Vijay Mahajan, Eitan Muller, Rajendra Kumar Srivastava
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
Using the analytical logic underlying the classical adopter categorization approach proposed by Rogers, the authors suggest that adopter categories for a product innovation can also be developed by using their well-established diffusion models such as the Bass model. With data on 11 consumer durable products, they compare adopter categories generated by the classical approach and the Bass diffusion model, respectively. An application examining the diffusion of personal computers is documented to illustrate the usefulness of the adopter categorization based on the Bass diffusion model in studying differences among adopter categories.

A Commentary On Professor Fisher’S Thesis: Ideology, Religion, Private Property And The Supreme Court 1987-88, Howard Hunter
A Commentary On Professor Fisher’S Thesis: Ideology, Religion, Private Property And The Supreme Court 1987-88, Howard Hunter
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
The most important lessons to be learned from Professor Fisher's paper are that the ideologies central to American law have roots in religious thought and that the influence of ideologies can be found throughout American law, perhaps most especially in judicial decisions. To these lessons we can add a third: the ideologies embodied in judicial decisions concerning private property in the period from the American Revolution to the Civil War are still with us. Three recent decisions of the United States Supreme Court' illustrate the continuing importance of the constitutional and ideological protection of private property, while offering an interesting …

Parallel Imports And The Intellectual Property Rights In Singapore, Sze Shun, George Wei
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
Parallel imports is a term used to describe a situation where articles made and sold in one country (the country of manufacture), are imported into another country (the country of importation), without the consent of the owner or licensee of the intellectual property rights in the country of importation. … The issue which has arisen concerns the extent to which intellectual property rights in the country of importation can be used to seal off the domestic market and repel such imports. …
Jurisprudential Oaks From Mythical Acorns: The Hart‐Dworkin Debate Revisited, Andrew B.L. Phang
Jurisprudential Oaks From Mythical Acorns: The Hart‐Dworkin Debate Revisited, Andrew B.L. Phang
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
This article attempts to demonstrate, via the famous Hart-Dworkin debate on the nature and functions of judicial discretion, that substantial jurisprudential disputes as well as theories can, and do, arise from misconceived critiques, whether intended or otherwise. It also seeks to show that, whilst Dworkin's initial critique of Hart was misconceived, his theory of adjudication that arose as a result of responses to his initial views is a positive contribution to learning, although I argue that Dworkin's views are not, in the final analysis, sufficiently persuasive to constitute a radical departure from Hart's own views.
Whither Economic Duress? Reflections On Two Recent Cases, Andrew B.L. Phang
Whither Economic Duress? Reflections On Two Recent Cases, Andrew B.L. Phang
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
From its rather tentative and extremely recent beginnings, I the law relating to economic duress has developed at a relatively rapid pace during the last decade or so. We have had a series of decisions from various courts and jurisdictions* which, collectively at least, affirm the existence of the doctrine in English law. The pronouncements at the highest levels, however, have not purported to be definitive, and, as we shall see, have certainly not aided in a clarification and systematization of the doctrine of economic duress. The two recent decisions, which are the subject of the present comment, have merely …

Reception Of English Law In Singapore: Problems And Proposed Solutions, Andrew B.L. Phang
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
The problems pertaining to the reception of English law in Singapore are both numerous and complex. The academic literature generated in the local sphere alone is relatively large. It must, however, be conceded that, from apractical point of view, there has been very little interest or at least discussion. One cannot, of course, be sure about this observation, save for the very strong indication that takes the form of the overwhelming lack of litigation in the area, thus rendering it merely (so it appears) an academic monopoly. It should, however, be pointed out that this rather phlegmatic approach in practice …
Trellis-Coded Multidimensional Phase Modulation, S. S. Pietrobon, Robert H. Deng
Trellis-Coded Multidimensional Phase Modulation, S. S. Pietrobon, Robert H. Deng
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
A 2L-dimensional multiple phase-shift keyed (L×MPSK) signal set is obtained by forming the Cartesian product of L two-dimensional MPSK signal sets. A systematic approach to partitioning L×MPSK signal sets that is based on block coding is used. An encoder system approach is developed. It incorporates the design of a differential precoder, a systematic convolutional encoder, and a signal set mapper. Trellis-coded L×4PSK, L×8PSK, and L×16PSK modulation schemes are found for 1⩽L⩽4 and a variety of code rates and decoder complexities, many of which are fully transparent to discrete phase rotations of the signal set. The new codes achieve asymptotic coding …

Exclusive And Inclusive Decays Of B Mesons Into Ds Mesons, D. Bortoletto, Manoj Thulasidas
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We have studied the production of Ds mesons in the decays of B mesons at the Υ(4S) resonance. We report on the first observation of exclusive B-meson decays B->Ds−D*+, B→Ds−D+, and B→Ds−D0. We also present a new measurement of the branching ratio and the momentum spectrum for the inclusive decay B→DsX.

We show that a certain class of progressive tax structure induces an optimal dividend policy which is autogressive in nature. The theoritical model is consistent with empirically observed dividend policies.
Icac And The Community, Mark Findlay
Icac And The Community, Mark Findlay
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
Recently the language of 'community' has been widely used in the official discourse of criminal justice administration in Australia, in an obvious effort to legitimate new developments away from more traditional crime control. Commentators are now asking, why all this 'community speak' about policing, mediation, and corrections? As regards the 'community' perspective of anti-corruption initiatives, it is an attempt to transfer to the new institutions and processes some of the more positive implications which are assumed to flow from community allegiance.
Welfare Implications Of Hdb Policy On The Public Housing Price Gradient, Sock Yong Phang
Welfare Implications Of Hdb Policy On The Public Housing Price Gradient, Sock Yong Phang
Research Collection School Of Economics
In Singapore, extensive government intervention in the housing market has resulted in much deviation from assumptions made in the simple neoclassical urban models. The monocentric model of urban structure is extended to incorporate a subsidized public housing market in which the government-determined price gradient is flatter than the private housing price gradients. The propositionthat the utility of public housing households varies inversely with residential location distance from the CBD is empirically tested by estimating net returns to public housing using resale market data. It was found that net returns decreased with distance from the CBD.
High Rate Concatenated Coding Systems Using Multidimensional Bandwidth Efficient Inner Codes, Robert H. Deng, Daniel J. Jr. Costello
High Rate Concatenated Coding Systems Using Multidimensional Bandwidth Efficient Inner Codes, Robert H. Deng, Daniel J. Jr. Costello
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
A concatenated coding system using two-dimensional trellis-coded MPSK inner codes and Reed-Solomon outer codes for application in high-speed satellite communication systems was proposed previously by the authors (ibid., vol.37, no.5, p.420-7, May 1989). The authors extend their results to systems using symbol-oriented, multidimensional, trellis-coded MPSK inner codes. The concatenated coding systems are divided into two classes according to their achievable effective information rates. The first class uses multidimensional trellis-coded 8-PSK inner codes and achieves effective information rates around 1 b/dimension (spectral efficiency 2 b/s/Hz). The second class employs multidimensional trellis-coded 16-PSK inner codes and provides effective information rates around 1.5 …

Show Trials In China: The Aftermath Of Tiananmen Square, Mark Findlay
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
After the military massacre in Tiananmen Square on 4 June it came as no surprise that the nominated 'rioters and counter revolutionaries' would soon be paraded before the courts. Even in the People's Republic of China, where a formal criminal court structure is a comparatively recent addition to the social control framework, the trial process is being employed as an immediate state response to community disjuncture and political challenge.
Exception Clauses And Negligence-The Influence Of Contract On Bailment And Tort, Andrew B.L. Phang
Exception Clauses And Negligence-The Influence Of Contract On Bailment And Tort, Andrew B.L. Phang
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
Judgments at first instance have rarely been the subject of comment.' The recent decision of Steyn J in Singer Co (UK) Ltd v Tees and Hartlepool Port Authority,2 however, merits consideration for at least three reasons. First, it focuses upon important issues in the law of bailment, at least one of which has hitherto only been considered at first instance in any event. Secondly, the decision provokes thought on the much broader issue of the effect of exception clauses upon the general duty of care in tort, in particular whether the reasoning in the bailment context could be extended and …
