Exploring The Dynamics Of Scientific Research, Shilpa Lakhanpal
Dissertations
Scientific research papers present the research endeavors of numerous scientists around the world, and are documented across multitudes of technical conference proceedings, and other such publications. Given the plethora of such research data, if we could automate the extraction of key interesting areas of research, and provide access to this new information, it would make literature searches incredibly easier for researchers. This in turn could be very useful for them in furthering their research agenda. With this goal in mind, we have endeavored to provide such solutions through our research. Specifically, the focus of our research is to design, analyze …

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs), or third-generation neural networks, are networks of computation units, called neurons, in which each neuron with internal analogue dynamics receives as input and produces as output spiking, that is, binary sparse, signals. In contrast, second-generation neural networks, termed as Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), rely on simple static non-linear neurons that are known to be energy-intensive, hindering their implementations on energy-limited processors such as mobile devices. The sparse event-based characteristics of SNNs for information transmission and encoding have made them more feasible for highly energy-efficient neuromorphic computing architectures. The most existing training algorithms for SNNs are based …
Hierarchical Cluster Analysis: A New Type Of Ranking Criteria Based On Arwu Ranking Data, Zhengshuo Li
Hierarchical Cluster Analysis: A New Type Of Ranking Criteria Based On Arwu Ranking Data, Zhengshuo Li
Dissertations
The advent of big data leads to many applications of Machine Learning techniques. University rankings is one of the applicable domains, which is currently playing a crucial role in the assessment of the universities' performance. Currently, the rankings are usually carried out by some authoritative ranking institutions by means of weighting techniques and the results are conveyed in numerical rankings. Three of the most famous university ranking institutions have been introduced from a technical perspective. However, these institutions have been proven to be subjective in relation to their data selection and weighting method.
