Smart augmentation learning an optimal data augmentation strategy
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2017-04-24)A recurring problem faced when training neural networks is that there is typically not enough data to maximize the generalization capability of deep neural networks. There are many techniques to address this, including ... -
Smart biomaterials for cell sheet engineering
(2016-03-23)The aim of this instigation was to develop thermoresponsive polymer films for cell culture use. Conventional cell detachment methods involve the use of proteolytic enzymes, such as trypsin, or mechanical scrapping. These ... -
Smart cameras: 2D affine models for determining subject facial expressions
(IEEE, 2010-07-15)In this paper we consider how next generation of smart cameras will move beyond face detection and tracking to develop more useful analysis tools for determining the expressions and emotions of the subjects in images. An ... -
Smart cities – enabling services and applications

Smart City as a Service (SCaaS): A future roadmap for e-government smart city cloud computing initiatives
(ACM, 2014-11-08)The concept of a smart city has been identified as not only representing a crucible for technological innovation, a medium for realising global integration but also as an exemplar response for addressing current and impending ... -
SMART MOVE - a smartphone-based intervention to promote physical activity in primary care: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
(BioMed Central, 2013-05-29)Background: Sedentary lifestyles are now becoming a major concern for governments of developed and developing countries with physical inactivity related to increased all-cause mortality, lower quality of life, and increased ... -

Smartphone apps for improving medication adherence in hypertension: patients’ perspectives
(Dove Medical Press, 2018-05-14)Purpose Digital interventions, such as smartphone applications (apps), are becoming an increasingly common way to support medication adherence and self-management in chronic conditions. It is important to investigate how ... -
Smartphones, biometrics, and a brave new world
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016-09-09)In this article, we take a somewhat contrarian viewpoint - that biometrics may, in fact, offer solutions to many of today's cyber-security problems that appear with increasing frequency in prime-time news. This outcome ... -
SME collaboration: Trick or Treat?
(2008)Collaboration is a major new source of competitive advantage and an essential regional, and indeed, global management requirement. The collaboration process will ultimately be successful if there is an existence of appropriate ... -
Smg1 haploinsufficiency predisposes to tumor formation and inflammation
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012-12-31)SMG1 is a member of the phosphoinositide kinase-like kinase family of proteins that includes ATM, ATR, and DNA-PK, proteins with known roles in DNA damage and cellular stress responses. SMG1 has a well-characterized role ... -
Smifish and fish-quant – a flexible single rna detection approach with super-resolution capability
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2016-09-05)Single molecule FISH (smFISH) allows studying transcription and RNA localization by imaging individual mRNAs in single cells. We present smiFISH (single molecule inexpensive FISH), an easy to use and flexible RNA visualization ... -
Smoking and crohn's disease: active modification of an independent risk factor (education alone is not enough)
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2013-09-01) -
Smyth surfaces and the drehriss
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2005-09-15)Isometric deformations of immersed surfaces in Euclidean 3-space are studied by means of the drehriss. When the immersion is of constant mean curvature and the deformation preserves the mean curvature, we determine the ... -
Snake venom potency and yield are associated with prey‐evolution, predator metabolism and habitat structure
(Wiley, 2019-01-07)Snake venom is well known for its ability to incapacitate and kill prey. Yet, potency and the amount of venom available varies greatly across species, ranging from the seemingly harmless to those capable of killing vast ... -
SnCl4- and TiCl4-catalyzed anomerization of acylated O- and S-Glycosides: analysis of factors that lead to higher alpha:beta anomer ratios and reaction rates
(American Chemical Society, 2010-09-13)The quantification of factors that influence both rates and stereoselectivity of anomerization reactions catalyzed by SnCl4 and TiCl4 and how this has informed the synthesis of alpha-O- and alpha-S-glycolipids is discussed ... -
