Scalable hierarchical evolution strategies by Abramowitz, Sasha

“…We introduce a novel method merging S-ES and HRL, which creates a highly scalable and fast (wall-clock time) algorithm. We demonstrate that S-ES needs no hyper-parameter tuning for the HRL tasks tested and is indifferent to delayed rewards. …”

Full 3+1 dimensional simulation of the relativistic Boltzmann equation by Grunow, Ernst William

“…Despite the success of hydrodynamics, it has several shortcomings stemming from the fact that it assumes a system close to equilibrium. …”

Multilevel inverters for renewable energy systems by Chiwaridzo, Pride

“…Voltage source inverters have become widely used in the last decade primarily due to the fact that the dangers and limitations of relying on fossil fuel based power generation have been seen and the long term effects felt especially with regards to climate change. …”

The use of recursive partitioning to build a financial distress prediction for JSE listed companies by Smit, Candice

“…This paper employs both the CART and CHAID algorithm and obtains financially distressed prediction models which have a higher correct classification rate than chance alone and prior literature in South Africa. …”

Translation and rotational motion compensation techniques for Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) Imaging of sea vessels by Ebrahim, Azhar

“…On the other hand, for the Zayaan vessel, the dominant scatterer autofocus method produced a slightly higher contrast (0.0171 dB) compared to the weighted multiple scatterer method. This highlighted the fact that the choice of autofocus algorithm depends on the dataset. …”

Investigation of the effects of image compression on the geometric quality of digital protogrammetric imagery by Kwabena-Forkuo, Eric

“…In the experiments, the JPEG was used to compress and decompress a set of test images. The algorithm has been tested on digital images containing various levels of entropy (a measure of information content of an image) with different image capture capabilities. …”
