Mathematical modelling of agglomerate scale phenomena in heap bioleaching by Ogbonna, Nneoma

“…The need for efficient heap operations has led to the scientific investigation of heap bioleaching and the development of mathematical models for the process. Over time, the focus of heap leach modelling has moved from models that emphasize particle scale processes to models that emph8size bulk scale processes. …”

Modelling neuroimmune interactions using organotypic slice cultures by Mbobo, Buchule

“…This study investigated the effect of the vaccine strain for tuberculosis, Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) on neural tissue using the model of organotypic hippocampal slice cultures; an in vitro model that overcomes the previously mentioned obstacles. …”

Discriminative training of hidden Markov Models for gesture recognition by Combrink, Jan Hendrik

“…Gesture recognition is a problem of modelling temporal data. Non-temporal models can be used for gesture recognition, but require that the signals be adapted to the models. …”

Towards the development of an integrated modelling framework underpinned by mineralogy by Ntlhabane, Sithembiso

“…The ability to do so requires an integrated modelling framework, underpinned by mineralogy so that the effect of ore variability on one or more of these factors can be simultaneously evaluated and optimised. …”

Stabilised decellularised vascular grafts in an ovine carotid model by Mentor, Keno

“…Chemical stabilization of elastin with penta-galloyl glucose (PGG) combined with collagen stabilisation during covalent heparinisation was previously investigated by our group in a small animal model and shown to be effective and safe. The current study describes their evaluation in a large animal (ovine) model. …”

Sequential Calibration of Asset Pricing Models to Option Prices by Oagile, Joel

“…This paper implements four calibration methods on stochastic volatility models. We estimate the latent state and parameters of the models using three non-linear filtering methods, namely the extended Kalman filter (EKF), iterated extended Kalman filter (IEKF) and the unscented Kalman filter (UKF). …”
