Evaluating transformers as memory systems in reinforcement learning by Makkink, Thomas

“…Memory is an important component of effective learning systems and is crucial in non-Markovian as well as partially observable environments. In recent years, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks have been the dominant mechanism for providing memory in reinforcement learning, however, the success of transformers in natural language processing tasks has highlighted a promising and viable alternative. …”

Properties of Western Cape concrete with metakaolin by Bakera, Alice Titus

“…With these problems, the use of Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCMs) is found to be an appropriate solution, as it contributes to the reduction of cement used in concrete by partially replacing cement with SCMs. However, a challenge arises as to the availability of SCMs. …”

Pathways of intracellular protein degradation in cultured muscle cells by Bates, Pamela Joy

“…Incubations of smooth muscle cells under anoxic conditions or with metabolic inhibitors such as fluoride, azide and cyanide, resulted in an inhibition of protein degradation which was greater than, and partially additive to, the effect of chloroquine, i.e. both lysosomal and non-lysosomal degradation pathways have some energy-dependence. …”

Continuum Damage Mechanics (CDM) modelling of dislocation creep in 9-12% Cr creep resistant steels by Stracey, Muhammad Ghalib

“…One of the lesser understood aspects of 9-12%Cr steels is with regard to their long-term material properties specifically that of creep degradation and deformation. This has been partially due to the reliance of creep life predictions in the past being based on accelerated creep testing and empirically based modelling. …”

Monogenic hypercholesterolemia in South Africans : familial hypercholesterolemia in Indians and familial defective apolipoprotein B-100 by Rubinsztein, David Chaim

“…This low number could at least be partially explained by their decreased stability. These mutations were not identified in any other Indian FH or hypercholesterolemic patients. …”

Modelling gametocytes in the presence of interval-censoring by Takawira, Michaela Faro C

“…Censoring occurs when an event has not been observed, and hence the event time is only partially known. Censoring occurs for various reasons, which include the following. …”

Exploring the potential for local end-processing of e-waste in South Africa by Sadan, Zaynab

“…There is currently limited local end-processing capacity, therefore partially upgraded value fractions are prepared for export, while non-viable fractions are stockpiled or disposed of in local landfills. …”

Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane with carbon dioxide over iron-nickel nano-alloys supported on metal oxide overlayers by Raseale, Shaine

“…The reaction follows a Mars van Krevelen mechanism where the oxide is partially reduced upon ethane activation and subsequently re-oxidized upon CO2- activation [13]. …”
