ESD Research Seminar by Ling Chun Kai – One challenge in multiagent environments is the presence of teams — groups of agents acting in a coordinated fashion that distinguish themselves from individuals. This talk touches on two situations where teams are prevalent.

ESD Research Seminar by Warut Suksompong – Fair resource allocation is a fundamental problem in society, with applications ranging from inheritance division to ministry allocation. While the fair division literature typically assumes that all agents have the same entitlement to the resource, several practical applications involve agents with varying entitlements represented by weights.

ISTD PhD Oral Defence Seminar by Ong Kian Eng – Understanding and analysing animal behaviours is crucial for gaining profound insights into the health, needs, and overall well-being of the animal. This involves measuring and monitoring factors such as size, growth, poses, and actions. The analysis of animal behaviour holds significant importance in a wide range of domains and industries, such as livestock farming, veterinary sciences, scientific research, ecological and conservation studies.

ISTD PhD Oral Defence Seminar by Joel Ong – We explore the modern application of deep learning techniques in portfolio construction, presenting innovative methodologies that significantly enhance traditional investment strategies. Central to this research are three advanced frameworks that leverage deep learning to optimize financial portfolios.

ESD Research Seminar by Aras Selvi – This work demonstrates that mixed-feature problems can indeed be solved in polynomial time.

ISTD PhD Oral Defence Seminar by Perry Lam – Neural networks are known to be over-parametrised and sparse models have been shown to perform as well as dense models over a range of image and language processing tasks. However, while compact representations and model compression methods have been applied to speech tasks, sparsification techniques have rarely been used on text-to-speech (TTS) models. We seek to characterise the impact of selected sparse techniques on the performance and model complexity.
