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 Tomomasa Yamasaki – This dissertation proposes an integrated research framework that spans algorithm-level network evaluation, hardware-aware optimisation, and cycle-accurate performance simulation.

ISTD PhD Oral Defence Seminar by Hee Ming Shan – The proliferation of hateful multimodal content, particularly in the form of hateful memes, poses significant threats to online safety and social cohesion. Although deep learning systems, especially vision-language models, are essential to automated multimodal content moderation, they operate as black boxes, offering limited explainability into their decision-making processes.

ISTD PhD Oral Defense Seminar by Rulin Chen – An assembly comprises parts joined together to achieve a specific form or functionality. Compared to monolithic objects, assemblies have many benefits in terms of fabrication, transportation, and adaptability. Parts of assemblies are always geometrically simple to fabricate with digital techniques, can be efficiently packed for transportation, and offer adaptability through flexible replacement or modification. Hence, assemblies are widely used in our daily lives that most of our consumer products, industry machines, and architectural structures are assemblies.
