A slow but steady nanoLuc: R162A mutation results in a decreased, but stable, nanoLuc activity by Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

“…In this regard, engineering of brighter bioluminescent proteins, i.e. luciferases, has played a significant role. This is acutely exemplified by the engineering of the NLuc <u>luciferase</u>, which is small in size and displays much enhanced bioluminescence and<u> thermal stability</u> compared to previously available luciferases. …”

The Impact of Distance Learning on Identifying Primary Students with Specific Learning Disorder (SLD) during COVID-19 in Two Schools in Ajman City in the UAE by ABUHATTAB, MONA

“…Finally, various factors posed limitations to the study, including restricted access to schools, restrictive rules of social interaction during the pandemic, and having to rely solely on semi-structured interviews. The significance of this study arises from the sacristy of research, at least locally, and the increasing numbers of cases of learning difficulties, as well as the lack of awareness among all stakeholders on dealing with such cases. …”

Towards secure private and trustworthy human-centric embedded machine learning: An emotion-aware facial recognition case study by Muhammad Atif Butt (10849980)

“…We find that input quantization partially degrades the efficacy of adversarial and backdoor attacks at the cost of a slight decrease in accuracy over clean inputs. By analyzing the explanations generated by SHAP, we identify that the decision of a FER model is largely influenced by features such as eyes, alar crease, lips, and jaws. …”
