YE NAN |
Bachelor of Computing (Computer Science) and
Bachelor of Science (Hons) 1st class |
Obtained two NUS First Class honours degrees
in Computer Science and Mathematics in 3.5
years as opposed to the usual 5 years and
completed two research projects in very
different areas: computational biology and
theoretical computer science.
In his computational biology project, he
proposed algorithms for improving the
efficiency and accuracy of peptide
sequencing. His work in computational
biology resulted in an international
workshop (BIODM 2007) paper and is part of
an international journal publication
(Journal of bioinformatics and Computational
Biology). In his theoretical computer
science project, he obtained some new
results on prescribed learning which
improved the current understanding of
inductive inference. His work on inductive
inference is included in an international
conference (ALT 2007) publication and an
international journal publication (Fundamenta
Informaticae).

ZHU YUAN |
Bachelor of Computing (Information Systems)
and MSc(Mgt). |
Her Honours Project on "The Effectiveness
of Blog Advertising: Impact of Communicator
expertise, advertising intent, and product
involvement" was submitted to the
International Conference on Information
Systems (ICIS) 2007 and has been accepted
for presentation at the conference and for
publication in the proceedings.

KOH CHUAN HOCK
|
Bachelor of Computing(Computational Biology) |
A polyadenine tail is found at the 3' end
of nearly every fully processed eukaryotic
mRNA and has been suggested to influence
virtually all aspects of mRNA metabolism.
The ability to predict polyadenylation site
will allow us to define gene boundaries,
predict number of genes present in a
particular gene locus and perhaps better
understand mRNA metabolism. To this end,
Chuan Hock built an arabidopsis
polyadenylation prediction model. The
prediction model uses a machine learning
method which consists of four sequential
steps: feature generation, feature
selection, feature integration and cascade
classifier. Chuan Hock tested his model on
public datasets and achieved more than 97%
sensitivity and specificity. Chuan Hock has
also directly compared with another
arabidopsis prediction models (e.g., PASS
1.0) and has achieved better results.
His work was published in Genome Informatics
Series (vol. 19, pages 73-82, December
2007). His project was also one of the only
three selected for representing NUS at the
3rd Universitas 21 Undergraduate Research
Conference held at McGill University,
Montreal, Canada, October 2007.

LEE KENG SIANG
|
Bachelor of Computing (Computer Science) |
For his UROP, Keng Siang created a system
that is able to simulate human muscles in
real time, allowing more realistic animation
of human characters. The work was published
in an international conference (CGVR 2007)
and selected as one of the three plenary
presentations at the
National Undergraduate Research
Opportunities Programme Congress (NUROP)
2007.

LEK HSIANG HUI |
Bachelor of Computing (Computer Engineering) |
Hsiang Hui developed a system for
browser-based networking that addresses
multiple problems regarding browser-based
computing, including user identification,
server-side load balancing and security. His
work provided the base for several other
student projects and is central in the
open-source TiddlyCard project.

|
SEAH BOON LENG DARYL |
Bachelor of Computing (Computer Science) |
Daryl developed the core of a client-side
operating system that runs within modern web
browsers. For this, he designed and
implemented a JavaScript object system which
is used by a number of other student
projects and is an essential component of
the open-source TiddlyCard project.

OON WEE CHONG |
Doctor of Philosophy |
Wee Chong developed a framework for
analyzing imperfect comparison algorithms.
The work is based on Markov chains and can
explain why certain computer programs are
good at solving problems, or playing games
such as checkers and chess.
