Three practical field normalised alternative indicator formulae for research evaluation [PDF]
Although altmetrics and other web-based alternative indicators are now commonplace in publishers' websites, they can be difficult for research evaluators to use because of the time or expense of the data, the need to benchmark in order to assess their values, the high proportion of zeros in some alternative indicators, and the time taken to calculate ...

Optimising inter-patient image registration for image-based data mining in breast radiotherapy [PDF]
Background and purpose: Image-based data mining (IBDM) requires spatial normalisation to reference anatomy, which is challenging in breast radiotherapy due to variations in the treatment position, breast shape and volume.

Normalised rotation capacity for deformability evaluation of high-performance concrete beams [PDF]
High-strength concrete (HSC) is becoming more popular in the construction of beams and columns of tall buildings because of its higher stiffness and strength-to-weight ratio. However, as HSC is more brittle than normal-strength concrete (NSC), it may adversely affect the flexural ductility and deformability of concrete members.

Evaluation of Statistical Text Normalisation Techniques for Twitter
One of the major challenges in the era of big data use is how to âcleanâ the vast amount of data, particularly from micro-blog websites like Twitter. Twitter messages, called tweets, are commonly written in ill-forms, including abbreviations, repeated characters, and misspelled words.

In the current global discourse on HIV, antiretroviral therapy has been effective in suppressing viral load to an undetectable level and render HIV non-infectious. Central to this discourse is the sociological idea that effective antiretroviral treatment has fostered normalisation of HIV in everyday life.
