Introducing XGL: a lexicalised probabilistic graphical lemmatiser for isiXhosa
(IEEE, 2015)In this paper, a lexicalized probabilistic graphical lemmatiser for isiXhosa, XGL, is presented. An overview of isiXhosa lemmatisation issues is given, followed by a discussion on previous work in automated lemmatisation ... -
Intrusion detection in Bluetooth enabled mobile phones
(IEEE, 2015)Bluetooth plays a major role in expanding global spread of wireless technology. This predominantly happens through Bluetooth enabled mobile phones, which cover almost 60% of the Bluetooth market. Although Bluetooth mobile ... -
The intuitive approach to engineering design of a multi-cultural group of engineering students
(IEEE, 2011)We all acknowledge the importance of design in the world of an engineer, and much effort goes into teaching the best practices to our students. We however seldom examine what their intuitive approach to engineering design ... -
Investigating brightest cluster galaxies: kinematics with SALT
(South African Institute of Physics, 2014)We present detailed, high spatial and spectral resolution, longslit observations of four active central cluster galaxies (CCGs) in cooling flow clusters (Abell 0085, 0133, 0644 and Ophiuchus). Our sample consists of CCGs ... -
Investigating gamma-ray fluxes from globular clusters
(SAIP, 2016)Globular clusters are large collections of old stars that are orbiting the core of a galaxy. Our Milky Way Galaxy has about 160 known clusters, with perhaps more to be discovered. We first accumulated the necessary ... -
INVESTIGATING INCENTIVE STRATEGIES TO INCREASE EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT AT AN ENGINEERING SERVICES ENTITY
(IBC, 2021)The feasibility of a points-based reward incentive scheme with game-like activities was proposed in this study to increase employee engagement. This was done by investigating conventional incentive and ... -
Investigating the hot gas in active brightest cluster galaxies
(PoS, 2016)We investigate a crucial phase in the cooling–feedback cycle in the star forming Brightest Clus- ter Galaxies (BCGs) by looking at the optical emission line properties of the reheated gas that ultimately causes the cycle ... -
INVESTIGATING WATER DISCLOSURE PRACTISES IN THE PLATINUM MINING INDUSTRY
(2021)Increased population growth and urbanisation have led to signifi cant stress on natural resources, in particular water resources. Various mining-related operations, especially in the platinum ... -
An investigation into measurements and determinants of energy poverty: evidence from cross-section data in Malawi
(The Global Business and Technology Association, 2013)Using economics approaches of measuring energy poverty, the findings of the study suggest that over 90 percent of the households sampled were energy poor. The Logit model of energy poverty reveal that household expenditure ... -
An investigation into the accuracy of the kriging method for multiple Wi-Fi access point RSSI estimation
(SATNAC, 2014)Kriging was originally developed for geographical interpolation purposes, but has proven to be a powerful tool in many other applications as well. In this study we evaluate the accuracy of kriging for Wi-Fi signal ... -
An investigation into the bioavailability of a peroral cannabinoid-Pheroid® formulation
(Elsevier, 2019)Cannabidiol (CBD), a phytocannabinoid isolated from the Cannabis sativa plant, has been investigated for its medicinal properties including anti-psychotic, anti- emetic, anti-inflammatory, anxiolytic and anti- convulsant ... -
An investigation into the economics of fuel management in the freight logistics industry
(IEEE, 2014)The transport and logistics industry has to confront many challenges to achieve the objective of efficient distributed operations, such as vehicle and cargo traceability and security. Research has identified effective ... -
An investigation into the use of the kriging for Wi-Fi RSSI estimation in complex indoor environments
(IEEE, 2015)Kriging was originally developed for geographical interpolation purposes, but has proven to be a powerful tool in many other applications as well. In this study we evaluate kriging for Wi-Fi signal strength estimation in ... -
An investigation into the variation in porosity of a direct metal laser sintered artifact manufactured with the EOSINT M250 machine system using direct metal 20 powder
(RAPDASA, 2014)Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) is a rapid prototyping technique that allows for direct and rapid manufacturing of complex components. DMLS is however an intricate process and the quality of the final product is ... -
Investigation of 1D system CFD and 3D CFD numerical methodology applied to an experimental facility
(SAAM, 2018)The fourth generation gas-cooled nuclear reactor designs provide a promising prospect for energy and process heat generation. The designs` cycles have high thermal efficiencies, require relatively little fuel and are safe ... -
Investigation of effective chemical flocculation conditions for the treatment of reverse osmosis reject water from coal power plant: a case study
(Desalination Publications, 2020)Power generation processes generate wastewater that is rich in scale-forming agents and which, therefore, requires suitable pre-treatment prior to further treatment with an RO system. In this study, Rheofloc5023 was used ... -
