Emissies Kwantifisering
Aug 06, 2021 - Die fokus is hier op die monitering en kwantifisering van bestaande uitstoot van Eskom kragstasies in terme van kweekhuisgasse en besoedelstowwe. Dit is ook belangrik om die atmosfeer waarin emissies vrygestel word, te verstaan, die uitwerking van emissies op luggehalte, langtermynafsettiging na die biosfeer en hidrosfeer en bydraes tot die…
Emissions Quantification
Aug 06, 2021 - The focus here is on monitoring and quantifying existing emissions from Eskom power stations in terms of greenhouse gases and pollutants. Also of importance is to understand the atmosphere into which emissions are released, the impact of emissions on air quality, long-term deposition to the biosphere and hydrosphere and contributions to the…
Uitlaatgasse Beheer Tegnologieë
Aug 06, 2021 - Die fokus is hier op die verbetering van die prestasie van bestaande versagtende tegnologieë vir deeltjies>, SO2 NOx, CO2 en Hg vir Suid-Afrikaanse steenkool eienskappe en plant toestande. Meesters en PhD-studies kan nagestreef word in onderwerpe wat verband hou met die volgende navorsingstemas: [accordion collapsed] Elektrostatiese…
Emissions Control Technologies
Aug 06, 2021 - The focus here is on improving the performance of existing mitigation technologies for particulate matter, SO2 NOx, CO2 and Hg for South African coal characteristics and plant conditions. Masters and PhD studies can be pursued in topics related to the following research themes: [accordion collapsed] Electrostatic Precipitation (ESP…

About MUST Deep Learning
Feb 10, 2025 - MUST Deep Learning is a research group within the Faculty of Engineering at NWU. We perform basic and applied research in machine learning, with an emphasis on the theory and application of deep learning. Our theoretical work focuses on some of the central open questions related to how these models learn and why they perform so well. Our…
Background
May 02, 2024 - The relationship between mind and matter is perhaps the deepest intellectual challenge facing humanity. It links to wide ranges of science, philosophy and engineering, and has been infamously resistant to solution. In recent times, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a central theme in addressing this challenge, offering several insights that…
Research projects
Feb 10, 2025 - Current research projects 1. Generalisation in Deep Learning A long-standing theoretical interest in our group focuses on the topic of generalisation - that is, how information learned on a training set of samples is transferred to novel inputs. Investigations on generalisation in Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are…
