Generalizing Graph Neural Network across Graphs and Time
School of Computing and Information Systems
Graph-structured data widely exist in diverse real-world scenarios, such as social networks, e-commerce graphs, citation graphs, and biological networks. Analysis of these graphs can uncover valuable insights about their respective application domains. Meanwhile, graph representation learning provides an effective way to the graph analytics problem.
However, most previous works focused on learning node representation from a single fixed graph, while many real-world scenarios require representations to be quickly generated for unseen nodes, new edges, or entirely new graphs. This inductive ability is essential for high-throughtput machine learning systems, operating on evolving graphs and constantly meeting unseen nodes (e.g. posts on Wikipedia, users and items on Amazon). This inductive graph representation problem is quite difficult, compared to the transductive setting, for that generalizing to unseen nodes requires new subgraphs containing the new nodes to be aligned to the neural network trained already…

School of Computing and Information Systems
The majority of online video content remains inaccessible for blind people due to the lack of audio descriptions despite the mandate from anti-discrimination related regulations for the provision of videos with audio descriptions (AD). Content creators have traditionally relied on professionals to author audio descriptions. How- ever, this gold standard may still not be accessible for casual content creators be- cause this method is still costly and has a long turnaround time.
To address this problem, I introduce four research threads for my Ph.D. dissertation. First, I developed and evaluated a mixed-ability collaboration authoring tool, called ViScene to understand the efficacy of collaborative methods in generating good-quality audio descriptions. Second, we extend ViScene so that it supports authors by automatically generating feedback on AD qualities. Third, I propose to explore the feasibility of AD-post editing to generate high-quality ADs where a program automatically generates the initial AD and hum…

ACE SMU Academy
Decades of research has led Psychology Professor at Stanford University, Carol S. Dweck, to identify people with two types of mindsets – fixed mindset and growth mindset. People with fixed mindset believe that talent and intelligence are predetermined by nature and in finite supply, while people with growth mindset believe that everyone has the capacity to grow, develop and improve their intelligence and ability over time through deliberate practice.
This is validated by advances in neuroscience on brain plasticity, which indicate that brains do change physically, functionally, and chemically throughout our lives and the changes are manifested through our abilities. Our brains are malleable and can be strengthened for further growth and development at all ages through mental exercises, much like how physical exercises can build muscles. The converse is true. Neural pathways that are underused will weaken or be replaced over time.
Professor Dweck’s studies revealed a significant correlation between how peop…

As HR practitioners, are you able to forecast which employees are at risk of leaving? Can you help improve the organisation’s engagement level? Are you well equipped to drive better compensation and benefits design? Leading companies such as Google and Starbucks have adopted data-driven approaches to make decisions about their employees.
Best Buy, an electronics retail store in the USA, found that a 0.1% increase in their employee engagement at a particular store translates into a US$100K increase in the store’s operating revenue.
AT&T and Google found that, for their companies, the ability to take initiative, rather than stellar academic records from prestigious schools is a far better predictor of high performance on a job.
These companies leverage on employee and other data extensively to help them make objective HR decisions.

Area Administration
With overlapping generations and heterogeneous risk aversion there is no unique relation between aggregate risk aversion and the real rate of interest, and this type of endogenous "noise" cannot arise in an economy where agents live forever. Our framework accommodates many agent types and the noise emerges precisely because all (but one) consumption shares drive the economy. Adding wealth dispersion to aggregate risk aversion suffciently summarizes the rich dynamics of the model. Consistent with the model, we construct "level" and “slope” factors that do not require knowledge about agents' risk aversion to predict excess returns.

Facilitating Innovation and Leading Change (Intake 14)
ACE SMU Academy
“Innovation is the lifeblood of any enterprise.” Through this module, you will find out what that means in practice and how to be an entrepreneur without changing jobs. Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong warned against ‘navel gazing’ – the “Hello Kitty” campaign fiasco and the Singapore’s “fish ball stick” story both illustrate the need to adopt a wider and more ‘strategic thinking’ approach. You will learn how to create an environment that encourages risk taking and enterprising behaviours overcoming the “kiasu” and “kiasi” culture. You will also learn how to reduce defensiveness and evolve a learning organisation culture, adaptive in surviving in a VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous) world, as well as apply strategic, “zoom out” Systems Thinking to avoid the “domino effect” of unintended consequences. After weighing risks and rewards, you will see opportunities for innovation and change. You will have fun learning from others and working on practical real-life challenges.

School of Social Sciences
Does communitarianism have a future in Singapore? For more than fifty years, modern Singapore’s communitarian governance, which privileges the communal good over individual self-interest, has made the city-state one of the world’s most successful and cohesive economies. Since the 2000s, however, profound social changes have challenged the ideology and practice of communitarianism.
This talk discusses how immigration, inequality, and liberalization have emerged as points of social division to disrupt communitarianism, how the communal good is perceived, and how it is practiced in public policy. My main argument is that social groups in Singapore have become decoupled from one another, with a marked discontinuity in social trust and cohesion since the early 2000s, making communitarian governance an increasingly challenging prospect.

Coaching is an effective tool to develop talent. Good leaders believe in the value of coaching as coaching can significantly enhance employees' problem-solving skills as well as empower managers, business owners and corporate leaders to be guided in considering alternative/additional perspectives in resolving challenges at work.

Institute of Service Excellence @SMU
OVERVIEW
The landscape of corporate and public relations communications have undergone marked changes in recent years with the advent of digital technologies and social media. No longer is the organisation’s reputational experience confined to the domain of brick and mortar stores. When a service failure occurs, the experience of a single customer can quickly make its way to a wider audience and send rippling negatively effects. Firms can be pulled into political dramas and issues that, only hours before, we thought were not directly relevant to our business. Stakeholder expectations can change just as rapidly with companies being regularly called out about their carbon footprint, employment practices of suppliers, or issues pertaining to gender or age distribution of the workforce.
Managing your corporate reputation, and being well-prepared for crisis response, is more important than ever before. This workshop will enable communication practitioners and management teams to adopt a proactive stance in develo…

School of Social Sciences
Across Southeast Asia, as in many other regions, politicians win elections by distributing cash, goods, jobs, projects, and other benefits to supporters. But they do so in ways that vary tremendously—both across and within countries. This talk, based on a new book, Mobilizing for Elections: Patronage and Political Machines in Southeast Asia (with Edward Aspinall, Meredith Weiss and Paul Hutchcroft), I present a new framework for analyzing variation in patronage democracies, focusing on distinct forms of patronage and different networks through which it is distributed. I do so by drawing on a massive, multi-country, multi-year research effort involving interactions with hundreds of politicians and vote brokers, as well as surveys of voters and political campaigners across the region. I explore how local machines in the Philippines, ad hoc election teams in Indonesia, and political parties in Malaysia pursue distinctive clusters of strategies of patronage distribution—what I term electoral mobilization regimes.…

Rewards (Compensation & Benefits) (Intake 21)
ACE SMU Academy
Staff costs constitute the largest single expense item for most organisations. Faced with an increasingly competitive marketplace, shrinking margins and mounting budgetary pressures, one of the key challenges for organisations is: how do we extract maximum value, and achieve optimal effect, from every dollar spent on staff? A significant part of the answer lies in having a comprehensive Rewards framework, aligned to corporate goals and values, integrated with the wider HR platform, and effectively managed with the objectives of driving performance and strengthening employee engagement.
This module has twin goals: to provide a comprehensive understanding of the conceptual basis for effective Rewards frameworks and programmes (with emphasis on Compensation and Benefits), and impart an appreciation of the practical issues and considerations to be borne in mind when introducing Rewards interventions in real-world settings. Themes explored will include alignment, integration, engagement, ownership and communicat…

SOSS 15th Anniversary Seminar Series | The Psychology of Trust Amid Challenges: Why and How Public Trust Matters
School of Social Sciences
The Covid-19 pandemic and other global and local issues have caused and will continue to cause great disruption to lives, livelihoods, ways of life and quality of life. For societies and organizations to effectively function in the new normal amid challenges of threats and opportunities, a principled, adaptive leadership in which leaders’ decisions, words and actions are highly trusted by the public is needed. Trust is critical for problem-solving because a baseline level of trust is foundational for people to believe their leaders and decide to cooperate or be motivated to perform actions towards achieving the intended outcome. When public trust is low, effective functioning is hampered – leaders, be they in governments, businesses or non-profit organizations, will find it extremely difficult to implement a control measure or an initiative, change a prior decision or explain the change, and galvanize people to collectively manage a crisis. Research in behavioural sciences has consistently shown that trust in…

School of Social Sciences
The concept of demographic privilege (e.g. “white privilege” “male privilege” “class privilege”) is often appealed to by social scientists to explain social phenomena. It has also played a prominent role in recent social justice movements. Yet these appeals are controversial and have generated some critical pushback. Drawing on work by philosophers, I will argue that “privilege” is unhelpfully being used as a label for several morally distinct social phenomena. Furthermore, only some of these phenomena involve “privileges” in the traditional moral sense. The upshot is that “privilege” is too crude a term to accurately capture the relevant moral and social phenomena. To theorize better about social injustices, and resolve the critical pushback, we need a richer conceptual scheme that uses several terms in place of one.

As HR practitioners, are you able to forecast which employees are at risk of leaving? Can you help improve the organisation’s engagement level? Are you well equipped to drive better compensation and benefits design? Leading companies such as Google and Starbucks have adopted data-driven approaches to make decisions about their employees.
Best Buy, an electronics retail store in the USA, found that a 0.1% increase in their employee engagement at a particular store translates into a US$100K increase in the store’s operating revenue.
AT&T and Google found that, for their companies, the ability to take initiative, rather than stellar academic records from prestigious schools is a far better predictor of high performance on a job.
These companies leverage on employee and other data extensively to help them make objective HR decisions.

Achieving Mastery & Success Through Growth Mindset: Part 2 (Intake 6)
ACE SMU Academy
Decades of research has led Psychology Professor at Stanford University, Carol S. Dweck, to identify people with two types of mindsets – fixed mindset and growth mindset. People with fixed mindset believe that talent and intelligence are predetermined by nature and in finite supply, while people with growth mindset believe that everyone has the capacity to grow, develop and improve their intelligence and ability over time through deliberate practice.
This is validated by advances in neuroscience on brain plasticity, which indicate that brains do change physically, functionally, and chemically throughout our lives and the changes are manifested through our abilities. Our brains are malleable and can be strengthened for further growth and development at all ages through mental exercises, much like how physical exercises can build muscles. The converse is true. Neural pathways that are underused will weaken or be replaced over time.
Professor Dweck’s studies revealed a significant correlation between how peop…

To this end, the course aims to help entrepreneurs and business executives enhance their skills in conveying information and exchanging thoughts more clearly and effectively through mediums such as PowerPoint and Webinars.
PowerPoint is one of the most widely used tools in presentation. It is estimated that 30 million PowerPoint presentations are created each day around the world for various entrepreneurial and business purposes such as sales and marketing, reporting, briefings and discussions.

Coaching is an effective tool to develop talent.
