Multi-modal memetic framework for locating saddle points, with application to biomolecular systems : water clusters and ring-deficient covalently-bonded small molecules

Abstract

His sincere encouragements during my indecisive moment and inspirational insight into the many aspects of my research direction have faithfully guided me throughout my research work. Without Professor Ong's guidance, the fruitful achievement of this project will never be possible. I would also like to thank my friends for their encouragements and the staffs at Emerging research Lab (ER Lab) and Center of computational intelligence (C2I) for their technical supports. Last but not the least, special thanks to my parents, wishing God blessing to cover them, for their constant support, understanding and love, until their last breaths.
