Model-Driven Data Acquisition in Sensor Networks

by Amol Deshpande , Carlos Guestrin, Samuel R. Madden, et al. - IN VLDB , 2004
"... Declarative queries are proving to be an attractive paradigm for interacting with networks of wireless sensors. The metaphor that "the sensornet is a database" is problematic, however, because sensors do not exhaustively represent the data in the real world. In order to map the raw sensor ..."

approximations with probabilistic confidences, significantly more efficient to compute in both time and energy. Utilizing the combination of a model and live data acquisition raises the challenging optimization problem of selecting the best sensor readings to acquire, balancing the increase in the confidence

Mental Accounting Matters

by H. Thaler - JOURNAL OF BEHAVIORAL DECISION MAKING J. BEHAV. DEC. MAKING, 12: 183~206 (1999) , 1999
"... Mental accounting is the set of cognitive operations used by individuals and households to organize, evaluate, and keep track of financial activities. Making use of research on this topic over the past decade, this paper summarizes the current state of our knowledge about how people engage in mental ..."

by implicit or explicit budgets. The third component of mental accounting concerns the frequency with which accounts are evaluated and 'choice bracketing'. Accounts can be balanced daily,

Does Financial Liberalization Spur Growth

by Geert Bekaert, Campbell R. Harvey, Christian Lundblad, Han Kim, Luc Laeven, Michael Pagano, Vicente Pons, Tano Santos, Andrei Shleifer, René Stulz - Journal of Financial Economics , 2005
"... We show that equity market liberalizations, on average, lead to a one percent increase in annual real economic growth over a five-year period. The effect is robust to alternative definitions of liberalization and does not reflect a business cycle effect. The channel of growth is both increased inves ..."

investment post liberalization which partially reflects a decreased cost of capital and increased factor productivity. The additional investment is largely financed by foreign capital leading to deteriorating trade balances. Some of the liberalization effect can be accounted for by coincidental macroeconomic

Mining Knowledge-Sharing Sites for Viral Marketing

by Matthew Richardson, Pedro Domingos , 2002
"... Viral marketing takes advantage of networks of influence among customers to inexpensively achieve large changes in behavior. Our research seeks to put it on a firmer footing by mining these networks from data, building probabilistic models of them, and using these models to choose the best viral mar ..."
Abstract - Cited by 368 (8 self) - Add to MetaCart
optimize the amount of marketing funds spent on each customer, rather than just making a binary decision on whether to market to him. We take into account the fact that knowledge of the network is partial, and that gathering that knowledge can itself have a cost. Our results show the robustness and utility

Mixed Logit with Repeated Choices: Households' Choices Of Appliance Efficiency Level

by David Revelt, Kenneth Train , 1997
"... : Mixed logit models, also called random-parameters or error-components logit, are a generalization of standard logit that do not exhibit the restrictive "independence from irrelevant alternatives" property and explicitly account for correlations in unobserved utility over repeated choices ..."

Capital Flows and Capital-Markets Crises: The Simple Economics of Sudden Stops

by Guillermo A. Calvo - Journal of Applied Economics , 1998
"... Abstract: The paper studies mechanisms through which a sudden stop in international credit flows may bring about financial and balance of payments crises. It is shown that these crises can occur even though the current account deficit is fully financed by foreign direct investment. However, equity a ..."

The argument that follows is based on such a flexible, disaggregated theory of production. When

2004, On the empirics of sudden stops: The relevance of balance-sheet effects, Working Paper 10520

by Guillermo A. Calvo, Alejandro Izquierdo, Luis-fernando Mejía
"... Abstract: Using a sample of 32 developed and developing countries we analyze the empirical characteristics of sudden stops in capital flows and the relevance of balance sheet effects in the likelihood of their materialization. We find that large real exchange rate (RER) fluctuations coming hand in h ..."

The weighting of evidence and the determinants of confidence

by Dale Griffin, Amos Tversky - Cognitive Psychology , 1992
"... The pattern of overconfidence and underconfidence observed in studies of in-tuitive judgment is explained by the hypothesis that people focus on the strength or extremeness of the available evidence (e.g., the warmth of a letter or the size of an effect) with insufficient regard for its weight or cr ..."

We propose that people’s confidence is determined by the balance of arguments for and against

An Integrated Model of Customer Satisfaction with Service Encounters Involving Failure and Recovery,• Working Paper

by Amy K. Smith, Ruth N. Bolton, Janet Wagner , 1997
"... Customers often react strongly to service failures, so it is critical that an organization’s recovery efforts be equally strong and effective. In this article, the authors develop a model of customer satisfaction with service failure/recovery encounters based on an exchange framework that integrates ..."
Abstract - Cited by 181 (5 self) - Add to MetaCart
that integrates concepts from both the consumer satisfaction and social justice literature, using principles of resource exchange, mental accounting, and prospect theory. The research employs a mixed-design experiment, conducted using a survey method, in which customers evaluate various failure/recovery scenarios
