to be above average for positive events and below average for negative events, ps<.001. Cognitive and motivational considerations led to predictions that degree of desirability, perceived probability, personal experience, perceived controllability, and stereotype salience would influence the amount

A Sub-Constant Error-Probability Low-Degree Test, and a Sub-Constant Error-Probability PCP Characterization of NP

by Ran Raz , Shmuel Safra - IN PROC. 29TH ACM SYMP. ON THEORY OF COMPUTING, 475-484. EL PASO , 1997
"... We introduce a new low-degree--test, one that uses the restriction of low-degree polynomials to planes (i.e., affine sub-spaces of dimension 2), rather than the restriction to lines (i.e., affine sub-spaces of dimension 1). We prove the new test to be of a very small errorprobability (in particular, ..."

Evaluating Probabilistic Queries over Imprecise Data

by Reynold Cheng - In SIGMOD , 2003
"... Sensors are often employed to monitor continuously changing entities like locations of moving ob-jects and temperature. The sensor readings are reported to a database system, and are subsequently used to answer queries. Due to continuous changes in these values and limited resources (e.g., net-work ..."
