"... 1980 and 1995 an internationally diversified portfolio of past medium-term Winners outperforms a portfolio of medium-term Losers after correcting for risk by more than one percent per month. Return continuation is present in all twelve sample countries and lasts on average for about one year. Return ..."

There has been an extensive literature on whether these return patterns reflect an improper response by markets to information
On the Logic of Iterated Belief Revision
- Artificial intelligence
, 1996
"... We show in this paper that the AGM postulates are too week to ensure the rational preservation of conditional beliefs during belief revision, thus permitting improper responses to sequences of observations. We remedy this weakness by proposing four additional postulates, which are sound relative to ..."

Partially Improper Gaussian Priors for Nonparametric Logistic Regression
, 1995
"... A "partially improper" Gaussian prior is considered for Bayesian inference in logistic regression. This includes generalized smoothing spline priors that are used for nonparametric inference about the logit, and also priors that correspond to generalized random effect models. Necessary and ..."

First, the form of the land surface provides an introduction to various geological phenomena and the first indications of subsurface structure and events, past, present and future. Second, knowledge of contemporary proces ..."

Improper organization of the actin cytoskeleton affects protein synthesis at initiation
- Mol. Cell. Biol
, 2007
"... Although the actin cytoskeleton and the translation machinery are considered to be separate cellular complexes, growing evidence supports overlapping regulation of the two systems. Because of its interaction with actin, the eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1A (eEF1A) is proposed to be a regu ..."

Five new mutations were identified along one face of eEF1A. Dramatic changes in cell growth, cell morphology

"... Many animals exhibit rapid escape responses that protect them from attack by predators (Eaton, 1984). Though speed is a primary factor for successful escapes, the decision to initiate these behaviors can also be critical. This decision includes both whether to initiate a response and, if so, when th ..."

. False alarms could further cost the animal by unnecessarily interrupting ongoing behavior, such as tracking prey or a mate. Such improper responses can also make an undetected animal very conspicuous to nearby predators. The timing of an escape response can also be crucial for its success. An evasive
Toward an explanation of the power law artifact: Insights from response surface analysis
- Memory & Cognition
, 2000
"... The power law (y � ax �b) has been shown to provide a good description of data collected in a wide range of fields in psychology. R. B. Anderson and Tweney (1997) suggested that the model’s data-fitting success may in part be artifactual, caused by a number of factors, one of which is the use of imp ..."

A method for studying the geometric relations among responses generated by mathematical models is introduced that shows the artifact is a result of the combined contributions of three
The Snowball Effect: Detailing Performance Anomalies of 802.11 Rate Adaptation

"... Abstract — Current rate adaptation schemes for 802.11 exhibit sudden and severe drops in throughput in real application scenarios. Although there have been several propositions to remedy such rate adaptation failures, there has not been a thorough analysis of the causes that lead to such a “Snowball ..."
