An almost ideal demand system.

by Angus Deaton , John Muellbauer - American Economic Review, , 1980
"... Ever since Richard Stone (1954) first estimated a system of demand equations derived explicitly from consumer theory, there has been a continuing search for alternative specifications and functional forms. Many models have been proposed, but perhaps the most important in current use, apart from the ..."

hope to be able to reveal more clearly the problems and potential solutions associated with the usual approach. I. Specification of the AIDS In much of the recent literature on systems of demand equations, the starting point has been the specification of a function which is general enough to act as a

Ad-hoc On-Demand Distance Vector Routing

by Charles E. Perkins, Elizabeth M. Royer - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2ND IEEE WORKSHOP ON MOBILE COMPUTING SYSTEMS AND APPLICATIONS , 1997
"... An ad-hoc network is the cooperative engagement of a collection of mobile nodes without the required intervention of any centralized access point or existing infrastructure. In this paper we present Ad-hoc On Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV), a novel algorithm for the operation of such ad-hoc n ..."

Surface reconstruction from unorganized points

by Hugues Hoppe, Tony DeRose, Tom Duchamp, John McDonald, Werner Stuetzle - COMPUTER GRAPHICS (SIGGRAPH ’92 PROCEEDINGS) , 1992
"... We describe and demonstrate an algorithm that takes as input an unorganized set of points fx1�:::�xng IR 3 on or near an unknown manifold M, and produces as output a simplicial surface that approximates M. Neither the topology, the presence of boundaries, nor the geometry of M are assumed to be know ..."

to be known in advance — all are inferred automatically from the data. This problem naturally arises in a variety of practical situations such as range scanning an object from multiple view points, recovery of biological shapes from two-dimensional slices, and interactive surface sketching.

Diversity and Multiplexing: A Fundamental Tradeoff in Multiple Antenna Channels

by Lizhong Zheng, David N. C. Tse - IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory , 2002
"... Multiple antennas can be used for increasing the amount of diversity or the number of degrees of freedom in wireless communication systems. In this paper, we propose the point of view that both types of gains can be simultaneously obtained for a given multiple antenna channel, but there is a fund ..."

MAFFT version 5: improvement in accuracy of multiple sequence alignment

by Kazutaka Katoh, Kei-ichi Kuma, Hiroyuki Toh, Takashi Miyata - NUCLEIC ACIDS RES , 2005
"... The accuracy of multiple sequence alignment pro-gram MAFFT has been improved. The new version (5.3) of MAFFT offers new iterative refinement options, H-INS-i, F-INS-i and G-INS-i, in which pairwise alignment information are incorporated into objective function. These new options of MAFFT showed high ..."

the effect of the number of homologues included in an alignment. For a multiple alignment consisting of 8 sequences with low similarity, the accuracy was improved (2–10 percentage points) when the sequences were aligned together with dozens of their close homologues (E-value, 105–1020) col-lected from a

Capacity of a Mobile Multiple-Antenna Communication Link in Rayleigh Flat Fading

by Thomas L. Marzetta, Bertrand M. Hochwald
"... We analyze a mobile wireless link comprising M transmitter and N receiver antennas operating in a Rayleigh flat-fading environment. The propagation coefficients between every pair of transmitter and receiver antennas are statistically independent and unknown; they remain constant for a coherence int ..."

interval of T symbol periods, after which they change to new independent values which they maintain for another T symbol periods, and so on. Computing the link capacity, associated with channel coding over multiple fading intervals, requires an optimization over the joint density of T M complex transmitted

Multiobjective Optimization Using Nondominated Sorting in Genetic Algorithms

by N. Srinivas, Kalyanmoy Deb - Evolutionary Computation , 1994
"... In trying to solve multiobjective optimization problems, many traditional methods scalarize the objective vector into a single objective. In those cases, the obtained solution is highly sensitive to the weight vector used in the scalarization process and demands the user to have knowledge about t ..."

The eyes have it: A task by data type taxonomy for information visualizations

by Ben Shneiderman - IN IEEE SYMPOSIUM ON VISUAL LANGUAGES , 1996
"... A useful starting point for designing advanced graphical user interjaces is the Visual lnformation-Seeking Mantra: overview first, zoom and filter, then details on demand. But this is only a starting point in trying to understand the rich and varied set of information visualizations that have been ..."

Bank Runs, Deposit Insurance, and Liquidity

by Douglas W. Diamond, Philip H. Dybvig - Journal of Political Economy , 2000
"... This article develops a model which shows that bank deposit contracts can provide allocations superior to those of exchange markets, offering an explanation of how banks subject to runs can attract deposits. Investors face privately observed risks which lead to a demand for liquidity. Traditional ..."

. Traditional demand deposit contracts which provide liquidity have multiple equilibria, one of which is a bank run. Bank runs in the model cause real economic damage, rather than simply reflecting other problems. Contracts which can prevent runs are studied, and the analysis shows

On the algorithmic implementation of multi-class kernel-based vector machines

by Koby Crammer, Yoram Singer, Nello Cristianini, John Shawe-taylor, Bob Williamson - Journal of Machine Learning Research
"... In this paper we describe the algorithmic implementation of multiclass kernel-based vector machines. Our starting point is a generalized notion of the margin to multiclass problems. Using this notion we cast multiclass categorization problems as a constrained optimization problem with a quadratic ob ..."

We describe an efficient fixed-point algorithm for solving the reduced optimization problems and prove its convergence. We then discuss technical details that yield
