Sample strategies to substantiate freedom from disease.
, 1999
"... Abstract In this paper, we deal with the strategies of surveys to substantiate freedom from disease for a certain territory. Infection might not be distributed homogeneously. So, a relatively high within-herd prevalence might be observed while the herd-level prevalence is lower. For this situation, ..."

FFD: Package to substantiate freedom from disease in R using two-stage sampling
"... In practice, when conducting surveys to substantiate freedom from disease in large populations, two-stage sampling strategies are often used in order to account for herdlevel clustering of diseases. Using a modified hypergeometric formula the optimal sample size can elegantly be computed, while inco ..."

GSAT and Dynamic Backtracking
- Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research
, 1994
"... There has been substantial recent interest in two new families of search techniques. One family consists of nonsystematic methods such as gsat; the other contains systematic approaches that use a polynomial amount of justification information to prune the search space. This paper introduces a new te ..."

technique that combines these two approaches. The algorithm allows substantial freedom of movement in the search space but enough information is retained to ensure the systematicity of the resulting analysis. Bounds are given for the size of the justification database and conditions are presented
Software transactional memory for dynamic-sized data structures
- IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 22ND ACM SYMPOSIUM ON PRINCIPLES OF DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING
, 2003
"... We propose a new form of software transactional memory (STM) designed to support dynamic-sized data structures, and we describe a novel non-blocking implementation. The non-blocking property we consider is obstruction-freedom. Obstruction-freedom is weaker than lock-freedom; as a result, it admits s ..."

Obstruction-free synchronization: Double-ended queues as an example
- In preparation
, 2003
"... We introduce obstruction-freedom, a new nonblocking property for shared data structure implementations. This property is strong enough to avoid the problems associated with locks, but it is weaker than previous nonblocking properties—specifically lock-freedom and wait-freedom— allowing greater flexi ..."

flexibility in the design of efficient implementations. Obstruction-freedom admits substantially simpler implementations, and we believe that in practice it provides the benefits of wait-free and lock-free implementations. To illustrate the benefits of obstruction-freedom, we present two obstruction-free CAS

Controlling the familywise error rate in functional neuroimaging: a comparative review
- Statistical Methods in Medical Research
, 2003
"... Functional neuroimaging data embodies a massive multiple testing problem, where 100 000 correlated test statistics must be assessed. The familywise error rate, the chance of any false positives is the standard measure of Type I errors in multiple testing. In this paper we review and evaluate three a ..."

BEYOND SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE: ETHICAL EQUIVALENCE SYLVIE POUTEAU *
, 2000
"... ABSTRACT: The concept of substantial equivalence, introduced for the risk assessment of genetically modified (GM) food, is a reducing concept because it ignores the context in which these products have been produced and brought to the consumer at the end of the food chain. Food quality cannot be res ..."

F.: Postural hand synergies for tool use
- The Journal of Neuroscience
, 1998
"... Subjects were asked to shape the right hand as if to grasp and use a large number of familiar objects. The chosen objects typically are held with a variety of grips, including “precision” and “power ” grips. Static hand posture was measured by recording the angular position of 15 joint angles of the ..."

Principal components analysis showed that the first two components could account for �80 % of the variance, implying a substantial reduction from
Economic Freedom & Poverty
"... comparing the impact of foreign aid and increased economic freedom on the long-term economic circumstances of countries, critics condemned his finding that aid mechanisms were largely failures in their present form and derided his call for more market capitalism (Lawson, 2002). Yet, further analysis ..."

analysis of the relationship between economic freedom and poverty rates did reveal much empirical evidence indicating that the poorer agents in freer market systems enjoyed substantially higher living conditions than those in centrally planned economies (Gwartney et al., 2008). Part of the reason, it seems
