A case study of open source software development: the Apache server

by Audris Mockus, Roy T. Fielding, James Herbsleb - In: Proceedings of the 22nd International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE 2000 , 2000
"... According to its proponents, open source style software development has the capacity to compete successfully, and perhaps in many cases displace, traditional commercial development methods. In order to begin investigating such claims, we examine the development process of a major open source applica ..."

application, the Apache web server. By using email archives of source code change history and problem reports we quantify aspects of developer participation, core team size, code ownership, productivity, defect density, and problem resolution interval for this OSS project. This analysis reveals a unique

Recognizing action units for facial expression analysis

by Ying-li Tian, Takeo Kanade, Jeffrey F. Cohn - PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 2001
"... Most automatic expression analysis systems attempt to recognize a small set of prototypic expressions, such as happiness, anger, surprise, and fear. Such prototypic expressions, however, occur rather infrequently. Human emotions and intentions are more often communicated by changes in one or a few ..."

Preference and Belief: Ambiguity and Competence in Choice under Uncertainty

by Chip Heath, Amos Tversky - JOURNAL OF RISK AND UNCERTAINTY , 1991
"... We investigate the relation between judgments of probability and preferences between bets. A series of experiments provides support for the competence hypothesis that people prefer betting on their own judgment over an equiprobable chance event when they consider themselves knowledgeable, but not o ..."

of inferring beliefs from preferences is questioned. The uncertainty we encounter in the world is not readily quantified. We may feel that our favorite football team has a good chance to win the championship match, that the price of gold will probably go up, and that the incumbent mayor is unlikely

The Communicative Multiagent Team Decision Problem: Analyzing Teamwork Theories and Models

by David V. Pynadath, Milind Tambe - JOURNAL OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE RESEARCH , 2002
"... Despite the significant progress in multiagent teamwork, existing research does not address the optimality of its prescriptions nor the complexity of the teamwork problem. Without a characterization of the optimality-complexity tradeoffs, it is impossible to determine whether the assumptions and app ..."
Abstract - Cited by 233 (21 self) - Add to MetaCart
combines and extends existing multiagent theories, such as decentralized partially observable Markov decision processes and economic team theory. In addition to their generality of representation, COM-MTDPs also support the analysis of both the optimality of team performance and the computational

Extracting topographic structure from digital elevation data for geographic information system analysis. Photogrammetric Engineering and Remote

by S. K. Jenson, J. O. Domingue - Sensing , 1988
"... ABSTRACT: Software tools have been developed at the U.S. Geological Survey’s EROS Data Center to extract topographic structure and to delineate watersheds and overland flow paths from digital elevation models. The tools are special purpose FORTRAN programs interfaced with general-purpose raster and ..."

drainage network, or pour point linkages between watersheds. The computer-generated drainage lines and watershed polygons and the pour point linkage information can be transferred to vector-based geographic information systems for further analysis. Comparisons between these computer generated features

Team Incentives and Worker Heterogeneity: An Empirical Analysis of the Impact of Teams on Productivity and Participation

by H. Hamilton, Jack A. Nickerson, Hideo Owan, Their Data Robert Pollack, Roger Koenker, Bernd Fitzenberger, Ambar Rao, Glenn Macdonald, Steven Levitt - Journal of Political Economy , 2003
"... This paper identifies and evaluates rationales for team participation and for the effects of team composition on productivity using novel data from a garment plant that shifted from individual piece rate to group piece rate production over three years. The adoption of teams at the plant improved wor ..."

Model evaluation guidelines for systematic quantification of accuracy in watershed simulations

by D. N. Moriasi, J. G. Arnold, M. W. Van Liew, R. L. Bingner, R. D. Harmel, T. L. Veith , 2007
"... Watershed models are powerful tools for simulating the effect of watershed processes and management on soil and water resources. However, no comprehensive guidance is available to facilitate model evaluation in terms of the accuracy of simulated data compared to measured flow and constituent values ..."
