The anatomy of a large-scale hypertextual web search engine.
- Comput. Netw. ISDN Syst.,
, 1998
"... Abstract In this paper, we present Google, a prototype of a large-scale search engine which makes heavy use of the structure present in hypertext. Google is designed to crawl and index the Web efficiently and produce much more satisfying search results than existing systems. The prototype with a fu ..."
The Symbol Grounding Problem
, 1990
"... There has been much discussion recently about the scope and limits of purely symbolic models of the mind and about the proper role of connectionism in cognitive modeling. This paper describes the "symbol grounding problem": How can the semantic interpretation of a formal symbol system be m ..."

be made intrinsic to the system, rather than just parasitic on the meanings in our heads? How can the meanings of the meaningless symbol tokens, manipulated solely on the basis of their (arbitrary) shapes, be grounded in anything but other meaningless symbols? The problem is analogous to trying to learn
Practical Feature Subset Selection for Machine Learning
, 1998
"... Machine learning algorithms automatically extract knowledge from machine readable information. Unfortunately, their success is usually dependant on the quality of the data that they operate on. If the data is inadequate, or contains extraneous and irrelevant information, machine learning algorithms ..."

may produce less accurate and less understandable results, or may fail to discover anything of use at all. Feature subset selectors are algorithms that attempt to identify and remove as much irrelevant and redundant information as possible prior to learning. Feature subset selection can result
The WCRP CMIP3 multimodel dataset: A new ero in climate change research
, 2007
"... Open access to an unprecedented, comprehensive coordinated set of global coupled climate model experiments for twentieth and twenty-first century climate and other experiments is changing the way researchers and students analyze and learn about climate. The history of climate change modeling was fir ..."

Level 2 – Learning: did they learn anything from it?
"... Systems thinking and evaluating training If you mention 'training evaluation ' to anyone who has worked in the training industry for any length of time, they will almost certainly think about 'Kirkpatrick's four levels'. This taxonomy (Kirkpatrick 2006) for evaluating traini ..."

Getting to scale with good educational practice
- Harvard Educational Review
, 1996
"... How can good educational practice move beyond pockets of excellence to reach a much greater proportion of students and educators? While many children and young adults in school districts and communities around the country have long benefited from the tremendous accomplishments of successful teachers ..."

efforts, under current conditions, will be ineffective and transient. He concludes with four detailed recommendations for addressing the issue of scale in improving practice in education. The Problem of Scale in Educational Reform Why do good ideas about teaching and learning have so little impact on U
Candidate indistinguishability obfuscation and functional encryption for all circuits
- In FOCS
, 2013
"... In this work, we study indistinguishability obfuscation and functional encryption for general circuits: Indistinguishability obfuscation requires that given any two equivalent circuits C0 and C1 of similar size, the obfuscations of C0 and C1 should be computationally indistinguishable. In functional ..."

. In functional encryption, ciphertexts encrypt inputs x and keys are issued for circuits C. Using the key SKC to decrypt a ciphertext CTx = Enc(x), yields the value C(x) but does not reveal anything else about x. Furthermore, no collusion of secret key holders should be able to learn anything more than the union
Have we learned anything new about he use of evaluation
- American Journal of Evaluation
, 1998
"... Articles should deal with topics applicable to the broadfield ofprogram evaluation. Articles may deal with evaluation practice or theory, but if the latter, implications for practicing evaluators should be clearly identified. Examples of contributions include, but are not limited to, reviews of new ..."

Articles should deal with topics applicable to the broadfield ofprogram evaluation. Articles may deal with evaluation practice or theory, but if the latter, implications for practicing evaluators should be clearly identified. Examples of contributions include, but are not limited to, reviews of new developments in evaluation and descriptions of a current evaluation effort, problem, or technique. Results of empirical evaluation studies will be published only if the methods atuUorjindings have clear utility to other evaluation practitioners. Manuscripts should include appropriate references and normally should not exceed 10 double-spaced typewritten pages in length; longer articles will occasionally be published, but only where their importance to AJE readers is judged to be quite high.
Pathological Outcomes of Observational Learning
- ECONOMETRICA
, 1999
"... This paper explores how Bayes-rational individuals learn sequentially from the discrete actions of others. Unlike earlier informational herding papers, we admit heterogeneous preferences. Not only may type-specific `herds' eventually arise, but a new robust possibility emerges: confounded learn ..."
