What Do a Million Observations on Banks Say About the Transmission of Monetary Policy?
, 2000
"... We study the monetary-transmission mechanism with a data set that includes quarterly observations of every insured U.S. commercial bank from 1976 to 1993. We find that the impact of monetary policy on lending is stronger for banks with less liquid balance sheets—i.e., banks with lower ratios of secu ..."

Policy driven management of distributed systems
- Journal of Network and Systems Management
, 1994
"... Separating management policy from the automated managers which interpret the policy facilitates the dynamic change of behaviour of a distributed management system. This permits it to adapt to evolutionary changes in the system being managed and to new application requirements. Changing the behaviour ..."

Algorithms for Inverse Reinforcement Learning
- in Proc. 17th International Conf. on Machine Learning
, 2000
"... This paper addresses the problem of inverse reinforcement learning (IRL) in Markov decision processes, that is, the problem of extracting a reward function given observed, optimal behaviour. IRL may be useful for apprenticeship learning to acquire skilled behaviour, and for ascertaining the re ..."

The concept of power
- Behavioral Science
, 1957
"... What is “power”? Most people have an intuitive notion of what it means. But scientists have not yet formulated a statement of the concept of power that is rigorous enough to be of use in the sys-tematic study of this important social phenomenon. Power is here defined in terms of a relation between p ..."

Do Actions Speak Louder Than Words? The Response of Asset Prices to Monetary Policy Actions and Statements
- International Journal of Central Banking
, 2005
"... We investigate the effects of U.S. monetary policy on asset prices using a high-frequency event-study analysis. We test whether these effects are adequately captured by a single factor—changes in the federal funds rate target—and find that they are not. Instead, we find that two factors are required ..."

are required. These factors have a structural interpretation as a “current federal funds rate target ” factor and a “future path of policy” factor, with the latter closely associated with Federal Open Market Committee statements. We measure the effects of these two factors on bond yields and stock prices using
Named Graphs, Provenance and Trust

"... The Semantic Web consists of many RDF graphs nameable by URIs. This paper extends the syntax and semantics of RDF to cover such Named Graphs. This enables RDF statements that describe graphs, which is beneficial in many Semantic Web application areas. As a case study, we explore the application area ..."

Unnatural Experiments? Estimating the Incidence of Endogenous Policies
- Economic Journal
, 2000
"... There are numerous empirical studies that exploit variation in policies over space and time in the U.S. federal system. If state policy making is purposeful action, responsive to economic and political conditions within the state, then it is necessary to identify and control for the forces that lead ..."
