Studies of transformation of Escherichia coli with plasmids
- J. Mol. Biol
, 1983
"... Factors that affect he probability of genetic transformation f Escherichia coli by plasmids have been evaluated. A set of conditions is described under which about one in every 400 plasmid molecules produces a transformed cell. These conditions include cell growth in medium containing elevated level ..."

probabilities. Non-transforming DNAs compete consistent with mass. No significant variation is observed between competing DNAs of difi~rent source, complexity, length or form. Competition with both transforming and non-transforming plasmids indicates that each cell is capable of taking up many DNA molecules
Some studies in machine learning using the game of Checkers
- IBM JOURNAL OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
, 1959
"... Two machine-learning procedures have been investigated in some detail using the game of checkers. Enough work has been done to verify the fact that a computer can be programmed so that it will learn to play a better game of checkers than can be played by the person who wrote the program. Furthermor ..."

and relative weights are unknown and unspecified. The principles of machine learning verified by these experiments are, of course, applicable to many other situations.
Two-Sided Matching: A Study in Game-Theoretic Modeling and Analysis
- Econometric Society Monograph Series
, 1990
"... Reading this text on the application of game theory to two-sided matching problems, I relived an experience shared by many readers of this journal-the process known as &dquo;resident match.&dquo; At a prescribed moment, over 90 % of sen-ior medical students frantically tear open an envelope ..."

A case study of open source software development: the Apache server
- In: Proceedings of the 22nd International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE 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 ..."

A Measurement Study of Peer-to-Peer File Sharing Systems
, 2002
"... The popularity of peer-to-peer multimedia file sharing applications such as Gnutella and Napster has created a flurry of recent research activity into peer-to-peer architectures. We believe that the proper evaluation of a peer-to-peer system must take into account the characteristics of the peers th ..."

that choose to participate. Surprisingly, however, few of the peer-to-peer architectures currently being developed are evaluated with respect to such considerations. In this paper, we remedy this situation by performing a detailed measurement study of the two popular peer-to-peer file sharing systems, namely
Eye movements in reading and information processing: 20 years of research
- Psychological Bulletin
, 1998
"... Recent studies of eye movements in reading and other information processing tasks, such as music reading, typing, visual search, and scene perception, are reviewed. The major emphasis of the review is on reading as a specific example of cognitive processing. Basic topics discussed with respect to re ..."

is that eye movement data reflect moment-to-moment cognitive processes in the various tasks examined. Theoretical and practical considerations concerning the use of eye movement data are also discussed. Many studies using eye movements to investigate cognitive processes have appeared over the past 20 years
Loopy belief propagation for approximate inference: An empirical study. In:
- Proceedings of Uncertainty in AI,
, 1999
"... Abstract Recently, researchers have demonstrated that "loopy belief propagation" -the use of Pearl's polytree algorithm in a Bayesian network with loops -can perform well in the context of error-correcting codes. The most dramatic instance of this is the near Shannon-limit performanc ..."

that loopy propagation can also work well for graphs with many small loops. At the same time, our experimental results suggest a cautionary note about loopy propagation, showing that the marginals may exhibit oscillations that have very little correlation with the correct marginals. We presented some
The file drawer problem and tolerance for null results
- Psychological Bulletin
, 1979
"... For any given research area, one cannot tell how many studies have been con-ducted but never reported. The extreme view of the "file drawer problem " is that journals are filled with the 5 % of the studies that show Type I errors, while the file drawers are filled with the 95 % of the stud ..."

Graphs over Time: Densification Laws, Shrinking Diameters and Possible Explanations

Many studies have discovered patterns in static graphs, identifying properties in a single snapshot of a large network, or in a very small number of snapshots; these include hea ..."

Genomic control for association studies
, 1999
"... A dense set of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) covering the genome and an efficient method to assess SNP genotypes are expected to be available in the near future. An outstanding question is how to use these technologies efficiently to identify genes affecting liability to complex disorders. ..."

independent; and, by using Bayesian outlier methods, it circumvents the need for Bonferroni correction for multiple tests, leading to better performance in many settings while still constraining risk for false positives. The performance of our genomic control method is quite good for plausible effects
