in There is no doubt that the availability of cheap and powerful computers has increased the interest in ML applications. With spatially correlated data, the maximization of the likelihood requires considerable computer power mainly for two numerical operations: matrix inversion and maximization in multidimensional

In recent years, simple policy rules have received attention as a means to a more transparent and effective monetary policy. Often, however, the analysis is based on unrealistic assumptions about the timeliness of data availability. This permits rule specifications that are not operational

are highly crosscorrelated, and principal components analysis implies they are mostly driven by a single common factor. Although we consider several macro-economic and financial variables as candidate proxies, we cannot explain this common systematic component. Our results suggest that monthly credit spread

Separation of sources consists in recovering a set of signals of which only instantaneous linear mixtures are observed. In many situations, no a priori information on the mixing matrix is available: the linear mixture should be `blindly' processed. This typically occurs in narrow-band array

, they aggressively reduce the volume of information collected and reported, although aggregation can hide striking di erences in program behavior. This paper addresses both concerns by exploiting the hardware counters available in most modern processors and by incorporating two concepts from data ow analysis { ow

propositions about supply, demand, and the pattern of production; and before indicating the historical content of the categories I shall briefly state the underlying propositions. A Dynamic Theory of Production The classical theory of production is formulated under essentially static assumptions which freeze

where nodes are not required to exchange information about the entire network topology, but only locally available information is considered. Then SimBet Routing is proposed which exploits the exchange of pre-estimated ‘betweenness’ centrality metrics and locally determined social ‘similarity

. We survey the quadratic eigenvalue problem, treating its many applications, its mathematical properties, and a variety of numerical solution techniques. Emphasis is given to exploiting both the structure of the matrices in the problem (dense, sparse, real, complex, Hermitian, skew

We examined the internal and external validity of the Narcissistic Personality Inventory (NPI). Study 1 explored the internal structure of the NPI responses of 1,018 subjects. Using principal-components analysis, we analyzed the tetrachoric correlations among the NPI item responses and found

Data dependences (data flow constraints) present a major hurdle to the amount of instruction-level parallelism that can be exploited from a program. Recent work has suggested that the limits imposed by data dependences can be overcome to some extent with the use of data value prediction. That is
