Embodying Embodiment in a Structural, Macroeconomic Input-Output Model
, 2003
"... Maryland. Much of the research for this paper was conducted while I was a researcher at the INFORUM research center. I thank the staff of INFORUM, particularly Doug Meade, and its director (and my advisor) Clopper Almon for all of their support and advice. This paper also benefitted from helpful com ..."

comments from participants at the 14 th International Input-Output In this paper, I develop a regression-based system of labor productivity equations which account for capital-embodied technological change and I incorporate this system into IDLIFT, a structural, macroeconomic input-output model of the U
MACROECONOMICS AND REALITY

"... Existing strategies for econometric analysis related to macroeconomics are subject to a number of serious objections, some recently formulated, some old. These objections are summarized in this paper, and it is argued that taken together they make it unlikely that macroeconomic models are in fact ov ..."

Monetary Policy Rules and Macroeconomic Stability: Evidence and Some Theory
- Journal of Economics
, 2000
"... We estimate a forward-looking monetary policy reaction function for the postwar United States economy, before and after Volcker’s appointment as Fed Chairman in 1979. Our results point to substantial differences in the estimated rule across periods. In particular, interest rate policy in the Volcker ..."

in the Volcker-Greenspan period appears to have been much more sensitive to changes in expected in�ation than in the pre-Volcker period. We then compare some of the implications of the estimated rules for the equilibrium properties of in�ation and output, using a simple macroeconomic model, and show
A distributed, developmental model of word recognition and naming
- PSYCHOLOGICAL REVIEW
, 1989
"... A parallel distributed processing model of visual word recognition and pronunciation is described. The model consists of sets of orthographic and phonological units and an interlevel of hidden units. Weights on connections between units were modified during a training phase using the back-propagatio ..."

, and (e) differences in performance on lexieal decision and naming tasks. The model's behavior early in the learning phase corresponds to that of children acquiring word recognition skills. Training with a smaller number of hidden units produces output characteristic of many dys-lexic readers. Naming
Bandera: Extracting Finite-state Models from Java Source Code
- IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 22ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING
, 2000
"... Finite-state verification techniques, such as model checking, have shown promise as a cost-effective means for finding defects in hardware designs. To date, the application of these techniques to software has been hindered by several obstacles. Chief among these is the problem of constructing a fini ..."

Bandera takes as input Java source code and generates a program model in the input language of one of several existing verification tools; Bandera also maps verifier outputs back to the original source code. We discuss the major components of Bandera and give an overview of how it can
Fitting a mixture model by expectation maximization to discover motifs in biopolymers.
- Proc Int Conf Intell Syst Mol Biol
, 1994
"... Abstract The algorithm described in this paper discovers one or more motifs in a collection of DNA or protein sequences by using the technique of expect~tiou ma.,dmization to fit a two-component finite mixture model to the set of sequences. Multiple motifs are found by fitting a mixture model to th ..."

The algorithm requires only a set of unaligned sequences and a number specifying the width of the motifs as input. It returns a model of each motif and a threshold which
Income and Wealth Heterogeneity in the Macroeconomy,
- Journal of Political Economy
, 1998
"... How do movements in the distribution of income and wealth affect the macroeconomy? We analyze this question using a calibrated version of the stochastic growth model with partially uninsurable idiosyncratic risk and movements in aggregate productivity. Our main finding is that, in the stationary st ..."

Similarity Flooding: A Versatile Graph Matching Algorithm and Its Application to Schema Matching
, 2002
"... Matching elements of two data schemas or two data instances plays a key role in data warehousing, e-business, or even biochemical applications. In this paper we present a matching algorithm based on a fixpoint computation that is usable across different scenarios. The algorithm takes two graphs (sch ..."

Depending on the matching goal, a subset of the mapping is chosen using filters. After our algorithm runs, we expect a human to check and if necessary adjust the results. As a
The Nature and Growth of Vertical Specialization in World Trade
- Journal of International Economics
"... Abstract: Dramatic changes are occurring in the nature of international trade. Production processes increasingly involve a sequential, vertical trading chain stretching across many countries, with each country specializing in particular stages of a good’s production sequence. We document a key aspe ..."

Using input-output tables from the OECD and emerging market countries we estimate that vertical specialization accounts for up to 30 % of world exports, and has
Real-Time Computing Without Stable States: A New Framework for Neural Computation Based on Perturbations

A key challenge for neural modeling is to explain how a continuous stream of multi-modal input from a rapidly changing environment can be processed by stereotypical recurrent circuits of integrate-and-fire neurons in real-time. We propose a new computational model for real-time computing on time-var ..."
