Rape1 and Respectability: Ideas about Sexual Violence and Social Class2
"... Women on low incomes are disproportionately represented among sexual violence survivors, yet feminist research on this topic has paid very little attention to social class. This article blends recent research on class, gender and sexuality with what we know about sexual violence. It is argued that t ..."
Abstract

the sexual and the feminine, drawn via the notion of respectability, is applied to these issues. This piece is intended to catalyse further research and debate, and raises a number of questions for future work on sexual violence and social class.
Random forests
- Machine Learning
, 2001
"... Abstract. Random forests are a combination of tree predictors such that each tree depends on the values of a random vector sampled independently and with the same distribution for all trees in the forest. The generalization error for forests converges a.s. to a limit as the number of trees in the fo ..."

Internal estimates monitor error, strength, and correlation and these are used to show the response to increasing the number of features used in the splitting
Some informational aspects of visual perception
- Psychol. Rev
, 1954
"... The ideas of information theory are at present stimulating many different areas of psychological inquiry. In providing techniques for quantifying situations which have hitherto been difficult or impossible to quantify, they suggest new and more precise ways of conceptualizing these situations (see M ..."

HOMOGENIZATION AND TWO-SCALE CONVERGENCE
, 1992
"... Following an idea of G. Nguetseng, the author defines a notion of "two-scale" convergence, which is aimed at a better description of sequences of oscillating functions. Bounded sequences in L2(f) are proven to be relatively compact with respect to this new type of convergence. A corrector- ..."

On µ-kernel construction
- Symposium on Operating System Principles
, 1995
"... From a software-technology point of view, the-kernel concept is superior to large integrated kernels. On the other hand, it is widely believed that (a)-kernel based systems are inherently inefficient and (b) they are not sufficiently flexible. Contradictory to this belief, we show and support by doc ..."

Meme-tracking and the Dynamics of the News Cycle
, 2009
"... Tracking new topics, ideas, and “memes” across the Web has been an issue of considerable interest. Recent work has developed methods for tracking topic shifts over long time scales, as well as abrupt spikes in the appearance of particular named entities. However, these approaches are less well suite ..."

TCP Westwood: Bandwidth estimation for enhanced transport over wireless links
, 2001
"... TCP Westwood (TCPW) is a sender-side modification of the TCP congestion window algorithm that improves upon the performance of TCP Reno in wired as well as wireless networks. The improvement is most significant in wireless networks with lossy links, since TCP Westwood relies on endto-end bandwidth e ..."

An important distinguishing feature of TCP Westwood with respect to previous wireless TCP “extensions” is that it does not require inspection and/or interception of TCP packets
The adaptive nature of human categorization
- Psychological Review
, 1991
"... A rational model of human categorization behavior is presented that assumes that categorization reflects the derivation of optimal estimates of the probability of unseen features of objects. A Bayesian analysis is performed of what optimal estimations would be if categories formed a disjoint partiti ..."

Region Covariance: A Fast Descriptor for Detection And Classification
