A case study of open source software development: the Apache server
- In: Proceedings of the 22nd International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE 2000
, 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 ..."

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 ..."

to converge if none of the beliefs in successive iterations changed by more than a small threshold (10-4). All messages were initialized to a vector of ones; random initializa tion yielded similar results, since the initial conditions rapidly get "washed out" . For comparison, we also implemented
The earth is round (p < .05
- American Psychologist
, 1994
"... After 4 decades of severe criticism, the ritual of null hypothesis significance testing—mechanical dichotomous decisions around a sacred.05 criterion—still persists. This article reviews the problems with this practice, including its near-universal misinterpretation ofp as the probability that Ho is ..."

Analysis of fMRI Data by Blind Separation Into Independent Spatial Components
- HUMAN BRAIN MAPPING 6:160–188(1998)
, 1998
"... Current analytical techniques applied to functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data require a priori knowledge or specific assumptions about the time courses of processes contributing to the measured signals. Here we describe a new method for analyzing fMRI data based on the independent comp ..."

component analysis (ICA) algorithm of Bell and Sejnowski ([1995]: Neural Comput 7:1129–1159). We decomposed eight fMRI data sets from 4 normal subjects performing Stroop color-naming, the Brown and Peterson word/number task, and control tasks into spatially independent components. Each component consisted
Integrated coverage and connectivity configuration in wireless sensor networks
- In SenSys ’03: Proceedings of the 1st international
, 2003
"... An effective approach for energy conservation in wireless sensor networks is scheduling sleep intervals for extraneous nodes, while the remaining nodes stay active to provide continuous service. For the sensor network to operate successfully, the active nodes must maintain both sensing coverage and ..."

Arithmetic coding
- IBM J. Res. Develop
, 1979
"... Arithmetic coding is a data compression technique that encodes data (the data string) by creating a code string which represents a fractional value on the number line between 0 and 1. The coding algorithm is symbolwise recursive; i.e., it operates upon and encodes (decodes) one data symbol per itera ..."

Short-Term Retention of Individual Verbal Items
- Journal of Experimental Psychology
, 1959
"... It is apparent that the acquisition of verbal habits depends on the effects of a given occasion being carried over into later repetitions of the situation. Nevertheless, textbooks separate acquisition and retention into distinct categories. The limitation of discussions of retention to long-term cha ..."

-term characteristics is necessary in large part by the scarcity of data on the course of retention over intervals of the order of magnitude of the time elapsing between successive repetitions in an acquisition study. The presence of a retentive function within the acquisition process was postulated by Hull (1940
The TRMM Multi-satellite Precipitation Analysis: Quasi-Global, Multi-Year, Combined-Sensor Precipitation Estimates at Fine Scale
- J. Hydrometeor
, 2007
"... The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Multisatellite Precipitation Analysis (TMPA) pro-vides a calibration-based sequential scheme for combining precipitation estimates from multiple satellites, as well as gauge analyses where feasible, at fine scales (0.25 ° 0.25 ° and 3 hourly). TMPA is ..."

Microwave Sounding Unit-B (AMSU-B)]. At finer scales the TMPA is successful at approximately reproducing the surface observation–based histogram of precipitation, as well as reasonably detecting large daily events. The TMPA, however, has lower skill in correctly specifying moderate and light event amounts
Ripple Joins for Online Aggregation
"... We present a new family of join algorithms, called ripple joins, for online processing of multi-table aggregation queries in a relational database management system (dbms). Such queries arise naturally in interactive exploratory decision-support applications. Traditional offline join algorithms are ..."

Ripple joins also permit the user to dynamically trade off the two key performance factors of online aggregation: the time between successive updates of the running aggregate, and the amount by which the confidence-interval length
Operant Control of Alpha EEG and the Effects of Illumination and Eye Closure. Psychosomatic Medicine
"... The effects of eyelid position (open or closed) and three levels of room illumination on operant control of alpha EEG were investigated utilizing a factorial design. After base-line levels were determined, subjects were given alpha-contingent feedback and instructed to increase and decrease alpha pr ..."

The percent time data indicated that eyes-open training facilitated alpha enhancement and suppression. However, this was not supported by the average
