The irreducibility of the space of curves of given genus
- Publ. Math. IHES
, 1969
"... Fix an algebraically closed field k. Let Mg be the moduli space of curves of genus g over k. The main result of this note is that Mg is irreducible for every k. Of course, whether or not M s is irreducible depends only on the characteristic of k. When the characteristic s o, we can assume that k ~- ..."

~- (1, and then the result is classical. A simple proof appears in Enriques-Chisini [E, vol. 3, chap. 3], based on analyzing the totality of coverings of p1 of degree n, with a fixed number d of ordinary branch points. This method has been extended to char. p by William Fulton [F], using specializations
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 ..."

A touching sight: SII/PV activation during the observation and experience of touch. Neuron 42(22
, 2004
"... Watching the movie scene in which a tarantula crawls on James Bond’s chest can make us literally shiver—as if the spider crawled on our own chest. What neural mechanisms are responsible for this “tactile empathy”? The observation of the actions of others acti-vates the premotor cortex normally invol ..."

involved in the execution of the same actions. If a similar mechanism applies to the sight of touch, movies depicting touch should automatically activate the somatosensory cor-tex of the observer. Here we found using fMRI that the secondary but not the primary somatosensory cortex is activated both when
The use of eye movements in human-computer interaction techniques: What you look at is what you get
- ACM Transactions on Information Systems
, 1991
"... In seeking hitherto-unused methods by which users and computers can comrnumcate, we investigate the usefulness of eye movements as a fast and convenient auxiliary user-to-computer communication mode. The barrier to exploiting this medium has not been eye-tracking tech-nology but the study of interac ..."

Runahead execution: An alternative to very large instruction windows for out-of-order processors
- In HPCA-9
, 2003
"... Today’s high performance processors tolerate long latency operations by means of out-of-order execution. However, as latencies increase, the size of the instruction window must increase even faster if we are to continue to tolerate these latencies. We have already reached the point where the size of ..."

of an instruction window that can handle these latencies is prohibitively large, in terms of both design complexity and power consumption. And, the problem is getting worse. This paper proposes runahead execution as an effective way to increase memory latency tolerance in an out-of-order processor, without
Self-determination and persistence in a real-life setting: Toward a motivational model of high school dropout.
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,
, 1997
"... The purpose of this study was to propose and test a motivational model of high school dropout. The model posits that teachers, parents, and the school administration's behaviors toward students influence students' perceptions of competence and autonomy. The less autonomy supportive the so ..."

Coding for Computing
- IEEE Transactions on Information Theory
, 1998
"... A sender communicates with a receiver who wishes to reliably evaluate a function of their combined data. We show that if only the sender can transmit, the number of bits required is a conditional entropy of a naturally defined graph. We also determine the number of bits needed when the communicators ..."

the communicators exchange two messages. 1 Introduction Let f be a function of two random variables X and Y . A sender PX knows X, a receiver PY knows Y , and both want PY to reliably determine f(X; Y ). How many bits must PX transmit?

Continuity and discontinuity of behavioral inhibition and exuberance: Psychophysiological and behavioral influences across the first four years of life.

"... Abstract: Four-month-old infants were screened (N = 433) for temperamental patterns thought to predict behavioral inhibition, including motor reactivity and the expression of negative affect. Those selected (N = 153) were assessed at multiple age points across the first 4 years of life for behavior ..."

of the six active sites on the cap (F3, F4, P3, P4, O1, and O2) as well as the reference site at the vertex (CZ). Using the blunt end of a Q-tip, each site was gently abraded. Following abrasion, a small amount of electrolyte gel was inserted in each site. The blunt end of a Q-tip was again used to ensure

The network society is the social structure characteristic of the Information Age, as tentatively identi ed by empirical, cross-cultural investigation.
