Making the most of statistical analyses: Improving interpretation and presentation

by Gary King, Michael Tomz, Jason Wittenberg - American Journal of Political Science , 2000
"... Social scientists rarely take full advantage of the information available in their statistical results. As a consequence, they miss opportunities to present quantities that are of greatest substantive interest for their research and express the appropriate degree of certainty about these quantities. ..."

. In this article, we offer an approach, built on the technique of statistical simulation, to extract the currently overlooked information from any statistical method and to interpret and present it in a reader-friendly manner. Using this technique requires some expertise,

Home Bias at Home: Local Equity Preference in Domestic Portfolios

by Joshua D. Coval, Tobias J. Moskowitz - Journal of Finance , 1999
"... The strong bias in favor of domestic securities is a well-documented characteristic of international investment portfolios, yet we show that the preference for investing close to home also applies to portfolios of domestic stocks. Specifically, U.S. investment managers exhibit a strong preference fo ..."

Unrealistic optimism about future life events

by Neil D. Weinstein - Journal of Personality and Social Psychology , 1980
"... Two studies investigated the tendency of people to be unrealistically optimistic about future life events. In Study 1, 258 college students estimated how much their own chances of experiencing 42 events differed from the chances of their classmates. Overall, they rated their own chances to be above ..."

The Digital Michelangelo Project: 3D Scanning of Large Statues

by Marc Levoy, Szymon Rusinkiewicz, Brian Curless, Matt Ginzton, Jeremy Ginsberg, Kari Pulli, David Koller, Sean Anderson, Jonathan Shade, Lucas Pereira, James Davis, Duane Fulk , 2000
"... We describe a hardware and software system for digitizing the shape and color of large fragile objects under non-laboratory conditions. Our system employs laser triangulation rangefinders, laser time-of-flight rangefinders, digital still cameras, and a suite of software for acquiring, aligning, merg ..."

We describe a hardware and software system for digitizing the shape and color of large fragile objects under non-laboratory conditions. Our system employs laser triangulation rangefinders, laser time-of-flight rangefinders, digital still cameras, and a suite of software for acquiring, aligning, merging, and viewing scanned data. As a demonstration of this system, we digitized 10 statues by Michelangelo, including the well-known figure of David, two building interiors, and all 1,163 extant fragments of the Forma Urbis Romae, a giant marble map of ancient Rome. Our largest single dataset is of the David - 2 billion polygons and 7,000 color images. In this paper, we discuss the challenges we faced in building this system, the solutions we employed, and the lessons we learned. We focus in particular on the unusual design of our laser triangulation scanner and on the algorithms and software we developed for handling very large scanned models.

Formalising trust as a computational concept

by Stephen Paul Marsh , 1994
"... Trust is a judgement of unquestionable utility — as humans we use it every day of our lives. However, trust has suffered from an imperfect understanding, a plethora of definitions, and informal use in the literature and in everyday life. It is common to say “I trust you, ” but what does that mean? T ..."

FAST VOLUME RENDERING USING A SHEAR-WARP FACTORIZATION OF THE VIEWING TRANSFORMATION

by Philippe G. Lacroute , 1995
"... Volume rendering is a technique for visualizing 3D arrays of sampled data. It has applications in areas such as medical imaging and scientific visualization, but its use has been limited by its high computational expense. Early implementations of volume rendering used brute-force techniques that req ..."

Do investment-cash flow sensitivities provide useful measures of financing constraints?

by Steven N. Kaplan, Luigi Zingales - QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF ECONOMICS , 1997

MEGA5: Molecular evolutionary genetics analysis using maximum . . .

by Koichiro Tamura, Daniel Peterson, Nicholas Peterson, Glen Stecher, Masatoshi Nei, Sudhir Kumar , 2011
"... Comparative analysis of molecular sequence data is essential for reconstructing the evolutionary histories of species and inferring the nature and extent of selective forces shaping the evolution of genes and species. Here, we announce the release of Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis version ..."

The MEGA user interface has now been enhanced to be activity driven to make it easier for the use of both beginners

Hierarchically Classifying Documents Using Very Few Words

by Daphne Koller, Mehran Sahami , 1997
"... The proliferation of topic hierarchies for text documents has resulted in a need for tools that automatically classify new documents within such hierarchies. Existing classification schemes which ignore the hierarchical structure and treat the topics as separate classes are often inadequate in text ..."
