Tempt me just a little bit more: The effect of prior food temptation actionablility on goal activation and consumption
- Journal of Consumer Research
, 2008
"... People are often exposed to actionable food temptations (i.e., an immediate op-portunity to consume, like when friends offer cookies) and nonactionable food temptations (i.e., no immediate consumption opportunity, like ads for chocolate). The results of three experiments suggest that prior exposure ..."

to nonactionable food temptations does not prevent the activation of an eating goal, given a subsequent consumption opportunity, while prior exposure to actionable food temptations pre-vents such activation. As a consequence, prior exposure to actionable food temp-tations enhances self-control on a current
Let Us Dance Just a Little Bit More — On the Information Capacity of the Human Motor System
"... Abstract—Fitts law is a fundamental tool in measuring the capacity of the human motor system. However, it is, by defi-nition, limited to aimed movements toward spatially expanded targets. We revisit its information-theoretic basis with the goal of generalizing it into unconstrained trained movement ..."

Just Relax: Convex Programming Methods for Identifying Sparse Signals in Noise
, 2006
"... This paper studies a difficult and fundamental problem that arises throughout electrical engineering, applied mathematics, and statistics. Suppose that one forms a short linear combination of elementary signals drawn from a large, fixed collection. Given an observation of the linear combination that ..."

On limits of wireless communications in a fading environment when using multiple antennas
- Wireless Personal Communications
, 1998
"... Abstract. This paper is motivated by the need for fundamental understanding of ultimate limits of bandwidth efficient delivery of higher bit-rates in digital wireless communications and to also begin to look into how these limits might be approached. We examine exploitation of multi-element array (M ..."

to the baseline n = 1 case, which by Shannon’s classical formula scales as one more bit/cycle for every 3 dB of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) increase, remarkably with MEAs, the scaling is almost like n more bits/cycle for each 3 dB increase in SNR. To illustrate how great this capacity is, even for small n, take
The relationship between return and market value of common stocks
- Journal of Financial Economics
, 1981
"... This study examines the empirical relattonship between the return and the total market value of NYSE common stocks. It is found that smaller firms have had htgher risk adjusted returns, on average, than larger lirms. This ‘size effect ’ has been in existence for at least forty years and is evidence ..."

A New Kind of Science
, 2002
"... “Somebody says, ‘You know, you people always say that space is continuous. How do you know when you get to a small enough dimension that there really are enough points in between, that it isn’t just a lot of dots separated by little distances? ’ Or they say, ‘You know those quantum mechanical amplit ..."

The capacity of wireless networks
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INFORMATION THEORY
, 2000
"... When n identical randomly located nodes, each capable of transmitting at bits per second and using a fixed range, form a wireless network, the throughput @ A obtainable by each node for a randomly chosen destination is 2 bits per second under a noninterference protocol. If the nodes are optimally p ..."

High performance scalable image compression with EBCOT
- IEEE Trans. Image Processing
, 2000
"... A new image compression algorithm is proposed, based on independent Embedded Block Coding with Optimized Truncation of the embedded bit-streams (EBCOT). The algorithm exhibits state-of-the-art compression performance while producing a bit-stream with a rich feature set, including resolution and SNR ..."

End-To-End Arguments In System Design
, 1984

The principle, called the end-to-end argument, suggests that functions placed at low levels of a system may be redundant or of little value when compared with the cost o ..."
