Imagenet: A large-scale hierarchical image database
- In CVPR
, 2009
"... The explosion of image data on the Internet has the potential to foster more sophisticated and robust models and algorithms to index, retrieve, organize and interact with images and multimedia data. But exactly how such data can be harnessed and organized remains a critical problem. We introduce her ..."

here a new database called “ImageNet”, a largescale ontology of images built upon the backbone of the WordNet structure. ImageNet aims to populate the majority of the 80,000 synsets of WordNet with an average of 500-1000 clean and full resolution images. This will result in tens of millions
Illusion and well-being: A social psychological perspective on mental health.
- Psychological Bulletin,
, 1988
"... Many prominent theorists have argued that accurate perceptions of the self, the world, and the future are essential for mental health. Yet considerable research evidence suggests that overly positive selfevaluations, exaggerated perceptions of control or mastery, and unrealistic optimism are charac ..."

Global burden of cardiovascular diseases: part I: general considerations, the epidemiologic transition, risk factors, and impact of urbanization. Circulation
"... Abstract—This two-part article provides an overview of the global burden of atherothrombotic cardiovascular disease. Part I initially discusses the epidemiologic transition which has resulted in a decrease in deaths in childhood due to infections, with a concomitant increase in cardiovascular and ot ..."

;104:2746-2753.) Key Words: heart diseases epidemiology prevention For most populations, the last century has witnessed themost dramatic improvements in health in history. Life expectancy at birth has increased from a global average of 46 years in 1950 to 66 years in 1998.1 The health status and disease profile
Robust Positioning Algorithms for Distributed Ad-Hoc Wireless Sensor Networks
, 2002
"... A distributed algorithm for determining the positions of nodes in an ad-hoc, wireless sensor network is explained in detail. Details regarding the implementation of such an algorithm are also discussed. Experimentation is performed on networks containing 400 nodes randomly placed within a square are ..."

area, and resulting error magnitudes are represented as percentages of each node's radio range. In scenarios with 5% errors in distance measurements, 5% anchor node population (nodes with known locations), and average connectivity levels between neighbors of 7 nodes, the algorithm is shown to have
Genetic Algorithms, Noise, and the Sizing of Populations
- COMPLEX SYSTEMS
, 1991
"... This paper considers the effect of stochasticity on the quality of convergence of genetic algorithms (GAs). In many problems, the variance of building-block fitness or so-called collateral noise is the major source of variance, and a population-sizing equation is derived to ensure that average sig ..."

Linear Regression Limit Theory for Nonstationary Panel Data
- ECONOMETRICA
, 1999
"... This paper develops a regression limit theory for nonstationary panel data with large numbers of cross section Ž n. and time series Ž T. observations. The limit theory allows for both sequential limits, wherein T� � followed by n��, and joint limits where T, n�� simultaneously; and the relationship ..."

3-D Sound for Virtual Reality and Multimedia
, 2000
"... This paper gives HRTF magnitude data in numerical form for 43 frequencies between 0.2---12 kHz, the average of 12 studies representing 100 different subjects. However, no phase data is included in the tables; group delay simulation would need to be included in order to account for ITD. In 3-D sound ..."

Developments in the Measurement of Subjective Well-Being

The idiosyncratic effects of recent, irrelevant events are likely to average out in representative population samples. Moreover, research finds that retrospective evaluations are relevant for some subsequent choices, so
Responses of monkey dopamine neurons to reward and conditioned stimuli during successive steps of learning a delayed response task
