The file drawer problem and tolerance for null results
- Psychological Bulletin
, 1979
"... For any given research area, one cannot tell how many studies have been con-ducted but never reported. The extreme view of the "file drawer problem " is that journals are filled with the 5 % of the studies that show Type I errors, while the file drawers are filled with the 95 % of the stud ..."

Finite-time analysis of the multiarmed bandit problem
- Machine Learning
, 2002
"... Abstract. Reinforcement learning policies face the exploration versus exploitation dilemma, i.e. the search for a balance between exploring the environment to find profitable actions while taking the empirically best action as often as possible. A popular measure of a policy’s success in addressing ..."

A Language Modeling Approach to Information Retrieval
, 1998
"... Models of document indexing and document retrieval have been extensively studied. The integration of these two classes of models has been the goal of several researchers but it is a very difficult problem. We argue that much of the reason for this is the lack of an adequate indexing model. This sugg ..."

Reducing Multiclass to Binary: A Unifying Approach for Margin Classifiers
- JOURNAL OF MACHINE LEARNING RESEARCH
, 2000
"... We present a unifying framework for studying the solution of multiclass categorization problems by reducing them to multiple binary problems that are then solved using a margin-based binary learning algorithm. The proposed framework unifies some of the most popular approaches in which each class ..."

given the empirical loss of the individual binary learning algorithms. The scheme and the corresponding bounds apply to many popular classification learning algorithms including support-vector machines, AdaBoost, regression, logistic regression and decision-tree algorithms. We also give a multiclass
A comparison of bayesian methods for haplotype reconstruction from population genotype data.
- Am J Hum Genet
, 2003
"... In this report, we compare and contrast three previously published Bayesian methods for inferring haplotypes from genotype data in a population sample. We review the methods, emphasizing the differences between them in terms of both the models ("priors") they use and the computational str ..."

Knowledge of the haplotypes carried by sampled individuals would be helpful in many settings, including linkage-disequilibrium mapping and inference of population evolutionary history, essentially because genetic inheritance
Ariadne: a secure on-demand routing protocol for ad hoc networks," in
- Proc. 8th ACM International Conf. Mobile Computing Networking ,
, 2002
"... Abstract An ad hoc network is a group of wireless mobile computers (or nodes), in which individual nodes cooperate by forwarding packets for each other to allow nodes to communicate beyond direct wireless transmission range. Prior research in ad hoc networking has generally studied the routing prob ..."

Motivation through the Design of Work: Test of a Theory. Organizational Behavior and Human Performance,
, 1976
"... A model is proposed that specifies the conditions under which individuals will become internally motivated to perform effectively on their jobs. The model focuses on the interaction among three classes of variables: (a) the psychological states of employees that must be present for internally motiv ..."

psychologists have for many years studied the antecedents and consequences of heightened and depressed levels of psychological and physiological activation in organisms While activation theory clearly has considerable relevance to both the theory and practice of job design, two thorny problems must be dealt
The faculty of language: what is it, who has it, and how did it evolve?
- Science,
, 2002
"... We argue that an understanding of the faculty of language requires substantial interdisciplinary cooperation. We suggest how current developments in linguistics can be profitably wedded to work in evolutionary biology, anthropology, psychology, and neuroscience. We submit that a distinction should ..."

In exploring the problem of language evolution, it is important to distinguish between questions concerning language as a communicative system and questions concerning the computations underlying this system, such as those underlying recursion. As we argue below, many

Trying to Explain Home Bias in Equities and Consumption
- Journal of Economic Literature
