Panel Cointegration; Asymptotic and Finite Sample Properties of Pooled Time Series Tests, With an Application to the PPP Hypothesis; New Results. Working paper

by Peter Pedroni , 1997
"... We examine properties of residual-based tests for the null of no cointegration for dynamic panels in which both the short-run dynamics and the long-run slope coefficients are permitted to be heterogeneous across individual members of the panel+ The tests also allow for individual heterogeneous fixed ..."

fixed effects and trend terms, and we consider both pooled within dimension tests and group mean between dimension tests+ We derive limiting distributions for these and show that they are normal and free of nuisance parameters+ We also provide Monte Carlo evidence to demonstrate their small sample size

Incorporating non-local information into information extraction systems by Gibbs sampling

by Jenny Rose Finkel, Trond Grenager, Christopher Manning - IN ACL , 2005
"... Most current statistical natural language processing models use only local features so as to permit dynamic programming in inference, but this makes them unable to fully account for the long distance structure that is prevalent in language use. We show how to solve this dilemma with Gibbs sampling, ..."

The file drawer problem and tolerance for null results

by Robert Rosenthal - 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 ..."

% of the studies that show non-significant results. Quantitative procedures for computing the tolerance for filed and future null results are reported and illustrated, and the implications are discussed. Both behavioral researchers and statisti-cians have long suspected that the studies published in the behavioral

Sampling Large Databases for Association Rules

by Hannu Toivonen , 1996
"... Discovery of association rules is an important database mining problem. Current algorithms for nding association rules require several passes over the analyzed database, and obviously the role of I/O overhead is very signi cant for very large databases. We present new algorithms that reduce the data ..."

the database activity considerably. Theidea is to pick a random sample, to ndusingthis sample all association rules that probably hold in the whole database, and then to verify the results with the restofthe database. The algorithms thus produce exact association rules, not approximations based on a sample

Support Vector Machine Classification and Validation of Cancer Tissue Samples Using Microarray Expression Data

by Terrence S. Furey, Nello Cristianini, Nigel Duffy, David W. Bednarski, Michèl Schummer, David Haussler , 2000
"... Motivation: DNA microarray experiments generating thousands of gene expression measurements, are being used to gather information from tissue and cell samples regarding gene expression differences that will be useful in diagnosing disease. We have developed a new method to analyse this kind of data ..."

using support vector machines (SVMs). This analysis consists of both classification of the tissue samples, and an exploration of the data for mis-labeled or questionable tissue results. Results: We demonstrate the method in detail on samples consisting of ovarian cancer tissues, normal ovarian tissues

Feature selection: Evaluation, application, and small sample performance

by Anil Jain, Douglas Zongker - IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence , 1997
"... Abstract—A large number of algorithms have been proposed for feature subset selection. Our experimental results show that the sequential forward floating selection (SFFS) algorithm, proposed by Pudil et al., dominates the other algorithms tested. We study the problem of choosing an optimal feature s ..."

Footprint evaluation for volume rendering

by Lee Westover - Computer Graphics , 1990
"... This paper presents a forward mapping rendering algo-rithm to display regular volumetric grids that may not have the same spacings in the three grid directions. It takes advantage of the fact that convolution can be thought of as distributing energy from input samples into space. The renderer calcul ..."
Abstract - Cited by 501 (1 self) - Add to MetaCart
calculates an image plane footprint for each data sample and uses the footprint to spread the sample's energy onto the image plane. A result of the technique is that the forward mapping algorithm can support perspective without excessive cost, and support adaptive resampling of the three

Critical values for cointegration tests

by James G. Mackinnon, James G. Mackinnon - Eds.), Long-Run Economic Relationship: Readings in Cointegration , 1991
"... This paper provides tables of critical values for some popular tests of cointegration and unit roots. Although these tables are necessarily based on computer simulations, they are much more accurate than those previously available. The results of the simulation experiments are summarized by means of ..."

Robust Monte Carlo Localization for Mobile Robots

by Sebastian Thrun, Dieter Fox, Wolfram Burgard, Frank Dellaert , 2001
"... Mobile robot localization is the problem of determining a robot's pose from sensor data. This article presents a family of probabilistic localization algorithms known as Monte Carlo Localization (MCL). MCL algorithms represent a robot's belief by a set of weighted hypotheses (samples), whi ..."

to mobile robots equipped with range finders, a kernel density tree is learned that permits fast sampling. Systematic empirical results illustrate the robustness and computational efficiency of the approach.

Rendering of Surfaces from Volume Data

by Marc Levoy - IEEE COMPUTER GRAPHICS AND APPLICATIONS , 1988
"... The application of volume rendering techniques to the display of surfaces from sampled scalar functions of three spatial dimensions is explored. Fitting of geometric primitives to the sampled data is not required. Images are formed by directly shading each sample and projecting it onto the picture ..."
