Economic Action and Social Structure: The Problem of Embeddedness
- American Journal of Sociology
, 1985
"... How behavior and institutions are affected by social relations is one of the classic questions of social theory. This paper concerns the extent to which economic action is embedded in structures of social relations, in modern industrial society. Although the usual neoclassical accounts provide an &q ..."

an "undersocialized " or atomized-actor explanation of such action, reformist economists who attempt to bring social structure back in do so in the "oversocialized " way criticized by Dennis Wrong. Under- and oversocialized accounts are paradoxically similar in their neglect of ongoing
Decision-Theoretic Planning: Structural Assumptions and Computational Leverage
- JOURNAL OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE RESEARCH
, 1999
"... Planning under uncertainty is a central problem in the study of automated sequential decision making, and has been addressed by researchers in many different fields, including AI planning, decision analysis, operations research, control theory and economics. While the assumptions and perspectives ..."

and perspectives adopted in these areas often differ in substantial ways, many planning problems of interest to researchers in these fields can be modeled as Markov decision processes (MDPs) and analyzed using the techniques of decision theory. This paper presents an overview and synthesis of MDP

JSTOR is a not-for-profit service that helps scholars, researchers, and students discover, use, and build upon a wide range of content in a trusted d ..."

of the factors traditionally mentioned as influencing the term structure are thus included in a way which is fully consistent with maximizing behavior and rational expectations. The model leads to specific formulas for bond prices which are well suited for empirical testing.
Fusion, Propagation, and Structuring in Belief Networks
- ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
, 1986
"... Belief networks are directed acyclic graphs in which the nodes represent propositions (or variables), the arcs signify direct dependencies between the linked propositions, and the strengths of these dependencies are quantified by conditional probabilities. A network of this sort can be used to repre ..."

with the task of fusing and propagating the impacts of new information through the networks in such a way that, when equilibrium is reached, each proposition will be assigned a measure of belief consistent with the axioms of probability theory. It is shown that if the network is singly connected (e.g. tree-structured
A semantics of multiple inheritance
- Information and Computation
, 1988
"... There are two major ways of structuring data in programming languages. The first and common one, used for example in Pascal, can be said to derive from standard branches of mathematics. Data is organized as cartesian products (i.e. record types), disjoint sums (i.e. unions or variant types) and func ..."

Electronic Markets and Electronic Hierarchies
- Communications of the ACM
, 1987
"... This paper analyzes the fundamental changes in market structures that may result from the increasing use of information technology. First, an analytic framework is presented and its usefulness is demonstrated in explaining several major historical changes in American business structures. Then, the f ..."

by markets rather than by internal decisions within firms. Finally, several examples of companies where these changes are already occurring are used to illustrate the likely paths by which new market structures will evolve and the ways in which individual companies can take advantage of these changes.
The English Noun Phrase in its Sentential Aspect

A learning algorithm for Boltzmann machines
- Cognitive Science
, 1985

Second, there must be some way of choosing internal representations which allow the preexisting hardware connections to be used efficiently for encoding the con-straints in the domain being searched. We describe a generol parallel search method, based on statistical mechanics, and we show how it leads
