An iterative method for the solution of the eigenvalue problem of linear differential and integral

by Cornelius Lanczos , 1950
"... The present investigation designs a systematic method for finding the latent roots and the principal axes of a matrix, without reducing the order of the matrix. It is characterized by a wide field of applicability and great accuracy, since the accumulation of rounding errors is avoided, through the ..."

The FF planning system: Fast plan generation through heuristic search

by Jörg Hoffmann, Bernhard Nebel - Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research , 2001
"... We describe and evaluate the algorithmic techniques that are used in the FF planning system. Like the HSP system, FF relies on forward state space search, using a heuristic that estimates goal distances by ignoring delete lists. Unlike HSP's heuristic, our method does not assume facts to be ind ..."

to be independent. We introduce a novel search strategy that combines Hill-climbing with systematic search, and we show how other powerful heuristic information can be extracted and used to prune the search space. FF was the most successful automatic planner at the recent AIPS-2000 planning competition. We review

Comparison of Multiobjective Evolutionary Algorithms: Empirical Results

by Eckart Zitzler, Lothar Thiele, Kalyanmoy Deb , 2000
"... In this paper, we provide a systematic comparison of various evolutionary approaches to multiobjective optimization using six carefully chosen test functions. Each test function involves a particular feature that is known to cause difficulty in the evolutionary optimization process, mainly in conver ..."

Motivation through the Design of Work: Test of a Theory. Organizational Behavior and Human Performance,

by ] Richard Hackman , Grec R Oldham , 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 ..."

Illusion and well-being: A social psychological perspective on mental health.

by Shelley E Taylor , Jonathon D Brown , Nancy Cantor , Edward Emery , Susan Fiske , Tony Green-Wald , Connie Hammen , Darrin Lehman , Chuck Mcclintock , Dick Nisbett , Lee Ross , Bill Swann , Joanne - 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 ..."

, enduring, and systematic. Illusion is denned as a perception that represents what is perceived in a way different from the way it is in reality. An illusion is a false mental image or conception which may be a misinterpretation of a real appearance or may be something imagined. It may be pleasing, harmless

distribution function: a systematic investigation

by unknown authors , 2000
"... This paper is dedicated to Prof. Dr. Heinz Schulz on the occasion of his 65th birthday. Abstract. Many disordered crystalline materials show chemical short range order and relaxation of neighboring atoms. Local structural information can be obtained by analyzing the atomic pair distribution function ..."

The method has been applied to simulated PDFs of disordered structures showing chemical disorder alone as well as in combination

Part Two of a Systematic Investigation

"... ABSTRACT Using dealer's quotes and transactions prices on straight industrial bonds, we investigate the determinants of credit spread changes. Variables that should in theory determine credit spread changes have rather limited explanatory power. Further, the residuals from this regression are ..."
