Intensional Polymorphism in Type-Erasure Semantics
, 2002
"... Intensional polymorphism, the ability to dispatch to di#erent routines based on types at run time, enables a variety of advanced implementation techniques for polymorphic languages, including tag-free garbage collection, unboxed function arguments, polymorphic marshalling, and flattened data structu ..."

structures. To date, languages that support intensional polymorphism have required a type-passing (as opposed to type-erasure) interpretation where types are constructed and passed to polymorphic functions at run time. Unfortunately, type-passing su#ers from a number of drawbacks: it requires duplication

Sparse Principal Component Analysis
- Journal of Computational and Graphical Statistics
, 2004
"... Principal component analysis (PCA) is widely used in data processing and dimensionality reduction. However, PCA su#ers from the fact that each principal component is a linear combination of all the original variables, thus it is often di#cult to interpret the results. We introduce a new method ca ..."

Exploiting hardware performance counters with flow and context sensitive profiling
- ACM Sigplan Notices
, 1997
"... A program pro le attributes run-time costs to portions of a program's execution. Most pro ling systems su er from two major de ciencies: rst, they only apportion simple metrics, such as execution frequency or elapsed time to static, syntactic units, such as procedures or statements; second, the ..."

Structural Models of Corporate Bond Pricing: An Empirical Analysis
, 2003
"... This paper empirically tests five structural models of corporate bond pricing: those of Merton (1974), Geske (1977), Leland and Toft (1996), Longsta# and Schwartz (1995), and Collin-Dufresne and Goldstein (2001). We implement the models using a sample of 182 bond prices from firms with simple capita ..."

structural models predict spreads that are too high on average. Nevertheless, accuracy is a problem, as the newer models tend to severely overstate the credit risk of firms with high leverage or volatility and yet su#er from a spread underprediction problem with safer bonds. The Leland and Toft model
Approximate String Joins in a Database (Almost) for Free - Erratum

"... case the result returned by the Figure 1 query is incomplete and su#ers from "false negatives," in contrast to our claim to the contrary in [GIJ 01b]. In general, the string pairs that are omitted are pairs of short strings. Even when these strings match within small edit distance, t ..."

Bias plus variance decomposition for zero-one loss functions
- In Machine Learning: Proceedings of the Thirteenth International Conference
, 1996
"... We present a bias-variance decomposition of expected misclassi cation rate, the most commonly used loss function in supervised classi cation learning. The bias-variance decomposition for quadratic loss functions is well known and serves as an important tool for analyzing learning algorithms, yet no ..."

no decomposition was o ered for the more commonly used zero-one (misclassi cation) loss functions until the recent work of Kong & Dietterich (1995) and Breiman (1996). Their decomposition su ers from some major shortcomings though (e.g., potentially negative variance), which our decomposition avoids. We show
CPAR: Classification based on Predictive Association Rules
, 2003

Recent studies in data mining have proposed a new classification approach, called associative classification, which, according to several reports, such as [7, 6], achieves higher classification accuracy than traditional classification approaches such as C4.5. However, the approach also su#ers from t ..."
