Hierarchically Classifying Documents Using Very Few Words
, 1997
"... The proliferation of topic hierarchies for text documents has resulted in a need for tools that automatically classify new documents within such hierarchies. Existing classification schemes which ignore the hierarchical structure and treat the topics as separate classes are often inadequate in text ..."

Good Error-Correcting Codes based on Very Sparse Matrices
, 1999
"... We study two families of error-correcting codes defined in terms of very sparse matrices. "MN" (MacKay--Neal) codes are recently invented, and "Gallager codes" were first investigated in 1962, but appear to have been largely forgotten, in spite of their excellent properties. The ..."

. The decoding of both codes can be tackled with a practical sum-product algorithm. We prove that these codes are "very good," in that sequences of codes exist which, when optimally decoded, achieve information rates up to the Shannon limit. This result holds not only for the binary-symmetric channel
GPS-Less Low Cost Outdoor Localization for Very Small Devices.
- IEEE Personal Communications Magazine,
, 2000
"... Abstract-Instrumenting the physical world through large networks of wireless sensor nodes, particularly for applications like environmental monitoring of water and soil, requires that these nodes be very small, light, untethered and unobtrusive. The problem of localization, i.e., determining where ..."

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 ..."

drawers back at the lab are filled with the 95 % of the studies that show nonsignificant (e.g., p>.05) results. In the past there was very little one could do to assess the net effect of studies, tucked away in file drawers, that did not make the magic.05 level (Rosenthal & Gaito, 1963, 1964). Now
Dynamic Conditional Correlation: A simple class of multivariate Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity Models.
- Journal of Business & Economic Statistics
, 2002
"... Abstract Time varying correlations are often estimated with Multivariate Garch models that are linear in squares and cross products of the data. A new class of multivariate models called dynamic conditional correlation (DCC) models is proposed. These have the flexibility of univariate GARCH models ..."

coupled with parsimonious parametric models for the correlations. They are not linear but can often be estimated very simply with univariate or two step methods based on the likelihood function. It is shown that they perform well in a variety of situations and provide sensible empirical results.
Planning as satisfiability
- IN ECAI-92
, 1992
"... We develop a formal model of planning based on satisfiability rather than deduction. The satis ability approach not only provides a more flexible framework for stating di erent kinds of constraints on plans, but also more accurately reflects the theory behind modern constraint-based planning systems ..."

USER’S GUIDE TO VISCOSITY SOLUTIONS OF SECOND ORDER PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

Implications of rational inattention
- JOURNAL OF MONETARY ECONOMICS
, 2002
"... A constraint that actions can depend on observations only through a communication channel with finite Shannon capacity is shown to be able to play a role very similar to that of a signal extraction problem or an adjustment cost in standard control problems. The resulting theory looks enough like fa ..."

Worst-case equilibria
- IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 16TH ANNUAL SYMPOSIUM ON THEORETICAL ASPECTS OF COMPUTER SCIENCE
, 1999
"... In a system in which noncooperative agents share a common resource, we propose the ratio between the worst possible Nash equilibrium and the social optimum as a measure of the effectiveness of the system. Deriving upper and lower bounds for this ratio in a model in which several agents share a ver ..."

Exact Matrix Completion via Convex Optimization
, 2008
"... We consider a problem of considerable practical interest: the recovery of a data matrix from a sampling of its entries. Suppose that we observe m entries selected uniformly at random from a matrix M. Can we complete the matrix and recover the entries that we have not seen? We show that one can perfe ..."
