(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-08)Motivated by the recent emergence of large online social networks, we seek to understand the effects the underlying social network (graph) structure and the information dynamics have on the creation of influence of an ...
-
(Copernicus GmbH, 2012-10)We use regional air quality modeling to evaluate the impact of model resolution on uncertainty associated with the human health benefits resulting from proposed air quality regulations. Using a regional photochemical model ...
-
(National Academy of Sciences, 2012-05)Diatoms are responsible for ∼40% of marine primary production and are key players in global carbon cycling. There is mounting evidence that diatom growth is influenced by cobalamin (vitamin B12) availability. This ...
-
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-04)A series of experiments was conducted to evaluate how contact pressure and surface roughness influence the heat flux conducted out of the skin or object during contact. Changes in skin temperature assist in identifying ...
-
(American Institute of Physics, 2009-06)The quantum-classical correspondence in the presence of dissipation is studied. The semiclassical expression for the linear response function of an anharmonic system is expressed in a series containing classical stability ...
-
(Wiley Blackwell, 2012-03)This paper investigates whether gubernatorial elections affect state governments’ accounting choices. We identify two accounts, the compensated absence liability account and the unfunded pension liability account, which ...
-
(American Physical Society (APS), 2011-09)We use a reaction–diffusion model to demonstrate that buried interfaces in polycrystalline composites simultaneously reduce both the concentrations and the fluxes of radiation-induced defects. The steady-state radiation-induced ...
-
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2010-12)The default mode network (DMN) refers to regional brain activity that is greater during rest periods than during attention-demanding tasks; many studies have reported DMN alterations in patient populations. It has also ...
-
(Public Library of Science, 2013-01)This study investigated a potential auditory illusion in duration perception induced by rhythmic temporal contexts. Listeners with or without musical training performed a duration discrimination task for a silent period ...
-
(American Institute of Physics, 2009-07)We present the results of a combined experimental and numerical investigation of the coalescence of a drop with a liquid reservoir of a miscible but distinct fluid. Particular attention is given to elucidating the influence ...
-
(Springer-Verlag, 2012-10)T cells orchestrate adaptive immune responses upon activation. T cell activation requires sufficiently strong binding of T cell receptors on their surface to short peptides derived from foreign proteins bound to protein ...
-
(American Meteorological Society, 2010-05)The incorporation of local temperature and salinity observations from the Rapid Climate Change–Meridional Overturning Circulation and Heatflux Array (RAPID–MOCHA), as well as the cable estimates of volume transport in the ...
-
(American Meteorological Society, 2010-08)Recent work on the global overturning circulation and its energetics assumes that processes caused by nonlinearities of the equation of state of seawater are negligible. Nonlinear processes such as cabbeling and thermobaricity ...
-
(American Economic Association, 2011-01)Informal payments are a frequently overlooked source of local public fi nance in developing countries. We use microdata from ten countries to establish stylized facts on the magnitude, form, and distributional implications ...
-
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2009-07)Synchronous neural activity occurs throughout the brain in association with normal and pathological brain functions. Despite theoretical work exploring how such neural coordination might facilitate neural computation and ...
-
(Public Library of Science, 2009-04)Recent studies of cellular networks have revealed modular organizations of genes and proteins. For example, in interactome networks, a module refers to a group of interacting proteins that form molecular complexes and/or ...
-
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-05)Information fusion aims at a synergistic exploitation of multiple information sources, to enable decision-making or to enhance its performance. The sources include sensors of various modalities and characteristics, as well ...
-
(Econometric Society, 2009-10)We solve for the equilibrium dynamics of information sharing in a large population. Each agent is endowed with signals regarding the likely outcome of a random variable of common concern. Individuals choose the effort with ...
-
(American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2010-04)This paper introduces the Information-rich Rapidly-exploring Random Tree (IRRT), an extension of the RRT algorithm that embeds information collection as predicted using Fisher Information Matrices. The primary contribution ...
-
(Cambridge University Press, 2011-04)In this paper, we identify jumps in U.S. Treasury-bond (T-bond) prices and investigate what causes such unexpected large price changes. In particular, we examine the relative importance of macroeconomic news announcements ...
