Abstract Given the concerns about big tech’s hoarding of data, creation profiles, mining and extrapolation new knowledge from their data warehouses, there is a need interest in devising policies regulations that better shape tech's influence on people lives. One such proposal to create commons. In this paper, we examine idea commons as well concept sharing relation personal data. We argue are d...

objective: international diabetes organization estimates that there are 285 million people worldwide who suffer from diabetes, and this figure is expected to increase to 450 million in next 20 years. according to statistics issued by the world health organization, diabetes is considered among ten leading causes of death in world and its prevalence in the population is growing.this paper deals w...

The restructured electric power industry has brought new challenges and concerns for the secured operation of stressed power systems. As renewable energy resources, distributed generation, and demand response become significant portions of overall generation resource mix, smarter or more intelligent system dispatch technology is needed to cope with new categories of uncertainty associated with ...

We introduce a new interpretation of two re­ lated notions conditional utility and utility independence. Unlike the traditional inter­ pretation, the new interpretation render the notions the direct analogues of their prob­ abilistic counterparts. To capture these no­ tions formally, we appeal to the notion of util­ ity distribution, introduced in previous paper. We show that utility distributi...

We propose the group knockoff filter, a method for false discovery rate control in a linear regression setting where the features are grouped, and we would like to select a set of relevant groups which have a nonzero effect on the response. By considering the set of true and false discoveries at the group level, this method gains power relative to sparse regression methods. We also apply our me...

In this paper we consider the classical problem of dividing a land among many agents so that everybody is satisfied with the parcel she receives. In the literature, it is usually assumed that all the agents are endowed with cardinally comparable, additive, and monotone utility functions. In many economic and political situations violations of these assumptions may arise. We show how a family of...

This paper presents an efficient VLSI architecture design of MPEG-4 shape coding, which is the key technology for supporting the content-based functionality of the MPEG-4 Video standard. The real-time constraint of MPEG-4 shape coding leads to a heavy computational bottleneck on today’s computer architectures. To overcome this problem, design analysis and optimization of MPEG-4 shape coding are...

OBJECTIVE To describe strategies employed during handoffs in four settings with high consequences for failure. DESIGN ANALYSIS of observational data for evidence of use of 21 handoff strategies. SETTING NASA Johnson Space Center in Texas, nuclear power generation plants in Canada, a railroad dispatch center in the United States, and an ambulance dispatch center in Toronto. MAIN MEASURE...
