Consider a sum of exponentials in dimensions, and let be the number of equispaced samples taken along the th dimension. It is shown that if the frequencies or decays along every dimension are distinct and O PRQ SUT , then the parameterization in terms of frequencies, decays, amplitudes, and phases is unique. The result can be viewed as generalizing a classic result of Carathéodory to dimensions...

A new method for estimating age-related centile curves has been developed, which is suitable for measurement covering a wide age range. The method was used to calculate weight centile curves of 8995 children from birth to 6 years obtained by the Collaborating Centre for Physical Growth and Psychosocial Development of Children in Shanghai, China.

In his contribution to this volume, Shaun Gallagher casts a sharply focussed critical eye over positions which claim that action is to be explained, in part, by appeal to minimal representations. One of the positions to come under fire in this way is a view that I developed in my book Reconstructing the Cognitive World (Wheeler, 2005). In this brief response I shall try to defend my own brand o...

We give a stack-theoretic proof for some results on families of hyperelliptic curves.

Though postawakening cortisol is considered to be altered under chronic stress prospective studies proving this assumption is missing, so far. Furthermore, there is some uncertainty which aspects of postawakening cortisol alterations are strongest related to stress. The present study thus analyzed the cortisol concentration at awakening itself (0 min), the cortisol awakening response (CAR; i.e....

This paper reports a study that evaluated a methodology and tool for eliciting the emotional experience of language learning. It has looked at the relative rate of change of different emotions over the course of a lesson and also the differences between self-report and observer reports of changes in emotion. Implications for the design of affectively intelligent systems are discussed.
