Motivated by the works of Ngo and Du [H. Ngo, D. Du, A survey on combinatorial group testing algorithms with applications to DNA library screening, DIMACS Series in Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science 55 (2000) 171–182], the notion of pooling spaces was introduced [T. Huang, C. Weng, Pooling spaces and non-adaptive pooling designs, Discrete Mathematics 282 (2004) 163–169] for ...

MOTIVATION It has been claimed in the literature that pooling DNA samples is efficient in estimating haplotype frequencies. There is, however, no theoretical justification based on calculation of statistical efficiency. In fact, the limited evidence given so far is based on simulation studies with small numbers of loci. With rapid advance in technology, it is of interest to see if pooling is st...

Many modern visual recognition algorithms incorporate a step of spatial ‘pooling’, where the outputs of several nearby feature detectors are combined into a local or global ‘bag of features’, in a way that preserves task-related information while removing irrelevant details. Pooling is used to achieve invariance to image transformations, more compact representations, and better robustness to no...

Genome-wide association studies may be necessary to identify genes underlying certain complex diseases. Because such studies can be extremely expensive, DNA pooling has been introduced, as it may greatly reduce the genotyping burden. Parallel to DNA pooling developments, the importance of haplotypes in genetic studies has been amply demonstrated in the literature. However, DNA pooling of a larg...

This paper investigates the effects of government spending in the Euro area where the fixed exchange rate regimes have been maintained. I employ the Bayesian pooling method which has been used to analyze the effect of monetary policy. By applying the Bayesian estimation procedure to the panel of VARs in the Euro area, I explore whether there exists heterogeneity in country dynamics or not, i.e....

We consider the classical problem of aggregating di¤erent individuals’probability assignments (opinions) over a -algebra of events. In practice, some events represent basic propositions, such as ‘it rains’or ‘CO2 emissions cause global warming’, while others represent combinations thereof, for instance disjunctions (unions) of basic events. It is plausible to treat the basic events as premises ...

From the early HMAX model to Spatial Pyramid Matching, spatial pooling has played an important role in visual recognition pipelines. By aggregating local statistics, it equips the recognition pipelines with a certain degree of robustness to translation and deformation yet preserving spatial information. Despite of its predominance in current recognition systems, we have seen little progress to ...
