Risk, Return, and Equilibrium: Empirical Tests

This paper tests the relationship between average return and risk for New York Stock Exchange common stocks. The theoretical basis of the tests is the "two-parameter" portfolio ...

Minimap2: pairwise alignment for nucleotide sequences

Abstract Motivation Recent advances in sequencing technologies promise ultra-long reads of ∼100 kb in average, full-length mRNA or cDNA reads in high throughput and genomic cont...

Raman Spectrum of Graphene and Graphene Layers

Graphene is the two-dimensional building block for carbon allotropes of every other dimensionality. We show that its electronic structure is captured in its Raman spectrum that ...

All-Atom Empirical Potential for Molecular Modeling and Dynamics Studies of Proteins

New protein parameters are reported for the all-atom empirical energy function in the CHARMM program. The parameter evaluation was based on a self-consistent approach designed t...

An Integrative Model Of Organizational Trust

Scholars in various disciplines have considered the causes, nature, and effects of trust. Prior approaches to studying trust are considered, including characteristics of the tru...

Bayesian Data Analysis

I actually own a copy of Harold Jeffreys’s Theory of Probability but have only read small bits of it, most recently over a decade ago to confirm that, indeed, Jeffreys was not t...

The Timed “Up & Go”: A Test of Basic Functional Mobility for Frail Elderly Persons

This study evaluated a modified, timed version of the “Get‐Up and Go” Test (Mathias et al, 1986) in 60 patients referred to a Geriatric Day Hospital (mean age 79.5 years). The p...

Limited-dependent and qualitative variables in econometrics

This book presents the econometric analysis of single-equation and simultaneous-equation models in which the jointly dependent variables can be continuous, categorical, or trunc...

"Why Should I Trust You?"

Despite widespread adoption, machine learning models remain mostly black boxes. Understanding the reasons behind predictions is, however, quite important in assessing trust, whi...

Superior Thermal Conductivity of Single-Layer Graphene

We report the measurement of the thermal conductivity of a suspended single-layer graphene. The room temperature values of the thermal conductivity in the range approximately (4...

APACHE II

This paper presents the form and validation results of APACHE II, a severity of disease classification system. APACHE II uses a point score based upon initial values of 12 routi...
