Theory versus Data: How to Calculate R0?
To predict the potential severity of outbreaks of infectious diseases such as SARS, HIV, TB and smallpox, a summary parameter, the basic reproduction number R(0), is generally calculated from a population-level model. R(0) specifies the average number of secondary infections caused by one infected individual during his/her entire infectious period at the start of an outbreak. R(0) is used to as...
متن کاملO N How to Calculate Permanent Income
Some recent studies on the Permanent Incomes Hypothesis (PIH) seem to view permanent income as some sort of a moving average of measured inc0me.l It is our contention that this approach is essentially misleading. There are at least three reasons for this contention. First, there appears to be some misunderstanding about the meaning of "horizon" on the part of some authors using the moving avera...
متن کاملHow to Calculate the Information Privacy
This paper introduces a new theoretical formalism to specify private information. It utilizes single-referent linguistic assertions in defining ‘private information’ in terms of ‘atomicity’ and identification. Atomicity refers to the private information of a single person, in contrast to referring to compound information (e.g., X and Y are in love). Compound private information is shown to be r...

متن کاملHow to calculate colourful cross sections efficiently
Different methods for the calculation of cross sections with many QCD particles are compared. To this end, CSW vertex rules, Berends-Giele recursion and Feynman-diagram based techniques are implemented as well as various methods for the treatment of colours and phase space integration. We find that typically there is only a small window of jet multiplicities, where the CSW technique has efficie...
