Temperature-dependent growth and consumption of young-of-the-year sablefish Anoplopoma fimbria: Too hot, too cold or just right?

Not Too Hot, Not Too Cold: The Bundled-SVM is Just Right!

The Support Vector Machine (SVM) typically outperforms other algorithms on text classification problems, but requires training time roughly quadratic in the number of training documents. In contrast, linear time algorithms like Naive Bayes have lower performance, but can easily handle huge training sets. In this paper, we describe a technique that creates a continuum of classifiers between the ...

The Worldwide Spread of Noninvasive Ventilation; Too Much, Too Little or Just Right?

In the past 20 years, use of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has increased from rare to highly prevalent in many ICUs around the world. In a single 26-bed French ICU, NIV use for patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF) due to COPD and cardiogenic pulmonary edema (CPE) increased from 20% of ventilator starts in 1994 to nearly 90% in 2001, associated with reductions in health care acquired pn...

Is the travel time of private roads too short , too long , or just right ? †

We consider price and service-quality setting in oligopolistic markets for congestible services, applied to the case of private roads. Previous studies show that parallel competitors set a volume/capacity ratio (and thereby a travel time or service quality) that is socially optimal if they take the actions of the others as given. We find that this result does not hold when capacity and toll set...
