Uncertain times for research on hemophilia and allied disorders

Suggestions on Chorea and Allied Nervous Disorders

investigation. The three diseases mentioned are usually classed together and under the beading of ? Diseases of the Nervous System." The present paper refers chiefly to cborea. A study of the literature of the disease, such as is possible in an isolated Indian station, modified by the observation of a choreic patient, has led to the following remarks. The patient under observation is a girl age...

Retinitis Pigmentosa and Allied Disorders

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a generic term for a group of disorders characterized by hereditary diffuse usually bilaterally symmetrical progressive dysfunction, cell loss and eventual atrophy of retina. Initially photoreceptors are involved and subsequently inner retina is damaged. Although both rods and cones are involved, damage to the rods is predominant. RP may be seen in isolation (Typica...

Trusted Browsers for Uncertain Times

JavaScript in one origin can use timing channels in browsers to learn sensitive information about a user’s interaction with other origins, violating the browser’s compartmentalization guarantees. Browser vendors have attempted to close timing channels by trying to rewrite sensitive code to run in constant time and by reducing the resolution of reference clocks. We argue that these ad-hoc effort...

Uncertain Observation Times

Standard temporal models assume that observation times are correct, whereas in many real-world settings (particularly those involving human data entry) noisy time stamps are quite common. Serious problems arise when these time stamps are taken literally. This paper introduces a modeling framework for handling uncertainty in observation times and describes inference algorithms that, under certai...
