Street Stops and Broken Windows: Terry, Race, and Disorder in New York City
This article explores patterns of police ”stop and frisk” activity across New York City neighborhoods. While “Broken Windows” theory may account for higher stop and frisk activity for “quality of life” crimes, the authors suggest neighborhood characteristics like racial composition, poverty levels, and extent of social disorganization are strong predictors of raceand crime-specific stops. The a...
متن کاملRelying on Trust to Find Reliable Information
Information retrieved from open distributed systems can be of uncertain reliability and sifting through a large amount of data can be a complex procedure. In real life, we handle such problems through the social mechanisms of trust and word-of-mouth, or reputation. We propose a sociologically motivated trust and reputation model for the problem of reliable information retrieval and present an e...
متن کاملUnreasonable and ` ` Unreasonable ’ ’ in Quantum Mechanics ?
The particles of quantum mechanics (QM) are discrete undulatory entities which are described in terms of the complex state vectors of the theory in full agreement with experiment. The wave± particle paradox stems from the fact that undulation and discreteness are inconsistent within the classical theory which was historically the point of departure for the canonical foundation . The author desc...

It occurs when: (1) the ambiguity of the applicable legal standard prompts those it governs to behave overcautiously, so as to avoid the gray areas of liability; (2) th...
متن کاملMichael Terry
The first topic I would like to explore is probabilistic reasoning with Bayesian nets. I see that reasoning under situations of uncertainty is a very important area of AI, and it is apparent that these techniques are the standard approach for effectively modeling this uncertainty. I am particularly interested in learning how to model complex relationships between variables in spite of redundant...
