This document details several stylized facts about post-war US macroeconomic data. When evaluating dynamic economic models, it is always important to keep in mind the stylized facts we want those models to be able to reproduce. The data used in this document are publicly available. The NIPA data were downloaded from the St. Louis Fed FRED website. The employment and population data are from unp...

A case of malignant hyperthermia is reported in a child who subsequently is diagnosed as having King syndrome, a rare genetic disorder first described in 1960. Several unique features associated with this case make it clinically noteworthy. It is important to recognize the patient with King syndrome preoperatively, as King syndrome is a disorder universally linked with the development of malign...

One of the primary challenges to measuring the impact of antitrust policy on collusion is that the cartel population is unobservable; we observe only the population of discovered cartels. To address this challenge, a model of cartel creation and dissolution is developed to endogenously derive the populations of cartels and discovered cartels. It is then shown how one can infer the impact of ant...

We have obtained the power spectral description of the density and opacity fluctuations of the cold HI gas in the Galaxy towards Cas A, and Cygnus A. We have employed a method of deconvolution, based on CLEAN, to estimate the true power spectrum of optical depth of cold HI gas from the observed distribution, taking into account the finite extent of the background source and the incomplete sampl...

Understanding of the functioning of urban ecosystems cannot be achieved without the data collection and modeling developed by scientists working for federal, state, and local agencies, often in cooperation with university researchers. The project engages a broad range of partners. Local government agencies include the City of Phoenix (COP), Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG) and Arizona ...

We present intermediate resolution near-IR long-slit spectroscopic data for the nearby radio galaxy Cygnus A (3C 405) (obtained with the NIRSPEC spectrograph on the Keck II telescope). The data reveal considerable complexity in the near-IR emission line kinematics, including line splittings of 200-350 km s and a mixture of narrow (FWHM ∼200 km s) and broad (FWHM ∼700 km s) components to the emi...

We propose a new approach to 3D object segmentation and description. Beginning with multiview range images of a 3D object, we segment the object into parts at deep surface concavities. Motivated by physics, we detect these concavities by locating surface points where the simulated electrical charge density achieves a local minimum. The individual parts are then described by parametric geons. Th...

To some extent the utility of a diagram depends on how effectively the information can be perceived. We have applied the structural object recognition theory of Biederman to the problem of constructing node-link diagrams. According to geon theory, as objects are perceived they are decomposed into 3D primitives called geons, together with the skeleton structure connecting them. This work evaluat...
