Mobility depends essentially on investment, which often occurs in environments in which individuals match (school) or will match after investing (the labor market). Where partners can transfer surplus to each other only imperfectly (NTU), the pattern of matching will typically be inefficient, involving too much segregation, and provide a possible rationale for “associational redistribution” suc...

The possibility of discerning extensive air showers initiated by ultra-high energy (UHE) photons from those induced by hadrons is studied. Two effects characteristic only for UHE photons are taken into account: LPM effect and photon conversion/cascading in the geomagnetic field. First conclusions about the possibility of identification of photons in the UHE cosmic-ray spectrum are presented and...

We focus on the problem of linking event mentions in cricket match reports to instances from temporal commentary data. The problem is challenging because depending on the event type, event mentions could be linked to a single data instance, or to a set of instances. The complexity of the natural language in the reports along with a lack of canonical names or verbose descriptions of the data ins...

In this paper we present a robust and efficient method to overcome the negative effects of occlusion in the tracking process of multiple agents. The proposed approach is based on the matching of multiple trajectories from multiple views using spatial and temporal information. These trajectories are represented as consecutive points of a joint ground plane in the world coordinate system that bel...

In this paper, we try to predict the winning team of a match in the multiplayer eSports game Dota 2. To address the weaknesses of previous work, we consider more aspects of prior (pre-match) features from individual players’ match history, as well as real-time (during-match) features at each minute as the match progresses. We use logistic regression, the proposed Attribute Sequence Model, and t...
