Phase-correlation (PC) is a computationally efficient scheme for estimating 2-D and 3-D translations. We present a masking operator that significantly improves the accuracy and robustness of the PC scheme. The masking projects the estimated correlation function on the space of correlation functions that result from a certain range of translations, while rejecting components that are unrelated t...

This paper announces support in the form of the Spearman rank correlation test for the hypothesis: stock variance is a stable commodity, but the covariance of stocks varies randomly. Among the consequences of this hypothesis are: 1. Arbitrage equations involving covariances do not constrain the marketplace. 2. Variance is a stable commodity whose price is set by the arbitrage opportunities it p...

I propose a non-Humean theory of causation with “tendencies” as causal connections. Not, however, as “necessary connexions”: causes are not sufficient, they do not necessitate their effects. The theory is designed to be, not an analysis of the concept of causation, but a description of what is the case in typical cases of causation. I therefore call it a metaphysical theory of causation, as opp...

The previous chapters in this volume have considered the advances in laser light scattering theory and methodology followed by specific applications to systems of biological macromolecules. In this first chapter on "large" macromolecular assemblies we wili survey some of the many recent applications of laser light scattering to problems in microbiology and focus on some of the work that we have...

where F (x) = t(F (x), x1, . . . , xd−1) for x = (x1, x2, . . . , xd). Assuming Y t ∈ Ω for closed Ω ⊆ R and also assuming the ergodicity of {Y t}, we formulate the system as (Ω,F , μ,F ), where F is the completion of the Borel σ-field with respect to μ, and μ is an invariant measure, i.e. μ(F−1A) = μ(A) for A ∈ F . See Carlsson (2002) for a description of the sufficient conditions for the exis...
