- Ultrasound Clinics: Sonographic Clues to M?llerian Anomalies
- The article shows that mullerian anomalies usually come to light in women of reproductive age who are being worked up for recurrent pregnancy loss. In rare situations, they are found in very young girls who present with either primary amenorrhea or pain. Most of the ultrasound pictures shown have line...

- Pipeline Safety: Inspection, Mapping & Visualization Methods
- The paper mentions that the pipeline industry has responded to the growing concern for public safety by developing a new family of in-pipe inspection tools called "PIGS" to measure and map geometric and material anomalies. From this data, numerous GIS map, profile, and pipe visualization views are constructed in a...

- Double Cervix and Vagina With Septate Uterus: An Uncommon Mullerian Malformation
- A 20-year-old nulligravid female was found to have a septate uterus with double cervix and a vagina with partial longitudinal vaginal septum. The anomaly presented symptomatically, was suggested by clinical examination, and confirmed by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and intra-operative visualization. Visualization of the anomaly was enhanced by MR-based three...

- Goals And Plans In Decision Making
- This paper proposes a constructed-choice model for general decision making. The model departs from utility theory and prospect theory in its treatment of multiple goals and it suggests several different ways in which context can affect choice. It is particularly instructive to apply this model to protective decisions, which are...

- Anomalies
- This paper constructs a neoclassical, Q-theoretical foundation for time-varying expected returns in connection with corporate policies and events. Under certain conditions, stock return equals investment return, which is directly tied with firm characteristics. This single equation is shown analytically to be qualitatively consistent with many anomalies, including the relations of...

- Helping Everyday Users Find Anomalies in Data Feeds
- The research presented here addresses the problem of identifying the anomalies in daily feeds, by providing CUES, Checking User Expectations about Semantics. CUES is a method and a prototype implementation for making user expectations precise and for checking these precise expectations. CUES treats the precise expectations as a proxy for...

- Anomalies and Market Efficiency
- Anomalies are empirical results that seem to be inconsistent with maintained theories of asset-pricing behavior. They indicate either market inefficiency (profit opportunities) or inadequacies in the underlying asset-pricing model. After they are documented and analyzed in the academic literature, anomalies often seem to disappear, reverse, or attenuate. This raises the...

- Market Implied Ratings
- This study looks at a market-based approach to classifying bonds, improving spread risk forecasts, and detecting rating anomalies. This study differs from most in the literature in two ways. First, it derives price-based equivalent ratings, rather than default probabilities based on firm fundamentals. For many practitioners in the credit area,...

- Market Efficiency, Long-Term Returns, and Behavioral Finance
- Market efficiency survives the challenge from the literature on long-term return anomalies. Consistent with the market efficiency hypothesis that the anomalies are chance results, apparent over-reaction to information is about as common as under-reaction. And post-event continuation of pre-event abnormal returns is about as frequent as post-event reversal. Consistent with...

- Equilibrium “Anomalies”
- Many empirical “anomalies” are actually consistent with the single beta CAPM if the empiricist utilizes an equity-only proxy for the true market portfolio. CAPM is basically a method of decision-making w.r.t. any kind of investment in any asset. Equity betas estimated against this particular inefficient proxy will be understated, with...

- Value-Glamour and Accruals Mispricing: One anomaly or Two?
- This paper investigates whether the accruals anomaly documented by Sloan in the accounting literature is distinct from the value-glamour anomaly documented in the finance literature. This paper finds that the accruals strategy earns abnormal returns incremental to past sales growth, book-to-market and earnings-to-price proxies of value-glamour. However, after controlling for...

- Japan's Lost Decade and the Complexity Externality
- The Japanese economy has suffered from three anomalies since the beginning of the 1990s: persistently low economic growth, continuously declining asset prices, and prevalence of procrastination over the serious problems of NonPerforming Loans (NPLs). A simple model illustrates that the spreading of the complexity externality, which was triggered by NPL...

- Assessing Asset Pricing Anomalies
- The optimal portfolio strategy is developed for an investor who has detected an asset pricing anomaly but is not certain that the anomaly is genuine rather than merely apparent. The analysis takes account of the fact that the parameters of both the underlying asset pricing model and the anomalous returns...

- Robust-H-Infinity Forecasting and Asset Pricing Anomalies
- The paper presents an alternative expectation formation mechanism that helps rationalize well known asset pricing anomalies, such as the predictability of excess returns, excess volatility, and the equity-premium puzzle. The new element is that uncertainty cannot be modeled via probability distributions. It considers an asset pricing model where uncertainty is...
