- Business school research: bridging the gap between producers and consumers.(Statistical Data Included)
- There has been a great deal of continuing discussion concerning the seemingly unbridgeable gap between so much of the research produced by business school professors and the needs of the business people who, ideally, would use it. Here, we examine this gap and suggest a model for bridging it. We...

- Equal rights, special rights, and the nature of antidiscrimination law.
- The claim that antidiscrimination laws confer special rights on people the laws are meant to protect weakens the constitutional mandate for antidiscrimination and obfuscates the true issues the laws are meant to address. Antidiscrimination laws are meant to guarantee equal rights, not confer special rights. Laws should be critically analyzed...

- What the world is reading. (top ten non-fiction best-selling books in the U.S, the U.K., France, and Germany)(Brief Article)
- INTERNATIONAL comparisons of hardback bestsellers would not pass OECD tests of comparability. Generalizations can nonetheless be drawn from the four respected non-fiction lists we have chosen-- so long as they are broad. It is apparent, for instance, why France remains...

- Generalization vs. specialization in the pollination system of Hormathophylla spinosa - Cruciferae
- INTRODUCTION Most theoretical and empirical studies on plant-pollinator interactions use specialization as a central idea. Nevertheless, recent studies point out that generalization is at least as frequent as specialization in pollination systems, with increasing evidence indicating that most flowering plants are pollinated by a moderate to high number of...

- A Better Approximate Formula for Pricing American Options
- This paper presents a simple and precise analytical approximation method for pricing American options under Merton's assumptions. It is a generalization of the approximations of the Partial Differential Equation PDE developed by McMillan, and Barone-Adesi and Whaley. The proposed solution is compared to other approximations, including the Cox, Ross and...

- Long-Term Growth Trends in Private Label Market Shares
- Research has shown that most consumer product markets are in long-run competitive equilibrium. In most categories, a given brand's market share is stationary, showing remarkable stability over long time horizons (10 years). This empirical generalization has been attributed to both consumer inertia and competitive reaction elasticities that lead to offsetting...

- The Market Price Of Credit Risk
- The article describes the relationship between actual probability of default and defaultable security prices. The starting point is a first passage time model of default based on incomplete information. This model incorporates the unpredictable nature of default and thereby accounts for positive short spreads and the abrupt drops in defaultable...

- Dividends in the Theory of Derivative Securities Pricing
- This article develops the fundamental aspects of the theory of martingale pricing of derivative securities in a setting where the cumulative gains processes are Ito processes, while the cumulative dividend processes of both the underliers and the derivative securities are general enough to cover all cases encountered in practical applications....

- Discriminative MR Image Feature Analysis for Automatic Schizophrenia and Alzheimer's Disease Classification
- This white paper report proposes an alternative image feature based statistical learning approach, in addition to anatomical structural morphology analysis, to better classify MR image classes. It basically involves in formulating this as a supervised learning problem, where the MR image labels are given. The key element is to learn...

- SVM Decision Boundary Based Discriminative Subspace Induction
- This white paper deals with the formulating the problem of sufficient dimension reduction for classification in parallel terms as for regression. The report involves study of the problem of linear dimension reduction for classification, with a focus on sufficient dimension reduction, i.e., inducing subspaces without loss of discriminative information Disclosures...

- Hierarchical Linear Models and Cell Data
- This white paper report deals with Hierarchical linear models that are a generalization of Bayesian linear regression. They differ from Bayesian regression in that they determine the width of the prior distribution for the regression coefficients automatically from the data. They are particularly appropriate when we want to answer questions...

- Asset Allocation: Management Style and Performance Measurement
- This white paper reveals about Asset allocation which is generally defined as the allocation of an investor's portfolio among a number of "major" asset classes. Clearly such a generalization cannot be made operational without defining such classes. An effective way to accomplish all these tasks is to use an asset...

- Polynomial Time Algorithms for Some Multi-Level Lot-Sizing Problems With Production Capacities
- The article considers a model for a serial supply chain in which production, inventory, and transportation decisions are integrated, in the presence of production capacities and for different transportation cost functions. The model studied in this paper is a generalization of the traditional single-item economic lot-sizing model, adding stationary production...
