Group Size and Conformity in Charitable Giving: Evidence from a Donation-Based Crowdfunding Platform in Japan
2017
Social Science Research Network
The main variables are the modal amount among the preceding five donations and their appearance along the sequence. ...
Using data for 9,989 donations and exploring the model propounded by Smith et al. (2015), we construct variables to explain information a donor sees on the webpage. ...
This result implies that subsequent donors could recognize that many previous donors contributed the same amount, when multiple modal donations appear not only at no interval but also at some intervals ...

DeepNAG: Deep Non-Adversarial Gesture Generation
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
Through evaluations, we compare the utility of DeepGAN and DeepNAG against two alternative techniques for training five recognizers using data augmentation over six datasets. ...
We find that DeepNAG outperforms DeepGAN in accuracy, training time (up to 17x faster), and realism, thereby opening the door to a new line of research in generator network design and training for gesture ...

Adaptive Decision Fusion for Audio-Visual Speech Recognition
[chapter]
2008
Speech Recognition
Since it is practically impossible to use the data of all possible noise conditions, we use only speech data for a few sampled conditions. ...
To increase reliability of the experiments, we use the jackknife method; the data of 56 speakers are divided into four groups and we repeat the experiment with the data of the three groups (42 speakers ...

Estimating terrestrial biodiversity through extrapolation

In this case, two small samples might underestimate complementarity by yielding the same few common species, missing many rare species that would differentiate the sites in a larger sample.) ...

Fallacies of Agreement
2018
ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction
First, we show that raw agreement rates disregard agreement that occurs by chance and do not reliably capture how participants distinguish among referents. ...
We also demonstrate how to use common resampling techniques to support statistical inference with interval estimates. ...
I would also like to thank Gilles Bailly, Edwin Chan, Audrey Girouard, Thammathip Piumsomboon, Martin Weigel, and their supervisors or co-authors for sharing their data with us and allowing us to reanalyze ...

Combining Biometric Evidence for Person Authentication
[chapter]
2005
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Humans are excellent experts in person recognition and yet they do not perform excessively well in recognizing others only based on one modality such as single facial image. ...
In particular, fingerprint and speech based systems will serve as illustration. A signal adaptive supervisor based on the input biometric signal quality is evaluated. ...
It is reliably observed in a number of studies that negative bias in ability to recognize faces of another racial group versus own racial group exists [4, 5, 6] . ...

DNA-DNA Hybridization Evidence for Subfamily Structure among Hummingbirds

Analyses of complete matrices of ATto and ATmoa, statistics among eight hummingbird genera and a swift generated the same fully resolved topology, which bootstrapping and jackknifing analyses supported ...
The data are consistent with monophyly for the traditional hermit (Phaethornithinae) and nonhermit (Trochilinae) subfamilies, and with placement of the hermitlike Tooth-billed Hummingbird (Androdon aequatorialis ...

Characterizing and Comparing Phylogenies from their Laplacian Spectrum
2015
Systematic Biology
Phylogenetic trees are central to many areas of biology, ranging from population genetics and epidemiology to microbiology, ecology, and macroevolution. ...
Here we present a graph-theoretical approach that provides such a framework. We show how to construct the spectral density profile of a phylogenetic tree from its Laplacian graph. ...

Systematic Review of Functional MRI Applications for Psychiatric Disease Subtyping
2021
Frontiers in Psychiatry
However, to date, this subfield is at an incipient exploratory stage, and all retrieved studies were mostly proofs of principle where further validation and increased sample sizes are craved for. ...
Even with technology progressing and costs decreasing, this might incentivize the search for more accessible, clinically ready functional proxies in the future. ...
Lastly, in addition to questionnaires and more traditional clinical datasets, a data modality that gained momentum over the last few years is digitomics (electronic health records, mobile sensor data) ...
