A central finding in many cortical areas is that single neurons can match behavioral performance in the discrimination of sensory stimuli. However, whether this is true for natural behaviors...
Instant Message Clustering Based on Extended Vector Space Model * (2008)
Abstract. Instant intercommunion techniques � such as Instant Messaging (IM) are widely popularized. Aiming at such kind of large scale masscommunication media, clustering on its text content is a...

A Distributional Analysis of the Gender Earnings Gap in Urban China (2006)
We compare several income distributions in urban China in the late 1980s and mid-1990s using tests for stochastic dominance in order to decompose gender differentials. Examination of the entire...

Is the Quantity-Quality Trade-off Really a Trade-off for All?
Although the theoretical trade-off between the quantity and quality of children is well-established, empirical evidence supporting such a causal relationship is limited. Moreover, empirical studies...
Employment and Fertility Choice: A Differential Game Approach
For OECD countries there is an intriguing variety of combinations between total fertility rate (TFR) and female labor force participation rate (FPR) suggesting the existence of multiple equilibria....

An Empirical Study of the Effectiveness of Speech-Recognition-Based Pronunciation Training
Laura Mayfield Tomokiyo, Le Wang, Maxine Eskenazi
We have tested a fixed version of the Fluency foreign language pronunciation trainer to determine whether users actually improve their pronunciation through its use. The Fluency system uses the CMU...
Is the Quantity-Quality Trade-off a Trade-off for All, None, or Some?
Although the theoretical trade-off between the quantity and quality of children is well-established, empirical evidence supporting such a causal relationship − particularly on child health − is...
