26 Lohse, Keith R.Modeling Longitudinal Outcomes: A Contrast of Two MethodsBackground: Repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) is frequently used to model longitudinal data but does not appropriately account for within-person correlations over time, does not explicitly model time, and cannot flexibly handle missing data. In contrast, mixed-effects regression address...mixed-effects regression; ANOVA; learning; development
27 Johnson, Christopher R.Optimizing Inverse Electrocardiographic Problem: Hybrid and High-Order Finite Element MethodOne type of inverse problems in electrocardiography (ECG) is to non-invasively reconstruct epicardial electric potentials from body-surface measurements. We study how to design the finite element discretization of such problem, so as to optimize the conditioning and stability of the resulting num...

34 Yang, Xuejun; Chen, Yang; Eide, Eric; Regehr, JohnFinding compiler bugs with random testingUndefined behavior (such as divide by 0) or unspecified behavior (such as order of evaluation) gives compilers freedom to diverge, causing failure to our voting mechanism Control Flow Analysis • a control flow analyzer that can handle abnormal edges created by jump statements (goto / break ...
35 Pugsley, Seth H; Spjut, Josef Bo; Nellans, David W; Balasubramonian, RajeevSWEL: hardware cache coherence protocols to map shared data onto shared cachesIn chip multiprocessors, replication of cache lines is allowed to reduce the latency each core has to access a cache line. Because of this replication, it is possible for one copy of data to become out of date if another copy of that data is modified. How a MESI protocol accomplishes this: ? K...
36 Gilbert, Nathan Alan; Riloff, Ellen M.Exploring Knowledge-Rich Solutions to Noun Phrase Coreference ResolutionCoreference resolution is the task of identifying coreferent expressions in text. Accurate coreference resolution can improve other tasks such as machine translation, information retrievel and document summarization. Currently, the best approaches involve some form of supervised Machine Learni...
37 Bhatia, Harsh; Jadhav, Shreeraj Digambar; Norgard, Greg; Bremer, Peer-Timo; Pascucci, ValerioHelmholtz-Hodge Decomposition of vector fields on 2-manifoldsA Morse-like Decomposition ? - Morse-Smale decomposition for gradient (of scalar) fields is an interesting way of decomposing the domain into regions of unidirectional flow (from a source to a sink ). - But works for gradient fields, which are conservative (irrotational), only. - Can such a de...
38 Reimherr, Frederick W.Six month, open-trial of bupropion SR in comparison to methylphenidate in the treatment of adults with ADHDABSTRACT Objective: ADHD has become increasingly diagnosed and treated in adults. Treatment modalities have grown to include several antidepressants as well as stimulant medications. This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of bupropion SR compared to methylphenidate in an extended ...Trapeze Interactive Poster
39 Haan, Michael, Yu, Zhou, Draghici, ElenaHousehold Formation in Canada and the United States: Insights Into Differences by Race, Ethnicity, Immigrant Populations, and CountryThis study focuses on the most changeable component of housing demand in the future-the immigrant and minority groups, aged 25-75. Using the Canadian Census and the American Community Survey (ACS) across periods between 2006-2016, we compare headship and home ownership rates of both immigrants and n...homeownership; household formation; racial minorities; immigration; regional variation
40 Fan, Jessie X., Yu, ZhouUnderstanding Aging and Consumer Fraud Victimization in the Chinese Context: A Two-Stage Conceptual ApproachThe relationship between aging and consumer fraud victimization is mixed in the literature. Most studies based on survey data have found older consumers less likely to be fraud victims, while a few studies have found older consumers more likely to be victimized, especially with certain fraud types. ...Consumer financial fraud; fraud exposure; fraud victimization; fraud delivery methods; China
41 Shangguan, Xuming; Shi, Gengyan; Yu, ZhouESG performance and enterprise value in China: a novel approach via the regulated intermediary modelESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) performance increasingly influences enterprise valuation. While researchers debate about the precise nature of this influence, most assume a positive linear relationship. This study introduces a novel ESG responsibility performance metric utilizing the Reg...ESG; enterprise valuation; corporate sustainability; the Regulated Intermediary Model
42 Yu, Zhou; Fan, Jessie X.Migrant status and consumer financial fraud in China: a two-stage approachChinese migrants face socioeconomic disadvantages. Less is known about their vulnerability to consumer financial fraud, which can impede migrants' integration into urban China. This paper uses nationally representative data from 2015 to investigate migrants' risk factors for consumer financial fraud...Migration; hukou; risk factors; fraud exposure; victimization; rural migrants; and urban migrants
43 Yu, ZhouStriving and thriving: Utah's Chinese Pioneers and the expanding tapestry of diversity from 1870 to 2020The first wave of Chinese immigrants came to Utah in the 1860s, working on the Transcontinental Railroad and mining projects. This was not long after Mormon pioneers had settled in the Wasatch Front [1-4]. Both groups sought better lives, but their life trajectories diverged in the decades that foll...Chinese immigrants; Utah; historical; decennial census; microdata; population; migration
44 Lobell, Steven E.Why Israel launched a preventive military strike on Iraq's nuclear weapons program (1981): the fungibility of power reourcesIn 1981, Israel launched a preventive military strike against a nuclear reactor that Iraq was constructing at the Tuwaitha Nuclear Research Center. The low fungibility of Iraq's power resources, and especially its nuclear weapons program, shaped Israel's decision-making process. First, it motivated ...Reventive war; Osiraq granular; Theory of balancing; fungibility brittle; Israel power resources
