Anjewierden, Scott | Automated kinematic analysis of pre-pluse inhibition in larval zebrafish | Animals differentially ignore or attend to sensory information depending on their immediate environment. A significant example of this phenomenon is audiomotorpre-pulse inhibition (PPI), in which the startle response to a loud noise is suppressed by a preceding stimulus of lower intensity. This a... | Zebra danio - Development; Kinematics - Research; Kinematic parameters; Swim kinematics; Pre-pulse inhibition | 2014-12 |

Dove-Swisher, Taylor | Bias-Coppected Estimation for singles-event studies | Single-firm event studies used in securities fraud litigation are prone to statistical bias. Brav and Heaton (2015) describe three potential issues: low statistical power to detect price impacts, confounding effects that cannot be averaged out, and an effect bias in the upward direction. The effect ... | | 2017 |

Ellingson, Drew | Bitangent lines to planar quartic curves in algebraic and tropical geometry | Bitangents are lines which are tangent to a curve at two points. The bitangents of a classical quartic are well understood, and a result originally due to Cayley tells us that there are always precisely 28 bitangents to a generic quartic plane curve. When looking at Tropical Geometry, the situation ... | Tropical geometry; Curves, Quartic; Curves, Algebraic; Bitangents | 2015-04 |
