' 1 INTRODUCTION This Directory identifies some of the, schools, colleges, and universities that success- fully use computers for learning and_teaching in the United States. The purpose of the Directory is to help teachers,- administrators, computer center people, and other educators to exchange informatibn, ideas, programs and courses. All of the people listed as '`contacts" in this directory have generously agreed to share their knowledge and experience with others who need to learn. In this way, the Directory encourages growth of the inforr,nal network of educators who are helping each other toearn and to teach; -witi: he computer and about the computer. StudentS and teacherst the e schools and colleges'are using computers in many . different ways in the learni/tea hing process.' A few examples include data processing training, remedial reading and mathematics drills, physics and chemistry laboratory simu- lations, computer-generated art and music, social science data bases and statistical analysis, engineering computatioris; engineering design aids, and'business games. Many students in all fields of study' are becoming computer literate citizens. Achieving the benefits of academic comPuting at acceptable cost levels requires a great deal of knowledge and experience in organization, Staffing, faculty training, curricu- lum, hardware, software, budgeting, and politics. One of the shortcuts to acquiring such, _expertise is by learning from those who have been there. Institutions Included and Excluded The Directory identifies 94 elementary and secondary schools, 71 public school districts, 37 community colleges, 158 private anttpublic colleges and universities, and 7 institutions we call "public access." Public Access institutions provide instructional computing through museums or community and vocational centers. The Directory does not list professional schools, military schools or industry traning programs. The Directory does not list computer service organizations, such as timesharing companies or educational networks. The Directory does not list projects 'skich as curriculum development centers. The Search Many eligible institutions are not listed in this edition of the Directory., The reader can participate in the search for institutions.Fill ouA the nomination form in the back of this book and send it to HumtRO. Current plans call updating the Directory next year. The institutions you nominate will be-contacted and, if they agree, will be included, in the next edition of this Directory. Please do not hesitate to nominate your own institution! To find the 370 institutions listed in this Directory, we conducted. a mail survey in excess of 7000 educators and technologists from all States and Puerto Rico. We Mailed a package of information.and nomination forms td 3,500 persons on the mailing lists of the Asiociation for DevelOpment of Computer-Based Instructional Systems (ADCIS), and'the Association for Educational Data Systems (AEDS). About 3,500 other packages were mailed to members of the Association for Computing Machinery Special Interest Group on Computer Uses in Education (SigCUE), Direct rs of college and university academic coMputint center's, Chairpersons of bOrnputer sc nce . , VII O 5 and data processing departments, and principals of high schools identified in Anearlier study.'Announcements were published in NEA NOW, THEVournal (TechnologiCal Horizbns in Education), and Educational Technology Magazine. -About 600 persons responded to our inquiry. These persons were from the computer industry, computer center personnel, administrators of educational institutions, faculty, and educational corlsultants. A hundred or so nominations were for organizations such as networks, computer gervice,companies, pr curriculum projects.For example, we received ten nominations for TIES network in Minnesota. In these cases, we calledthe organizations nominated and asked them in turn to nominate specific schools -or colleges that use their network. Self- nominations, were encouraged. The majority of the nomi- nations weretrom people who knew' the school by reputation or personal contact. Diredtory Information . We 'telephoned at least one person at each nominated institution to ascertain the appropriate contact to list in the Directory. -The person-listed as the contact generally has the broa:dest purview of academic computing at his/her institution.In a telephOne interview with this person, we gathered the items of information found in thig Directory. then sent a proof copy of the directory entry to each institution contact, requesting _ ve lication of the information. Reasons for Nomination A unique feature to the Directory is that we asked the nominators to identify-reasons why educators at other similar instftutiong' might want to know about the nominated institution. Hundreds of different reasons were given. They fall into several broad cate- gories as-follows: 4.

Page 1 of 30 Version: January 26 ABSTRACT Production functions that take into account uncertainty can be empirically estimated by taking a state contingent view of the world. Where there is no a priori information to allocate data amongst a small number of states, the estimation may be carried out with finite mixtures model. The complexity of the estimation almost guarantees a large number of local maxima for the likelihood function.

  • Bab 1 Pendahuluan
    BAB 1 PENDAHULUAN Bab ini akan membahas pengertian dasar statistik dengan sub-sub pokok bahasan sebagai berikut : Sub Bab Pokok Bahasan A. Sejarah dan Perkembangan Statistik B. Tokoh-tokoh Kontributor Statistika C. Definisi dan Konsep Statistik Modern D. Kegunaan Statistik E. Pembagian Statistik F. Statistik dan Komputer G. Soal Latihan A. Sejarah dan Perkembangan Statistik Penggunaan istilah statistika berakar dari istilah-istilah dalam bahasa latin modern statisticum collegium (“dewan negara”) dan bahasa Italia statista (“negarawan” atau “politikus”). Istilah statistik pertama kali digunakan oleh Gottfried Achenwall (1719-1772), seorang guru besar dari Universitas Marlborough dan Gottingen. Gottfried Achenwall (1749) menggunakan Statistik dalam bahasa Jerman untuk pertama kalinya sebagai nama bagi kegiatan analisis data kenegaraan, dengan mengartikannya sebagai “ilmu tentang negara/state”. Pada awal abad ke- 19 telah terjadi pergeseran arti menjadi “ilmu mengenai pengumpulan dan klasifikasi data”. Sir John Sinclair memperkenalkan nama dan pengertian statistics ini ke dalam bahasa Inggris. E.A.W. Zimmerman mengenalkan kata statistics ke negeri Inggris. Kata statistics dipopulerkan di Inggris oleh Sir John Sinclair dalam karyanya: Statistical Account of Scotland 1791-1799. Namun demikian, jauh sebelum abad XVIII masyarakat telah mencatat dan menggunakan data untuk keperluan mereka. Pada awalnya statistika hanya mengurus data yang dipakai lembaga- lembaga administratif dan pemerintahan. Pengumpulan data terus berlanjut, khususnya melalui sensus yang dilakukan secara teratur untuk memberi informasi kependudukan yang selalu berubah. Dalam bidang pemerintahan, statistik telah digunakan seiring dengan perjalanan sejarah sejak jaman dahulu. Kitab perjanjian lama (old testament) mencatat adanya kegiatan sensus penduduk. Pemerintah kuno Babilonia, Mesir, dan Roma mengumpulkan data lengkap tentang penduduk dan kekayaan alam yang dimilikinya.

Introduction The ability to combine quantitative methods, econometric techniques, theory and data to analyze societal problems has become one of the major strengths of agricultural economics. The inability of agricultural economists to perform this task perfectly in some cases has been linked to the fragility of econometric results (Learner, 1983; Tomek, 1993). While small changes in model specification may result in considerable impact and changes in empirical results, Hendry and Richard (1982) have shown that two models of the same relationship may result in contradicting result. Results like these weaken the value of applied econometrics (Tomek, 1993). Since the study by Tice and Kletke (1984) computer programming software have undergone tremendous improvements. However, experience in recent times has shown that available software packages are not foolproof and may not be as efficient and consistent as researchers often assume. Compounding errors, convergence, error due to how software read, interpret and process data impact the values of analytical results (see Tomek, 1993; Dewald, Thursby and Anderson, 1986).

  • Robust Audio Fingerprinting Method for Content-Based Copy Detection”
    Submitted by Reinhard Sonnleitner Submitted at Department of Computational Perception Supervisor and Audio Identication First Examiner via Fingerprinting Gerhard Widmer Second Examiner Achieving Robustness to Meinard Müller Severe Signal Modications April, 2017 Doctoral Thesis to obtain the academic degree of Doktor der technischen Wissenschaften in the Doctoral Program Technische Wissenschaften JOHANNES KEPLER UNIVERSITY LINZ Altenbergerstraÿe 69 4040 Linz, Österreich www.jku.at DVR 0093696 STATUTORYDECLARATION I hereby declare that the thesis submitted is my own unaided work, that I have not used other than the sources indicated, and that all direct and indirect sources are acknowledged as references. This printed thesis is identical with the electronic version submitted. Linz, April 2017 Reinhard Sonnleitner ABSTRACT In this thesis we approach the task of audio identification via audio fingerprinting, with the special emphasis on the complex task of designing a system that is highly robust to various signal modifications. We build a system that can account for linear and non-linear time- stretching, pitch-shifting and speed changes of query audio excerpts, as well as for severe noise distortions. We motivate the design of yet another fingerprinting method to complement the rich number of proposed methods and research in this field. In this thesis we propose a novel, efficient, highly accurate and precise fingerprinting method that works on geometric hashes of local maxima of the spectrogram representation of audio signals. We propose to perform the matching of features using efficient range- search, and to subsequently integrate a verification stage for match hypotheses to maintain high precision and specificity on challenging datasets. We gradually refine this method from its early concept to a practically applicable system that is evaluated on queries against a database of 430,000 tracks, with a total duration of 3.37 years of audio content.

  • Cumulation of Poverty Measures: the Theory Beyond It, Possible Applications and Software Developed
    Cumulation of Poverty measures: the theory beyond it, possible applications and software developed (Francesca Gagliardi and Giulio Tarditi) Siena, October 6th , 2010 1 Context and scope Reliable indicators of poverty and social exclusion are an essential monitoring tool. In the EU-wide context, these indicators are most useful when they are comparable across countries and over time. Furthermore, policy research and application require statistics disaggregated to increasingly lower levels and smaller subpopulations. Direct, one-time estimates from surveys designed primarily to meet national needs tend to be insufficiently precise for meeting these new policy needs. This is particularly true in the domain of poverty and social exclusion, the monitoring of which requires complex distributional statistics – statistics necessarily based on intensive and relatively small- scale surveys of households and persons. This work addresses some statistical aspects relating to improving the sampling precision of such indicators in EU countries, in particular through the cumulation of data over rounds of regularly repeated national surveys. 2 EU-SILC The reference data for this purpose are EU Statistics on Income and Living Conditions, the major source of comparative statistics on income and living conditions in Europe. A standard integrated design has been adopted by nearly all EU countries. It involves a rotational panel, with a new sample of households and persons introduced each year to replace one-fourth of the existing sample. Persons enumerated in each new sample are followed-up in the survey for four years. The design yields each year a cross- sectional sample, as well as longitudinal samples of 2, 3 and 4 year duration.
