Concentration in Knowledge Output: A case of Economics Journals
No full textThis paper assesses the degree of author concentration in seven economics journals, which were published in India during 1990-2002. To measure the degree of author concentration, Lotka's Law was used. Moreover, we also make an exploratory analysis of the geographic, economics subfield and institutional concentration in 704 economics journals. An important finding of this paper is that specialized journals in the sample report the highest degree of author concentration. This result is quite similar to the findings by Cox and Chung (1991). Furthermore, there are several instances showing that the journals lean towards certain norms; this may affect the flow of innovative ideas into economics. We conclude that a knowledge activity, involving the high degree of concentration and a biased publication process, may affect the flow of new ideas into the discipline.Concentration, Lotka's Law

Tomographic inversion of focusing operators
No full textSeismic images of the structure of the earth are a prerequisite for finding new hydrocarbon reservoirs. The quality of a seismic images is highly dependent on the accuracy of the velocity model of the subsurface. Conventional imaging consists of an iterative process between obtaining the image using a velocity model, and updating this model by investigating the properties of the image. The Common Focal Point (CFP) method makes it possible to analyze and treat seismic data in a fundamentally different way as it uses a two-step approach: 1) two-way reflection data are transformed into one-way data by estimating focusing operators, and 2) these focusing operators are used to estimate the velocity model by tomographic inversion. This second step, the tomographic inversion of focusing operators, is the subject of this thesis. This research contains two important new aspects. First, the use of focusing operators in (3D) velocity model estimation. Second the data-driven approach of the method. Some additional concepts like the inclusion of a priori information, the joint inversion of P and S-wave operators, and the new concept of the focal point clouds, by which the adequacy of the velocity model can be analyzed, are also addressed. After evaluation of the method of tomographic inversion of focusing operators on both synthetic and real data it can be concluded that the method results in accurate velocity models and is capable of dealing with complex subsurface models.Applied Science
Agonies of empire: American power from Clinton to Biden by Michael Cox
No full textProfessor Michael Cox discusses his new book, Agonies of Empire: American Power from Clinton to Biden, which explores how five very different American Presidents have addressed US foreign policy since the end of the Cold War. In so doing, the book examines the deep sources of American power, the crisis many claim the US is now facing and how this may relate to the current war in Ukraine. If you are interested in this book review, you watch a video or listen to a podcast of author Professor Michael Cox discussing Agonies of Empire at an LSE public event, recorded on 24 March 2022.

Letter from John R. Cox to Hayao (Sam) and Toshiko Chuman
No full textA letter to Hayao (Sam) Chuman and Toshiko Chuman (nee Nakamura) from John R. Cox, Major, Infantry Commanding with the Army's 7th Psychological Operations Battalion. The letter regards Hayao and Toshiko's son's appointment to the Battalion in Vietnam, and what that appointment entails.The Chuman (Hayao "Sam" and Toshiko) Papers documents the World War II experiences of Hayao "Sam" and Toshiko Chuman, who were Kibei Nisei born in the United States but grew up and completed school in Japan, and then returned to the U.S. prior to the war. It chronicles the Chuman's incarceration from the Santa Anita Assembly Center, through Jerome, Rohwer, Tule Lake camps, and the Santa Fe and Crystal City internment camps as well as their struggle for restoring their U.S. citizenships in the 1960s. The digital collection consists of mostly textual material, including correspondence, affidavits, incarceration camp records, lease agreements, financial documents, receipts, pamphlets, and booklets
High-Level Approaches to Confidence Estimation in Speech Recognition
No full textWe describe some high-level approaches to estimating confidence scores for the words output by a speech recognizer. By "high-level" we mean that the proposed measures do not rely on decoder specific "side information" and so should find more general applicability than measures that have been developed for specific recognizers. Our main approach is to attempt to decouple the language modeling and acoustic modeling in the recognizer in order to generate independent information from these two sources that can then be used for estimation of confidence. We isolate these two information sources by using a phone recognizer working in parallel with the word recognizer. A set of techniques for estimating confidence measures using the phone recognizer output in conjunction with the word recognizer output is described. The most effective of these techniques is based on the construction of "metamodels," which generate alternative word hypotheses for an utterance. An alternative approach requires no other recognizers or extra information for confidence estimation and is based on the notion that a word that is semantically "distant" from the other decoded words in the utterance is likely to be incorrect. We describe a method for constructing "semantic similarities" between words and hence estimating a confidence. Results using the U.K. version of the Wall Street Journal are given for each technique
