Redistributive Politics and Market Efficiency: An Experimental Study
No full textWe study the interaction between competitive markets that produce large but unequally distributed welfare gains and elections through which the poor majority can redistribute income away from the rich minority. In our simple laboratory democracy, subjects first earn their income by trading in a double auction market and thereafter vote on redistributive policies in two-candidate elections. In addition, in one of the treatments subjects can attempt to influence the candidates’ policy choices by transferring money to them. We observe very high levels of redistribution – even when transfers to candidates are possible – with little effect on market efficiency. Overall, the experimental results are explained by our equilibrium predictions.redistribution, double auction, elections, lobbying

A Geometric Algebra Co-Processor for Color Edge Detection
No full textThis paper describes advancement in color edge detection, using a dedicated Geometric Algebra (GA) co-processor implemented on an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC). GA provides a rich set of geometric operations, giving the advantage that many signal and image processing operations become straightforward and the algorithms intuitive to design. The use of GA allows images to be represented with the three R, G, B color channels defined as a single entity, rather than separate quantities. A novel custom ASIC is proposed and fabricated that directly targets GA operations and results in significant performance improvement for color edge detection. Use of the hardware described in this paper also shows that the convolution operation with the rotor masks within GA belongs to a class of linear vector filters and can be applied to image or speech signals. The contribution of the proposed approach has been demonstrated by implementing three different types of edge detection schemes on the proposed hardware. The overall performance gains using the proposed GA Co-Processor over existing software approaches are more than 3.2× faster than GAIGEN and more than 2800× faster than GABLE. The performance of the fabricated GA co-processor is approximately an order of magnitude faster than previously published results for hardware implementations

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETGH
i Reuben B. Robertson was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, June 11th. After
finishing high school he entered Yale and graduated in 1900. He also graduated
in law from the University of Cincinnati in 1903, and practiced his profession until
1906 with the firm of Robertson and Buckwalter, Cincinnati, Ohio.
On June 7, 1907, he married Miss Hope Thomson, a daughter of the late
Peter G. Thomson, founder of The Champion Paper and Fibre Company. In 1907,
Mr. Robertson entered the service of The Champion Coated Paper Company,
I
Hamilton, Ohio, and was placed in charge of the Woods Operations of The Champion
Fibre Company, Canton, North Carolina, a subsidiary of The Champion
b Coated Paper Company.
In 1908, he became General Manager of The Champion Fibre Company, and
in 1925, he was elected its president, in which ppsition he remained until 1935
when the various subsidiaries of the Champion company were merged and the name
of the company was changed to The Champion Paper and Fibre Company.
At the present time, Mr. Robertson is Executive Vice-President of The
Champion Paper and Fibre Company and General Manager of the Canton and
I Houston Divisions.
