Abstract:

The Riemann hypothesis was first proposed by Bernhard Riemann in 1860 [1] and says all non-trivial zeroes to the Riemann zeta function lie on the line with the real part 12 in the complex plane [1]. If proven to be true this would give a much better approximation of the number of prime numbers less than some number X. The Riemann hypothesis is regarded to be one of the most important unsolved mathematical problems. It is one of the Clay InstituteMilleniumproblems and originally one of the unsolved problems presented by David Hilbert as essential for 20th century mathematics at International C

Abstract:

Thesis advisor: Harold Petersen<br>According to the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH), speculative bubbles do not exist and are impossible. We disagree. If prices are the only observable component of an asset’s value, and they themselves are an aggregated consensus of perceived value, then what about the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) is testable? Rather than assume that prices always reflect value (i.e. perfect market efficiency), we maintain that markets are efficient to the extent that one can be confident that tomorrow’s prices will not diverge dramatically or arbitrarily from today’s p

Abstract:

This work is inspired by Lipsitz (1998) and Allport (1954) because both authors connect micro level processes to social macro level patterns. Allport’s Nature of Prejudice sought to understand patterns of anti-Semitism as connected to a larger social context. From this work, Allport developed the contact hypothesis which is premised on the idea that diversity helps alleviate racial tensions. Lipsitz’ Possessive Investment in Whiteness connects White racial privilege to a history of racial social inequality. In conintuum, I develop the nuances on prejudice formation as it leads to the denial of

Abstract:

This thesis investigates some unaddressed problems in kernel nonparametric hypothesis testing. The contributions are grouped around three main themes: Wild Bootstrap for Degenerate Kernel Tests. A wild bootstrap method for nonparametric hypothesis tests based on kernel distribution embeddings is proposed. This bootstrap method is used to construct provably consistent tests that apply to random processes. It applies to a large group of kernel tests based on V-statistics, which are degenerate under the null hypothesis, and non-degenerate elsewhere. In experiments, the wild bootstrap gives strong

A new technique for iconic hypothesis verification in model-based vision systems has been developed, which enhances the resolution of the problem of three-dimensional object recognition in two-dimensional scenes. This thesis investigates an iconic feature-matching approach to verification, in which two-dimensional image features are predicted from a specific view of a three-dimensional geometric model, and these features are matched directly to the unprocessed image data. This solves the crucial image to model registration problem. The iconic matching approach solves two of the major disadvant

Linguists studying language acquisition often assume that once a first language is fully acquired, its mental linguistic representation remains constant and stable.

The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate specific areas of the first language that may be particularly vulnerable to L1 attrition if exposed to a dominant

Abstract:

For statistical estimation of population parameters, Fisher&rsquo<br>s maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs) are commonly used. They are consistent, unbiased and efficient, at any rate for large n. In most situations, however, MLEs are elusive because of computational difficulties. To alleviate these difficulties, Tiku&rsquo<br>s modified maximum likelihood estimators (MMLEs) are used. They are explicit functions of sample observations and easy to compute. They are asymptotically equivalent to MLEs and, for small n, are equally efficient. Moreover, MLEs and MMLEs are numerically very close to o

Abstract:

One of the main objectives of this dissertation is the development of a new method of evaluating the performance of bootstrap-based tests. The evaluation method that is currently in use in the literature has some major shortcomings, for example, it does not allow one to determine the robustness of a bootstrap estimator of a critical value. This is because the evaluation and the estimation are based on the same data. This traditional method of evaluation often leads to too optimistic probability of type I errors when bootstrap critical values are used. We show how this new, more robust, method

However, this can only be the case when researchers have a good set of hypotheses to test on the data. Conversely, the data may have other equally important areas that remain unexplored.

One mode supports the generation of ideas while a second mode of thought is conducive to evaluating ideas (Gabora & Ranjan, 2013; Howard-Jones, 2002; Kaufman, 2011). It has been suggested that creative individuals may be characterized by being good at shifting between different modes of thinking (Howard-Jones, 2002; Kaufman, 2011; Vartanian, 2009).
