Some foundations for empirical study in the Euclidean spatial model of social choice
somefoundationsf00tove.pdf (1.505Mb)Abstract
Recent results are surveyed, and some new results are given, that contribute towards a theoretical and computational basis for empirical study in the Euclidean spatial model. The results are of two types: asymptotic statistical consistency of sample estimators, and algorithmic methods for recovering spatial locations and computing various solution concepts. The new results are: the asymptotic consistency of the sample yolk center and epsilon- core; NP-completeness of the 1-dimensional spatial location recovery system; a modification of the Poole-Rosenthal heuristic for multidimensional recovery; and fast algorithms to compute Simpson-Cramer points and supermajority win sets in fixed dimension

Dynamic Characteristics of Liquid Motion in Partially Filled tanks of Spinning Spacecraft
(1990);This paper presents a boundary layer model to predict dynamic characteristics of liquid motion in partially filled tanks of a spinning spacecraft. The solution is obtained by solving three boundary value problems: inviscid, ... -
Cooperative Control of Multiple Space Manipulators
(1994);This paper concerns the cooperative control of multiple manipulators attached to the same base as they reposition a common payload. The theory is easily applied to inertially based problems as well as space based free-floating ... -
Cyber System Assurance through Improved Network Anomaly Modeling and Detection
(Monterey, California: Naval Postgraduate SchoolMonterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2019-12); NPS-19-N039-AThe objectives of this work were to investigate the source of the dual natures of network traffic (i.e., Gaussian and alpha-stable) in order prove the merit of further development, improvement, and application of non-parametric ...
