Efficiently Parsable Extensions to Tree-Local Multicomponent TAG
(Association for Computational Linguistics, 2009)Recent applications of Tree-Adjoining Grammar (TAG) to the domain of semantics as well as new attention to syntactic phenomena have given rise to increased interested in more expressive and complex multicomponent TAG ... -
Egalitarianism and the Returns to Education during the Great Transformation of American Education
(University of Chicago Press, 1999)Secondary school education greatly expanded in the United States from 1910 to 1940, setting its schooling attainment apart from that of all other countries. Barely 10 percent of youth were high school graduates in 1910, ... -
Egg: An Extensible and Economics-Inspired Open Grid Computing Platform
(World Scientific Publishing, 2006)The Egg project provides a vision and implementation of how heterogeneous computational requirements will be supported within a single grid and a compelling reason to explain why computational grids will thrive. Environment ... -
Egocentric Social Network Structure, Health, and Pro-Social Behaviors in a National Panel Study of Americans
(Public Library of Science, 2012)Using a population-based, panel survey, we study how egocentric social networks change over time, and the relationship between egocentric network properties and health and pro-social behaviors. We find that the number of ... -

Eileen Chang’s Feminine Chinese Modernity: Dysfunctional Marriages, Hysterical Women, and the Primordial Eugenic Threat
(Overseas Education College of Xiamen University, 2014)Eileen Chang has been described by critics as an unapologetically introspective and sentimental but largely apolitical writer. When most other writers of her time were concentrating on the grand and the abstract in exploring ... -
Einstein and the Cultural Roots of Modern Science

Einstein and the “Crucial” Experiment
(American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT), 1969-10)This paper was presented on 5 February 1969 at a joint symposium of the AAPT and APS on the history and philosophy of physics, held during the AAPT-APS annual meeting. -
The Einstein database of IPC x-ray observations of optically selected and radio-selected quasars, 1.
(IOP Publishing, 1994)We present the first volume of the Einstein quasar database. The database includes estimates of the X-ray count rates, fluxes, and luminosities for 514 quasars and Seyfert 1 galaxies observed with the Imaging Proportional ... -

El Niño Chaos: Overlapping of Resonances Between the Seasonal Cycle and the Pacific Ocean-Atmosphere Oscillator
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 1994)The El Niño—Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle is modeled as a low-order chaotic process driven by the seasonal cycle. A simple model suggests that the equatorial Pacific ocean-atmosphere oscillator can go into nonlinear ... -

El: A Program for Ecological Inference
(American Statistical Association, 2004)The program EI provides a method of inferring individual behavior from aggregate data. It implements the statistical procedures, diagnostics, and graphics from the book A Solution to the Ecological Inference Problem: ... -
Elaboration of B Gene Function to Include the Identity of Novel Floral Organs in the Lower Eudicot Aquilegia (Ranunculaceae)
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 2007)The basal eudicot Aquilegia (columbine) has an unusual floral structure that includes two morphologically distinct whorls of petaloid organs and a clearly differentiated fifth organ type, the staminodium. In this study, ... -
Elastic energy storage in the shoulder and the evolution of high-speed throwing in Homo
(2013)Although some primates, including chimpanzees, throw objects occasionally1,2, only humans regularly throw projectiles with high speed and great accuracy. Darwin noted that humans’ unique throwing abilities, made possible ... -
Elastic Instability of a Crystal Growing on a Curved Surface
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2014)Although the effects of kinetics on crystal growth are well understood, the role of substrate curvature is not yet established. We studied rigid, two-dimensional colloidal crystals growing on spherical droplets to understand ... -
Elastic leak of a seal
(Elsevier BV, 2014)An elastomeric seal may leak by elastic deformation without any material damage. We describe elastic leak using a theoretical model, and watch a seal deform and leak using a transparent experimental setup. The elastomer ...
