Testing the bounds of compassion in young children [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2021 Abstract Extensive research shows that, under the right circumstances, children are highly prosocial. Less in known about their capacity for compassion. Across five experiments (N = 285), we aimed to capture the bounds of 4-5-year-old children’s compassionate behaviour.

Testing bounded arboricity [PDF]
ACM Transactions on Algorithms, 2018 In this article, we consider the problem of testing whether a graph has bounded arboricity. The class of graphs with bounded arboricity includes many important graph families (e.g., planar graphs and randomly generated preferential attachment graphs).

Parameterizations of Test Cover with Bounded Test Sizes [PDF]
Algorithmica, 2014 In the {\sc Test Cover} problem we are given a hypergraph $H=(V, \mathcal{E})$ with $|V|=n, |\mathcal{E}|=m$, and we assume that $\mathcal{E}$ is a test cover, i.e. for every pair of vertices $x_i, x_j$, there exists an edge $e \in \mathcal{E}$ such that $|{x_i,x_j}\cap e|=1$.

Group Testing Algorithms: Bounds and Simulations [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2014 We consider the problem of non-adaptive noiseless group testing of $N$ items of which $K$ are defective. We describe four detection algorithms: the COMP algorithm of Chan et al.; two new algorithms, DD and SCOMP, which require stronger evidence to declare an item defective; and an essentially optimal but computationally difficult algorithm called SSS ...

The relationship between life and non-life insurance development and economic growth in Iran: An application of the ARDL bounds testing approach [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Insurance Research, 2013 In this research, the empirical relationship between the development of life and non-life insurances and economic growth in Iran has been investigated using the ARDL method, the edge test approach and the data of the period 1358-1388.

Software assurance by bounded exhaustive testing [PDF]
ACM SIGSOFT Software Engineering Notes, 2004 The contribution of this paper is an experiment that shows the potential value of a combination of selective reverse engineering to formal specifications and bounded exhaustive testing to improve the assurance levels of complex software. A key problem is to scale up test input generation so that meaningful results can be obtained.

Testing Expansion in Bounded-Degree Graphs [PDF]
Combinatorics, Probability and Computing, 2007 We consider the problem oftesting expansion in bounded-degree graphs. We focus on the notion ofvertex expansion: an α-expander is a graphG= (V,E) in which every subsetU⊆Vof at most |V|/2 vertices has a neighbourhood of size at least α ⋅ |U|. Our main result is that one can distinguish good expanders from graphs that are far from being weak expanders in

Testing the validity of the BARS curve for Turkey [PDF]
Ekonomski Anali, 2022 This study has two main aims: to test the validity of the BARS curve in Turkey for the period 1974-2016 and to estimate the optimal government size for that period and compare it with the current situation. It uses the Autoregressive Distributed
