A pre-condition for employer learning is that signals at labor market entry do not fully reveal graduates' productivity. I model various distinct sources of signal imperfection - such as noise and multi-dimensional types - and characterize their implications for the private return to skill acquisition.

Imperfect Art or Imperfect Science?
The Tocqueville Review, 1995Daniel Bell's paper, "Social Science: An Imperfect Art," in the latest issue of La Revue Tocqueville is a sweeping overview of the history and prospects of social science by a scholar whose seminal ideas have become part of our Zeitgeist. It combines extraordinary erudition with extraordinary common sense.

Physical Review, 1953
The partition function of the classical imperfect gas is approximated by means of a generalized cell model in which the number of particles in a cell is taken as the statistical variable. The limiting free energy per particle exhibits critical phenomena, and, for temperatures less than the critical temperature, the $p\ensuremath{-}v$ isotherm is a ...

Brill’s Journal of Afroasiatic Languages and Linguistics, 2015
This paper argues that the imperfective verb form in Standard Arabic does not express an ‘imperfective’ meaning, but rather marks the default lexical form of the verb, and is therefore analogous to the English infinitive. The progressive and habitual readings cross-linguistically typical of the imperfective are derived in Arabic by applying covert ...

Characterization for imperfect polarizers under imperfect conditions
Applied Optics, 1998The principles for measuring the extinction ratio and transmittance of a polarizer are formulated by use of the principal Mueller matrix, which includes both polarization and depolarization. The extinction ratio is about half of the depolarization, and the contrast is the inverse of the extinction ratio.

Imperfect vaccines and imperfect models
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2002Abstract A recent paper by Gandon et al. presents a model for how leaky vaccines can lead to evolutionary changes in the virulence of parasites. Whilst readers of some of the press reaction to this paper might be forgiven for thinking that it referred to certainties about actual malaria vaccines, there are currently no malaria vaccines beyond the ...

Tall, young, slim, bright, sporty, polite, athletic, controlled, musical, socially polished, good looking, sensible, and obedient, with straight white teeth: these traits of perfection are the aspirations of many parents and adults alike. And medicine is a candle to the perfect and perfectionism—a perfect degree, status, job, and career.

Summary: Causal reasoning is important to human reasoning. It plays an essential role in day-to-day human decision-making. Human understanding of causality is necessarily imprecise, imperfect, and uncertain. Soft computing methods may be able to provide the approximation tools needed. In order to algorithmically consider causes, imprecise causal models
