NEAT Particles: Design, Representation, and Animation of Particle System Effects

2007 IEEE Symposium on Computational Intelligence and Games, 2007
Particle systems are a representation, computation, and rendering method for special effects such as fire, smoke, explosions, electricity, water, magic, and many other phenomena. This paper presents NEAT particles, a new design, representation, and animation method for particle systems tailored to real-time effects in video games and simulations.

A Critical View on the NEAT Equating Design: Statistical Modeling and Identifiability Problems

Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2022
The nonequivalent groups with anchor test (NEAT) design is widely used in test equating. Under this design, two groups of examinees are administered different test forms with each test form containing a subset of common items. Because test takers from different groups are assigned only one test form, missing score data emerge by design rendering some ...

A NEaT Design for Reliable and Scalable Network Stacks

Proceedings of the 12th International on Conference on emerging Networking EXperiments and Technologies, 2016
Operating systems provide a wide range of services, which are crucial for the increasingly high reliability and scalability demands of modern applications. Providing both reliability and scalability at the same time is hard. Commodity OS architectures simply lack the design abstractions to do so for demanding core OS services such as the network stack.

An Evaluation of Five Linear Equating Methods for the NEAT Design

Measurement, 2009
This study uses the results of two previous papers (Kane, Mroch, Suh, & Ripkey, this issue; Suh, Mroch, Kane, & Ripkey, this issue) and the literature on linear equating to evaluate five linear equating methods along several dimensions, including the plausibility of their assumptions and their levels of bias and root mean squared difference (RMSD). The

An Alternative View on the NEAT Design in Test Equating

Springer Proceedings in Mathematics and Statistics, 2018
Assuming a “synthetic population” and imposing strong assumption to estimate score distributions has been the traditional practice when performing equating under the nonequivalent groups with anchor tests design (NEAT). In this paper, we use the concept of partial identification of probability distributions to offer an alternative to this traditional ...

Who Needs Linear Equating Under the NEAT Design?

Measurement, 2010
Test equating under the NEAT design is, at best, a necessary evil. At bottom, the procedure aims to reach a conclusion on what a tested person would have done, if he or she were administered a set ...
