Different interpretations of Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy

Child Abuse and Neglect, 2002
The definition of Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy is reviewed and considered in the context of the overlap with other harmful behaviors of parents. The high incidence of personal abnormal illness behavior in the perpetrators is leading to increasing concern about the safety of children who are cared for by parents who have abnormal illness behavior.

The physics of wind-blown loess: Implications for grain size proxy interpretations in Quaternary paleoclimate studies [PDF]

open access: yesEarth-Science Reviews, 2016
Loess deposits are recorders of aeolian activity during past glaciations. Since the size distribution of loess deposits depends on distance to the dust source, and environmental conditions at the source, during transport, and at deposition, loess ...

PRYSM v2.0: A Proxy System Model for Lacustrine Archives

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, 2018
Reconstructions of temperature and hydrology from lake sedimentary archives have made fundamental contributions to our understanding of past, present, and future climate and help evaluate general circulation models (GCMs).

A Robust and Interpretable Liquidity Proxy

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2018
In this paper we provide an operational definition of market and funding liquidity, and we introduce a method to create two interpretable liquidity measures, which we associate to these two types of liquidity. The construction is based on creating two parsimonious linear combinations of the many liquidity proxies often used in the liquidity literature.

Robust and Interpretable Liquidity Proxies for Market and Funding Liquidity

The Journal of Fixed Income, 2020
We introduce a method to create two interpretable liquidity measures, which we associate with market and funding liquidity. The construction is based on creating two parsimonious linear combinations of the many liquidity proxies often used in the liquidity literature, both displaying mean-reverting behavior, but characterized by very different ...

Synoptic climatology of southern Indian Ocean and paleoclimate proxy interpretation

2021
<p>Weather systems in the southern Indian Ocean drive synoptic-scale precipitation, temperature and wind variability in East Antarctica, sub-Antarctic islands and southern Australia.  Over seasonal to decadal timescales, the mean condition associated with combinations of these synoptic weather patterns (e.g., extratropical ...

Proxy: an interpreter for rapid prototyping

ACM SIGPLAN Notices, 1992
Proxy is an interpreter for a rapid prototyping language with C/C++ like syntax based on modelling software using data structures such as sets, maps, sequences, and objects. It allows the developer to make incremental changes to a design and test them immediately."The hardest single part of building a software system is deciding precisely what to build"

Interpreting Climate Proxies from Tree-rings

2004
Trees, as long living plants, are governed by environmental and/or climate changes within their habitat. Their growth rings record to a large extent the temporal dynamics of these changes either directly or through tree physiological reactions. They render the highest time resolution thus far possible for environmental or climate reconstructions of the

Interpretation of pronouns in proxy counterfactuals

2016
This thesis focuses on the interpretation of pronouns, in particular as subjects of the consequent clauses of counterfactual conditionals. More specifically, the constructions under consideration have been termed proxy counterfactuals. They are characterized as identifying two individual-denoting expressions in such a way that a new, composite ...
