Testing the stability of the benefit transfer function for discrete choice contingent valuation data [PDF]
, 2007 We examine the stability of the benefit transfer function across 42 recreational forests in the British Isles. A working definition of reliable function transfer is put forward, and a suitable statistical test is provided.

Artin L-Functions for Abelian Extensions of Imaginary Quadratic Fields [PDF]
, 2005 Let F be an abelian extension of an imaginary quadratic field K with Galois group G. We form the Galois-equivariant L-function of the motive h(Spec F)(j) where the Tate twists j are negative integers.

Greedy randomized dispatching heuristics for the single machine scheduling problem with quadratic earliness and tardiness penalties [PDF]
In this paper, we present greedy randomized dispatching heuristics for the single machine scheduling problem with quadratic earliness and tardiness costs, and no machine idle time. The several heuristic versions differ, on the one hand, on the strategies

A Comet Assay for DNA Damage and Repair After Exposure to Carbon-Ion Beams or X-rays in
Dose-Response, 2018 Ionizing radiation (IR) can result in serious genomic instability and genotoxicity by causing DNA damage. Carbon ion (CI) beams and X-rays are typical IRs and possess high-linear energy transfer (LET) and low-LET, respectively.
