We present a theory of decision by sampling (DbS) in which, in contrast with traditional models, there are no underlying psychoeconomic scales. Instead, we assume that an attribute’s subjective value is constructed from a series of binary, ordinal ...

A New All-Season Passive Sampling System for Monitoring H2S in Air
A new Maxxam All-Season Passive Sampling system for monitoring H2S in air has been developed. This passive sampling system employs the same approaches as the Maxxam All-Season Passive Sampling Systems for monitoring SO2, NO2, and O3 reported previously ...

Quantum Metropolis Sampling [PDF]
The original motivation to build a quantum computer came from Feynman who envisaged a machine capable of simulating generic quantum mechanical systems, a task that is believed to be intractable for classical computers.
