Exploratory Data Modeling Of Traumatic Brain Injury, Martin Zwick Jun 2015

Exploratory Data Modeling Of Traumatic Brain Injury, Martin Zwick

Systems Science Faculty Publications and Presentations

A short presentation of an analysis of data from Dr. Megan Preece on traumatic brain injury, the first in a series of planned secondary analyses of multiple TBI data sets. The analysis employs the systems methodology of reconstructability analysis (RA), utilizing both variable- and state-based and both neutral and directed models. The presentation explains RA and illustrates the results it can obtain. Unlike the confirmatory approach standard to most data analyses, this methodology is designed for exploratory modeling. It thus allows the discovery of unanticipated associations among variables, including multi-variable interaction effects of unknown form. It offers the opportunity for …

A Theory Of Name Resolution, Pierre Néron, Andrew Tolmach, Eelco Visser, Guido Wachsmuth

Computer Science Faculty Publications and Presentations

We describe a language-independent theory for name binding and resolution, suitable for programming languages with complex scoping rules including both lexical scoping and modules. We formulate name resolution as a two-stage problem. First a language-independent scope graph is constructed using language-specific rules from an abstract syntax tree. Then references in the scope graph are resolved to corresponding declarations using a language-independent resolution process. We introduce a resolution calculus as a concise, declarative, and language- independent specification of name resolution. We develop a resolution algorithm that is sound and complete with respect to the calculus. Based on the resolution calculus we …
