Electrode positions, transformation coordinates for ECG reconstruction from S-ICD vectors.

The article contains data pertaining to the reconstruction of an 8-lead ECG from 2 subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator vectors. The location of electrodes on the precordium required for the data collection are detailed; the flow chart for patient selection and exclusion is shown; the summary data of the root mean square error (RMSE) (in microvolts) and Pearson r for the ECG transformation all cases and the pearson correlation for all the leads measured and reconstructed leads are also shown. Detailed background, methodology and discussion can be found in the linked research article

Computer analysis of physiologic signals in a cardiovascular research laboratory

A comprehensive computer program which provides immediate computation and feedback has been developed for data acquisition and analysis of signals in a cardiovascular animal laboratory. The system is based on a microcomputer equipped with analog-to-digital converter and supports function modules which digitize, filter, and differentiate up to 8 simultaneously sampled cardiovascular signals. The program detects, analyses, and plots incoming and averaged beats. Beat-by-beat signal averaging for each channel is performed and cardiac cycles are partitioned automatically. For each cardiac and average cycle the amplitude at 6 physiologic fiducial markers are measured and derived calculations are made. Channel vs channel plots and loop area measurements are also computed and displayed. The computer algorithms have been shown to give accurate, precise, and reproducible results when tested on canine cardiovascular data. Also, it has been demonstrated that signal averaging is an appropriate analysis technique for cardiovascular signals.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/29539/1/0000627.pd

Vertical integration and firm boundaries : the evidence

Since Ronald H. Coase's (1937) seminal paper, a rich set of theories has been developed that deal with firm boundaries in vertical or input–output structures. In the last twenty-five years, empirical evidence that can shed light on those theories also has been accumulating. We review the findings of empirical studies that have addressed two main interrelated questions: First, what types of transactions are best brought within the firm and, second, what are the consequences of vertical integration decisions for economic outcomes such as prices, quantities, investment, and profits. Throughout, we highlight areas of potential cross-fertilization and promising areas for future work

A theoretical - empirical study of spatial pricing

The objective of this dissertation is to set forth an original theoretical framework which can explain and predict the effect of varying levels of demand and completion on spatial prices. But the properties of our model can be viewed and confirmed as important only by statistical examination, not by a priori assertion. To do this an operational model will be set forth which will be shown to fit spatial price data more accurately than does a previously existing model. But, in addition, the model must be practical from the standpoint of time and costs. It follows that not only must we investigate the claim of greater accuracy of our model, but we also must show the economic feasibility of our model. Only the can its superiority be firmly established. It is vital to observe that the objective of this study is not to present an empirical investigation of industrial price schedules in the United States. Such schedules would require a team of researchers involving costs probably running well into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. The specific goals of the dissertation, instead, are (1) to reformulate spatial price theory, (2) to construct an operational model through which data obtained from firms can be evaluated and understood, and (3) to indicate through some existing data and other data obtained by this writer that the model is truly operational. It is in the last context that selected applications of statistical tools used in analyzing data will be used and other shown to be utilizable. ..
