Background: The clinical identification of hippocampal sclerosis (HS) is important in predicting surgical outcomes in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). In cases where gross hippocampal sclerosis is not identifiable clinically, a more detailed analysis of hippocampal subfields using ultra-high-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may reveal areas of abnormality, which was the focus of our study. Methods: Patients (N=13) with drug-resistant TLE (9 no-HS, 4 HS) and 20 age-matched healthy controls were scanned and compared using a 7T MRI protocol. Using a manual segmentation scheme to delineate hippocampal subfields, subfield-specific volume changes were studied between the two groups. In addition, radiological patient assessment at 7T was correlated with measured subfield changes. Results: Volumetry of the hippocampus at 7T in HS patients revealed significant ipsilateral subfield losses in CA1 and CA4DG. Volumetry also uncovered subfield volume losses in 33% of no-HS patients, which had not been detected conventionally. Furthermore, 89% of no-HS patients showed abnormality (internal architecture or size) at 7T, identified by radiologists blinded to the patient’s initial classification. Conclusions: These preliminary findings indicate that hippocampal subfield volumetry assessed at 7T may be superior to conventional visual inspection by a neuroradiologist in the identification of hippocampal pathologies in TLE.

This paper proposes a new method for estimating Automatic Identification System (AIS) coverage empirically from received transmissions. The method is appropriate for stationary coverage assets, as distinct from aircraft and satellites. The key idea behind the method is to interpolate probabilistically between AIS reports in order to reconstruct where the missed transmissions might have occurred. These hypothetical missed transmissions then supplement the received ones in a coverage estimate based on a Bayesian treatment of a binomial model of reception. The final estimate of the coverage is implemented over a spatial grid. The method is demonstrated on simulated AIS data and was found to have lower mean squared error than a previously published method. Assumptions and potential weaknesses of the new method are discussed.

We present a method for addressing probabilistic queries about the location of a vessel in the time interval between two position reports, such as from the Automatic Identification System (AIS). The heart of the method is the random generation of physically feasible paths connecting the two reports. The method empowers operators to answer probabilistic questions about any characteristic of the unknown true path. For illustrative purposes, we demonstrate the use of the method to identify which of several vessels is the most likely perpetrator, in a fictitious scenario in which illegal dumping of waste matter has taken place.

This paper extends the affine class of term structure models to describe the joint dynamics of exchange rates and interest rates. In particular, the issue of how to reconcile the low volatility of interest rates with the high volatility of exchange rates is addressed. The incomplete market approach of introducing exchange rate volatility that is orthogonal to both interest rates and the pricing kernels is shown to be infeasible in the affine setting. Models in which excess exchange rate volatility is orthogonal to interest rates but not orthogonal to the pricing kernels are proposed and validated via Kalman filter estimation of maximal 5-factor models for 6 country pairs.

Results from a large-scale, capture—recapture study of humpback whales Megaptera novaeangliae in the North Atlantic show that migration timing is influenced by feeding ground origin. No significant differences were observed in the number of individuals from any feeding area that were re-sighted in the common breeding area in the West Indies. However, there was a relationship between the proportion (logit transformed) of West Indies sightings and longitude (r2=0.97, F1,3=98.27, P=0.0022) suggesting that individuals feeding farther to the east are less likely to winter in the West Indies. A relationship was also detected between sighting date in the West Indies and feeding area. Mean sighting dates in the West Indies for individuals identified in the Gulf of Maine and eastern Canada were significantly earlier than those for animals identified in Greenland, Iceland and Norway (9.97 days, t179=3.53, P=0.00054). There was also evidence for sexual segregation in migration; males were seen earlier on the breeding ground than were females (6.63 days, t105=1.98, P=0.050). This pattern was consistently observed for animals from all feeding areas; a combined model showed a significant effect for both sex (F1=5.942, P=0.017) and feeding area (F3=4.756, P=0.0038). The temporal difference in occupancy of the West Indies between individuals from different feeding areas, coupled with sexual differences in migratory patterns, presents the possibility that there are reduced mating opportunities between individuals from different high latitude areas.

Summary
Introduction
Among Kenneth Arrow's many highly significant and widely cited contributions to economic science are his path-breaking essays on the two fundamental efficiency theorems of welfare economics (Arrow, 1951), on the role of securities in the allocation of risk-bearing (Arrow, 1953; 1964), and the joint article with Gérard Debreu (Arrow and Debreu, 1954) on the existence of general competitive or Walrasian equilibrium. There is also the joint monograph by Arrow and Hahn (1971). Of these, the first article uses what has since become the standard definition of Walrasian equilibrium, possibly modified by lump-sum redistribution of wealth, and related equilibrium to Pareto efficient allocations. The second article defines what it means to have a complete set of securities markets in a sequence economy with uncertainty. The third proves the existence of equilibrium under what have since become almost standard assumptions. And the monograph with Frank Hahn explores not only the main ideas in general competitive analysis, but also much of the progress in making it applicable to real economic phenomena.
An important feature of Arrow and Debreu (1954) is its conscious use of explicitly game-theoretic ideas, previously found in the related paper by Debreu (1952). A generalization of the usual notion of a game is involved, since there is an auctioneer whose strategy choice determines the price vector. Given this choice, agents are then constrained to choose net trades within their budget sets. Thus the strategic choice of the auctioneer limits the strategies the other players are allowed to choose.

Summary
… I still believe that it is helpful to speak as if inter-personal comparisons of utility rest upon scientific foundations – that is, upon observation or introspection. … I still think, when I make interpersonal comparisons … that my judgments are more like judgments of value than judgments of verifiable fact. Nevertheless, to those of my friends who think differently, I would urge that, in practice, our difference is not very important. They think that propositions based upon the assumption of equality are essentially part of economic science. I think that the assumption of equality comes from outside, and that its justification is more ethical than scientific. But we all agree that it is fitting that such assumptions should be made and their implications explored with the aid of the economist's technique.
Robbins (1938, pp. 640–641)Introduction
Background
Personal ethics should be about living a good life (cf. Williams, 1985), ethics in public policy about making good public decisions, and ethics in economics about choosing economic policies that improve the allocation of resources. This brings ethics very close to normative decision theory. Indeed, ethics may even become, at one and the same time, both an application and an ideal form of that theory.
Many approaches to ethical decision making have received the attention of moral philosophers and practical people. In my view, none is as satisfactory as an idealized form of utilitarianism based upon an ethical concept of utility.

Summary
A consequence cannot make evil an action that was good nor good an action that was evil.
St. Thomas AquinasThat the morality of actions depends on the consequences which they tend to produce, is the doctrine of rational persons of all schools; that the good or evil of these consequences is measured solely by pleasure or pain, is all of the doctrine of the school of utility, which is peculiar to it.
J. S. Mill (from Warnock, 1962, p. 120)It must always be the duty of every agent to do that one, among all the actions which he can do on any given occasion, whose total consequences will have the greatest intrinsic value.
G. E. Moore (1912, p. 121)Motivation and outline
Introduction
Ever since the publication of the first edition of Arrow's Social choice and individual values, controversy has surrounded several of the conditions that he showed would lead inexorably to a dictatorship. Some of the controversy was discussed in the second edition (Arrow 1963). Much has happened since then, largely reflected in Sen (1970, 1982, 1984, 1985) as well as Arrow (1983).
Two conditions in particular were often relaxed in an attempt to escape from dictatorship. One was independence of irrelevant alternatives, and a second was ordinality of the social choice function.

Summary
Introduction
It is no accident that a large number of the essays in this volume are by economists, since they appear to have made far more use of utilitarianism than have other social scientists. Indeed, the whole study of welfare economics is founded more or less explicitly on utilitarian ideas, even when economists deal only with the idea of Pareto efficiency – when no individual can be made better off without making someone else worse off. In addition, economists appear to have come face to face with a number of challenging issues in applying what amounts to utilitarian techniques to specific economic problems. Examples of such issues are changing tastes, the valuation of life and limb, uncertainty, and incompletely informed individuals. Perhaps one may say that it has almost become one of the hallmarks of a good economist to try to extend the basic utilitarian framework of welfare economics to treat such issues.
In this essay I am going to present an almost entirely verbal and relatively non-technical discussion of the problems which arise in trying to extend utilitarianism to deal with such issues. My concern will be to try to see what questions utilitarianism can be extended to handle sucessfully, and what questions cause great difficulty. Because I am an economist, the ethical issues I shall be discussing will mostly be at least closely related to economic issues, i.e. the problem of allocating scarce resources, and the associated question of the proper distribution of income.
