期待“全考古学”时代的到来——兼评《牛河梁红山文化遗址建筑设计思想研究》

由于考古学产生约两百年来一直被定义为研究“物质遗存”，同时又缺乏探讨遗迹、器物纹饰内涵的理论与方法，导致考古学在基本理论、方法上与其目标追求长期陷入困境与悖论，而浩如烟海的纹饰及一些遗迹的内涵始终处于考古学的边缘不得解读。故基本教义的考古学从理论、方法到实践都是残缺不全的。因此提出“全考古学”概念，主张将考古学研究的对象定义为“文化遗存”，同时将考古学研究划分为三个阶段：第一阶段“田野考古”及资料整理；第二阶段“室内考古”即读懂材料；第三阶段，探究社会历史发展规律等。“全考古学”在研究方法上是全方位的、立体交叉式的；当前，我们应该大力倡导和支持“全考古学”研究。董婕、朱成杰著《牛河梁红山文化遗址建筑设计思想研究》正是“全考古学”第二阶段的典型作品。     

A revisit to test the equality of variances of several populations

We revisit the problem of testing homoscedasticity (or, equality of variances) of several normal populations which has applications in many statistical analyses, including design of experiments. The standard text books and widely used statistical packages propose a few popular tests including Bartlett's test, Levene's test and a few adjustments of the latter. Apparently, the popularity of these tests have been based on limited simulation study carried out a few decades ago. The traditional tests, including the classical likelihood ratio test (LRT), are asymptotic in nature, and hence do not perform well for small sample sizes. In this paper we propose a simple parametric bootstrap (PB) modification of the LRT, and compare it against the other popular tests as well as their PB versions in terms of size and power. Our comprehensive simulation study bursts some popularly held myths about the commonly used tests and sheds some new light on this important problem. Though most popular statistical software/packages suggest using Bartlette's test, Levene's test, or modified Levene's test among a few others, our extensive simulation study, carried out under both the normal model as well as several non-normal models clearly shows that a PB version of the modified Levene's test (which does not use the F-distribution cut-off point as its critical value), and Loh's exact test are the “best” performers in terms of overall size as well as power.

A three-stage variable selection method for supersaturated designs

A supersaturated design (SSD) is a design whose run size is not enough for estimating all main effects. Such a design is commonly used in screening experiments to screen active effects based on the effect sparsity principle. Traditional approaches, such as the ordinary stepwise regression and the best subset variable selection, may not be appropriate in this situation. In this article, a new variable selection method is proposed based on the idea of staged dimensionality reduction. Simulations and several real data studies indicate that the newly proposed method is more effective than the existing data analysis methods.     

Assumption-aware tools and agency; an interrogation of the primary artifacts of the program evaluation and design profession in working with complex evaluands and complex contexts

Like artisans in a professional guild, we evaluators create tools to suit our ever evolving practice. The tools we use as evaluators are the primary artifacts of our profession, reflect our practice and embody an amalgamation of paradigms and assumptions. With the increasing shifts in evaluation purposes from judging program worth to understanding how programs work, the evaluator’s role is changing to that of facilitating stakeholders in a learning process. This involves clarifying purposes and choices, as well as unearthing critical assumptions. In such a role, evaluators become major tool-users and begin to innovate with small refinements or produce completely new tools to fit a specific challenge or context.We interrogate the form and function of 12 tools used by evaluators when working with complex evaluands and complex contexts. The form is described in terms of traditional qualitative techniques and particular characteristics of the elements, use and presentation of each tool. Then the function of each tool is analyzed with respect to articulating assumptions and affecting the agency of evaluators and stakeholders in complex contexts.     

Optimal designs for additive mixture model with heteroscedastic errors

This paper presents a study of D- and A-optimality of direct sum designs for additive mixture models when the errors are heteroscedastic. Sufficient conditions are given so that D- and A-optimal designs for additive mixture models can be constructed from the D- and A-optimal designs for homogeneous models in sub-mixture systems.

为了寻找三维用户界面设计策略，在归纳2维（2D）与2．5维（2．5D）用户界面包含的内容与设计策略的基础上，从3维（3D）用户界面的交互任务、信息呈现和用户搜索行为三方面进行了分析，整合了用户需求、空间行为、空间任务，创新性地构建了面向真3D空间的“需求-任务-层次模型”，为3D用户界面的构建提供了新的思路。此外，从细节层面对3D用户界面具体设计原则进行分析，提出了“信息呈现设计矩阵”，对3D用户界面设计具有一定的指导意义。     

Characterization of singular balanced fractional sm factorial designs derivable from balanced arrays with maximum number of constraints

An upper bound on the maximum number of constraints for s-symbol balanced arrays is derived. It is shown that balanced fractional s^m factorial designs derived from some balanced arrays with the maximum possible number of constraints become singular.

The economic design of multivariate binomial EWMA VSSI control charts

Since multi-attribute control charts have received little attention compared with multivariate variable control charts, this research is concerned with developing a new methodology to employ the multivariate exponentially weighted moving average (MEWMA) charts for m-attribute binomial processes; the attributes being the number of nonconforming items. Moreover, since the variable sample size and sampling interval (VSSI) MEWMA charts detect small process mean shifts faster than the traditional MEWMA, an economic design of the VSSI MEWMA chart is proposed to obtain the optimum design parameters of the chart. The sample size, the sampling interval, and the warning/action limit coefficients are obtained using a genetic algorithm such that the expected total cost per hour is minimized. At the end, a sensitivity analysis has been carried out to investigate the effects of the cost and the model parameters on the solution of the economic design of the VSSI MEWMA chart.
