Patents, Venture Capital, and Software Start-Ups
Ronald J. Mann,Thomas W. Sager +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the relation between the patenting behavior of startup firms and the progress of those firms through the venture capital cycle and found significant and robust positive correlations between patenting and several variables measuring the firm's performance.

Characterization of a Ranked-Set Sample with Application to Estimating Distribution Functions
S. Lynne Stokes,Thomas W. Sager +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the empirical distribution function of a ranked-set sample is unbiased and has greater precision than that from a random sample, and the null distribution of a Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic was derived for the case in which perfect ranking is possible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Statistical profile estimation in database systems
TL;DR: This paper describes a model of a database of profile, relates this model to estimating the cost of database operations, and surveys methods of estimating profiles.

Boronic acid based peptidic receptors for pattern-based saccharide sensing in neutral aqueous media, an application in real-life samples
TL;DR: A chemosensor array for saccharide derivatives, fully operational in aqueous media at physiological pH, has been developed and is reported herein and augurs well for use in other real-world samples involving saccharides as well as for sensing other desired analytes.
