TL;DR: The doctrinal research methodology developed intuitively within the common law as discussed by the authors, a research method at the core of practice, and there was no need to justify or classify it within a broader research framework.
Abstract: The practitioner lawyer of the past had little need to reflect on process. The doctrinal research methodology developed intuitively within the common law — a research method at the core of practice. There was no need to justify or classify it within a broader research framework. Modern academic lawyers are facing a different situation. At a time when competition for limited research funds is becoming more intense, and in which interdisciplinary work is highly valued and non-lawyers are involved in the assessment of grant applications, lawyer-applicants who engage in doctrinal research need to be able to explain their methodology more clearly. Doctrinal scholars need to be more open and articulate about their methods. These methods may be different in different contexts. This paper examines the doctrinal method used in legal research and its place in recent research dialogue. Some commentators are of the view that the doctrinal method is simply scholarship rather than a separate research methodology. Richard Posner even suggests that law is ‘not a field with a distinct methodology, but an amalgam of applied logic, rhetoric, economics and familiarity with a specialized vocabulary and a particular body of texts, practices, and institutions ...’.1 Therefore, academic lawyers are beginning to realise that the doctrinal research methodology needs clarification for those outside the legal profession and that a discussion about the standing and place of doctrinal research compared to other methodologies is required.

TL;DR: A fast algorithm that can be used for estimating the parameters of a quadratic frequency modulated (FM) signal and is seen to be optimal, whereas the phase parameters are, in general, suboptimal.
Abstract: This paper describes a fast algorithm that can be used for estimating the parameters of a quadratic frequency modulated (FM) signal. The proposed algorithm is fast in that it requires only one-dimensional (1-D) maximizations. The optimal maximum likelihood method, by contrast, requires a three-dimensional (3-D) maximization, which can only be realized with an exhaustive 3-D grid search. Asymptotic statistical results are derived for all the estimated parameters. The amplitude estimate is seen to be optimal, whereas the phase parameters are, in general, suboptimal. Of the four phase parameter estimates, two approach optimality as the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) tends to infinity. The other two have mean-square errors that are within 50% of the theoretical lower bounds for high SNR. Simulations are provided to support the theoretical results. Extensions to multiple components and higher order FM signals are also discussed.

01 Feb 1997TL;DR: There is a wide variety of optical instruments where the human eye forms an integral part of the overall system as discussed by the authors, and this book provides a detailed description of the visual ergonomics of such instruments.
Abstract: There is a wide variety of optical instruments where the human eye forms an integral part of the overall system. This book provides a detailed description of the visual ergonomics of such instruments. The book begins with a section on image formation and basic optical components. The various optical instruments that can be adequately described using geometrical optics are then discussed, followed by a section on diffraction and interference, and the instruments based on these effects. There are separate sections devoted to ophthalmic instruments and aberration theory, with a final section covering visual ergonomics in depth. Containing many problems and solutions, this book will be of great use to undergraduate and graduate students of optometry, optical design, optical engineering, and visual science, and to professionals working in these and related fields.
