  abstract  = {The recent development of various methods of modulation
               such as PCM and PPM which exchange bandwidth for
               signal-to-noise ratio has intensified the interest in a
               general theory of communication. A basis for such a
               theory is contained in the important papers of Nyquist
               and Hartley on this subject. In the present paper we
               will extend the theory to include a number of new
               factors, in particular the effect of noise in the
               channel, and the savings possible due to the statistical
               structure of the original message and due to the nature
               of the final destination of the information.},
  annotation = {Founding text of information theory. The source-coding
                and channel-coding theorems articulated here remain
                the backbone of modern telecommunications and data
                compression, and Shannon's probabilistic framing of
                information underpins much later work in statistical
                inference and machine learning. The two-part structure
                (discrete vs.\ continuous channels) still shapes how
                the subject is taught.}

  volume    = {89},
  number    = {3},
  pages     = {634--647},
  abstract  = {We examine some issues in the estimation of
               time-series cross-section models, calling into question
               the conclusions of many published studies, particularly
               in the field of comparative political economy. We show
               that the generalized least squares approach of Parks
               produces standard errors that lead to extreme
               overconfidence, often underestimating variability by
               50\% or more. We also provide an alternative estimator
               of the standard errors that is correct when the error
               structures show complications found in this type of
               model. Monte Carlo analysis shows that these
               ``panel-corrected standard errors'' perform well. The
               utility of our approach is demonstrated via a
               reanalysis of one ``social democratic corporatist''
               model.}
