Does this evidence, the state-wise distribution of MacArthur support
the theses of Creative Class ? Of Retro vs Metro ?
What does it take to win ? For example, Koller Daphne's
really interesting and long overdue work devised new strategies and
algorithms for making decisions in complex systems under
uncertain conditions, and applying statistical reasoning to
classical problems in artificial intelligence.
CHICAGO (September 28, 2004) – The John D. and Catherine T.
MacArthur Foundation today named 23 new MacArthur Fellows for 2004.
Each will receive $500,000 in “no strings attached” support over the
next five years.
