Designing Governance for ESG: Incentive and Oversight Complementarities in Corporate Sustainability Performance

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how internal governance design supports credible ESG performance by distinguishing between Incentive and Oversight Architectures. Using 13,993 firm‐year observations of US nonfinancial firms from 2018 to 2024, we estimate fixed effects and two‐step system GMM models.

Combining Deep Image Prior and Second-Order Generalized Total Variance for Image Denoising

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2023
Deep image prior is a classical unsupervised deep learning method that does not require plenty of training samples, because in some practical applications, like medical imaging, collecting tons of training samples is not always viable.

Numerical and Experimental Evaluation of a Simplified Lateral Spring Formulation for Rocking Structures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rocking podium isolation systems have gained significant research interest as a method of limiting seismic demands on superstructures and eliminating residual post‐earthquake drifts through self‐centring behaviour. However, while numerous models of varying complexity, including analytical, phenomenological, and physical formulations, have been

An Augmented Lagrangian‐Based Approach to the Oseen Problem [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Scientific Computing, 2006
We describe an effective solver for the discrete Oseen problem based on an augmented Lagrangian formulation of the corresponding saddle point system. The proposed method is a block triangular preconditioner used with a Krylov subspace iteration like BiCGStab.

Threshold Asymmetric Conditional Autoregressive Range (TACARR) Model

open access: yesJournal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper introduces a Threshold Asymmetric Conditional Autoregressive Range (TACARR) model for analyzing the daily price ranges of financial assets. The proposed formulation assumes that the conditional expected range switches between two regimes, representing upward and downward market states, with the disturbance distribution also allowed ...

A fast constrained image segmentation algorithm

open access: yesResults in Applied Mathematics, 2020
Normalized cut or Ncut has been one of the most widely used models for image processing. A constraint can also be included in the framework of Ncut to represent a priori information for an effective image segmentation.

Performance of Free‐Running Cardiac and Respiratory Motion‐Resolved Whole‐Heart 5D MRI in Congenital Heart Disease Patients Using a Gadolinium Enhanced Fast‐Interrupted Steady‐State Sequence

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The performance of 5D imaging in CHD has been previously demonstrated using ferumoxytol rather than gadolinium. Purpose To evaluate the performance of gadolinium enhanced 5D MRI relative to 2D and 3D MRI in CHD patients. Study Type Retrospective.
