Bayesian inference for dynamic Q matrices and attribute trajectories in hidden Markov diagnostic classification models

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Hidden Markov diagnostic classification models capture how students' cognitive attributes evolve over time. This paper introduces a Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for diagnostic classification models that jointly estimates time‐varying Q matrices, latent attributes, item parameters, attribute class proportions and transition ...

Special Numbers and Polynomials Including Their Generating Functions in Umbral Analysis Methods

open access: yesAxioms, 2018
In this paper, by applying umbral calculus methods to generating functions for the combinatorial numbers and the Apostol type polynomials and numbers of order k, we derive some identities and relations including the combinatorial numbers, the Apostol ...

Regularized reduced rank regression for mixed predictor and response variables

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper, we introduce the Generalized Mixed Regularized Reduced Rank Regression model (GMR4), an extension of the GMR3 model designed to improve performance in high‐dimensional settings. GMR3 is a regression method for a mix of numeric, binary and ordinal response variables, while also allowing for mixed‐type predictors through optimal ...

The U‐shaped effect of logic multiplicity on organizational performance: Evidence from the US healthcare industry

open access: yesEuropean Management Review, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigate the effect of logic multiplicity on organizational performance and hypothesize that logics may impact performance in view of their sheer number. We further propose that the market logic embedded in the for‐profit legal form can positively moderate the impact of multiple logics on performance.

Generating Functions for New Families of Combinatorial Numbers and Polynomials: Approach to Poisson–Charlier Polynomials and Probability Distribution Function

open access: yesAxioms, 2019
The aim of this paper is to construct generating functions for new families of combinatorial numbers and polynomials. By using these generating functions with their functional and differential equations, we not only investigate properties of these new ...

A Horse Race of Machine‐Learning Methods to Predict Banking Crises

open access: yesInternational Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To examine if one machine‐learning model can consistently elucidate financial vulnerabilities, both over time and across levels of development, this paper applies 13 machine‐learning algorithms to evaluate comparative forecasting performance across several banking crises.

The emotion regulation and recognition account of empathy‐related processes in autism: a multimodal, multilevel case–control study

open access: yesJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.
Background Recent evidence suggests that many autistic individuals exhibit heightened emotional responsiveness to others' affect despite greater difficulty recognizing others' emotions and accurately inferring their perspectives. This study introduces and preliminarily evaluates the Emotion Regulation and Recognition Account (ERRA), a model proposing ...

A joint model of cost and churn for the insurance industry

open access: yesJournal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract In insurance markets, claim costs are highly variable, heavy‐tailed, and difficult to predict. At the same time, policyholder retention and lapse behavior (customer churn) are critical determinants of long‐term profitability and solvency. Most existing models in the literature treat claim costs and lapses as independent, overlooking potential ...

q-Bernoulli numbers and q-Bernoulli polynomials revisited

open access: yesAdvances in Difference Equations, 2011
This paper performs a further investigation on the q-Bernoulli numbers and q-Bernoulli polynomials given by Acikgöz et al. (Adv Differ Equ, Article ID 951764, 9, 2010), some incorrect properties are revised.
