A Jackknife Correction to a Test for Cointegration Rank

open access: yesEconometrics, 2015
This paper investigates the performance of a jackknife correction to a test for cointegration rank in a vector autoregressive system. The limiting distributions of the jackknife-corrected statistics are derived and the critical values of these ...

β-divergence loss for the kernel density estimation with bias reduced

open access: yesStatistical Theory and Related Fields, 2021
In this paper, we investigate the problem of estimating the probability density function. The kernel density estimation with bias reduced is nowadays a standard technique in explorative data analysis, there is still a big dispute on how to assess the ...

Animals Like Us: Leveraging the Negativity Bias in Anthropomorphism to Reduce Beef Consumption

open access: yesFoods, 2021
Our current work contributes to the literature of meat consumption reduction. Capitalizing on the inherent humanizing characteristic of anthropomorphism coupled with leveraging negativity bias, we created a novel approach to reduce meat-eating intention.

Position Determination for Moving Transmitter Using Single Station

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
A common case in location problem is that the terminal is unstable or moving. The classical methods construct equations related to the measurements observed at the individual receivers first, and then solves the problem to localize the source.

Ensemble‐based Reconstructed Forcing (ERF) for regional climate modeling: Attaining the performance at a fraction of cost

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2017
Multimodel ensemble (MME) is considered the most reliable for both present‐day and future climate simulations. However, the conventional MME approach can create physical inconsistencies between climate variables. It can also be computationally inhibiting

Belief in free will affects causal attributions when judging others' behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Free will is a cornerstone of our society, and psychological research demonstrates that questioning its existence impacts social behavior. ;In six studies, we tested whether believing in free will is related to the correspondence bias, which reflects ...

Reduction of taxonomic bias in diatom species data [PDF]

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, 2020
AbstractInconsistency in taxonomic identification and analyst bias impede the effective use of diatom data in regional and national stream and lake surveys. In this study, we evaluated the effect of existing protocols and a revised protocol on the precision of diatom species counts.
