Multifactorial Screening for Fine‐Scale Selection of CCS Industrial Clusters and Hubs in Brazil

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As Brazil moves toward implementing its decarbonization commitments, carbon capture and storage (CCS) hubs are emerging as a key pathway for large‐scale CO2 abatement in hard‐to‐abate sectors. This paper presents a multifactorial, data‐driven framework to screen and prioritize potential CCS industrial clusters and hubs across Brazilian regions,

Creation of a Landslide Susceptibility Map Using Short‐Term Data From the July 2018 Heavy Rainfall in Southern Hiroshima Prefecture

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
This work advances landslide susceptibility mapping by incorporating short‐term trigger data with landscape susceptibility mapping. We also examine the importance of downsampling, watershed delineation and geospatial correlations in evaluating outcomes.

Guidance or Misdirection? Unpacking the Role of Feedback in Health Preference Assessments

Health Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the impact of providing feedback to respondents on a dominance‐structured choice task on subsequent choice behavior in a discrete choice experiment (DCE). The DCE was conducted among 626 patients with heart failure. Respondents were given a dominance‐structured choice task in which two devices (Device A and Device B ...

Alternative Price Dynamics and Valuation of Flexible Strategies

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this article, we study the optimal operational strategy of production projects. We investigate different underlying price models and determine the optimal barriers of transition to suspension, recovery, or irreversible abandonment of productive activity.

Joint Estimation and Bandwidth Selection in Partially Parametric Models

Journal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a single‐step approach to estimating a model with both a known nonlinear parametric component and an unknown nonparametric component. We study the large sample behavior of a simultaneous optimization routine that estimates both the parameter vector of the parametric component and the bandwidth vector used to smooth the unknown ...

A safe reinforcement learning approach for autonomous navigation of mobile robots in dynamic environments

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract When deploying mobile robots in real‐world scenarios, such as airports, train stations, hospitals, and schools, collisions with pedestrians are intolerable and catastrophic. Motion safety becomes one of the most fundamental requirements for mobile robots.

From Reactive to Proactive Volatility Modeling With Hemisphere Neural Networks

Journal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We revisit maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) for macroeconomic density forecasting through a novel neural network architecture with dedicated mean and variance hemispheres. Our architecture features several key ingredients making MLE work in this context.

What Explains International Interest Rate Co‐Movement?

Journal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The international co‐movement of interest rates reflects correlated business‐cycle fluctuations, largely driven by demand shocks. Monetary policy in advanced economies follows domestic mandates—inflation and the output gap—and does not respond to foreign policy shocks.

The Impact of Vision Problems on Households' Incomes: Evidence From the 2019 and 2022 Rounds of the Turkey Health Survey

Journal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vision problems reduce individuals' quality of life, and they also reduce their productivity as workers and consequently decrease their incomes. Most vision problems can be corrected with properly fitted eyeglasses, but many people with vision problems do not have such eyeglasses.

Post‐Processed CMIP6 Climate Projections for Hydro‐Environmental Risk Assessment in the Middle East and Central Asia

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Estimating water resources is important for regional climate impact analysis and risk estimation. The Middle East and Central Asia have largely reached the limit of sustainably usable water across their river basins and ecosystems. Strategies designed to mitigate environmental risks require a reliable estimation of water availability trends.
