Testing Mean Stability of Heteroskedastic Time Series
ABSTRACT Time series models are often fitted to the data without preliminary checks for stability of the mean and variance, conditions that may not hold in much economic and financial data, particularly over long periods. Ignoring such shifts may result in fitting models with spurious dynamics that lead to unsupported and controversial conclusions ...

Distribution Regression with Sample Selection, with an Application to Wage Decompositions in the UK
We develop a distribution regression model under endogenous sample selection. This model is a semiparametric generalization of the Heckman selection model that accommodates much richer patterns of heterogeneity in the selection process and effect of the ...

Bayesian Nonparametric Sensitivity Analysis of Multiple Test Procedures Under Dependence
ABSTRACT This paper introduces a sensitivity analysis method for multiple testing procedures (MTPs) using marginal p$p$‐values. The method is based on the Dirichlet process (DP) prior distribution, specified to support the entire space of MTPs, where each MTP controls either the family‐wise error rate (FWER) or the false discovery rate (FDR) under ...

Estimating a Signal In the Presence of an Unknown Background
We describe a method for fitting distributions to data which only requires knowledge of the parametric form of either the signal or the background but not both. The unknown distribution is fit using a non-parametric kernel density estimator.

A class of directed acyclic graphs with mixed data types in mediation analysis
Abstract We propose a unified class of generalized structural equation models (GSEMs) with data of mixed types in mediation analysis, including continuous, categorical, and count variables. Such models extend substantially the classical linear structural equation model to accommodate many data types arising from the application of mediation analysis ...

Optimal No-regret Learning in Repeated First-price Auctions
We study online learning in repeated first-price auctions with censored feedback, where a bidder, only observing the winning bid at the end of each auction, learns to adaptively bid in order to maximize her cumulative payoff.

A New Version of Kumaraswamy Distribution With Estimations and Applications
In this article, the unit interval in the Kumaraswamy distribution is extended to double‐bounded interval. The proposed model is constituted by the transformation of a logistic random variable with a power parameter, flexible enough to fit a wide range of real‐life scenarios involving risk evaluation.

This study proposes statistical models for mitigating the risks associated with variable power sources by establishing a headroom to absorb prediction errors when PV power plants perform day‐ahead planning without the use of battery systems or intraday market procurement. Specifically, three models are proposed in this study.

AeroGP: Machine Learning How Aerosols Impact Regional Climate
Abstract Aerosol particles from both natural and anthropogenic sources play a critical role in the Earth's climate by interacting with solar radiation and clouds. Anthropogenic aerosol and precursor emissions have historically exerted a global cooling effect, which has partially offset the warming from concurrent greenhouse gas emissions.

Inference on Breakdown Frontiers
Given a set of baseline assumptions, a breakdown frontier is the boundary between the set of assumptions which lead to a specific conclusion and those which do not. In a potential outcomes model with a binary treatment, we consider two conclusions: First,
