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 ...

Risks of ignoring uncertainty propagation in AI‐augmented security pipelines
Abstract The use of AI technologies is being integrated into the secure development of software‐based systems, with an increasing trend of composing AI‐based subsystems (with uncertain levels of performance) into automated pipelines. This presents a fundamental research challenge and seriously threatens safety‐critical domains.

Nonparametric inference for Poisson‐Laguerre tessellations
Abstract In this paper, we consider statistical inference for Poisson‐Laguerre tessellations in ℝd$$ {\mathbb{R}}^d $$. The object of interest is a distribution function F$$ F $$ which describes the distribution of the arrival times of the generator points.

Kernel Estimation for Panel Data with Heterogeneous Dynamics
This paper proposes nonparametric kernel-smoothing estimation for panel data to examine the degree of heterogeneity across cross-sectional units. We first estimate the sample mean, autocovariances, and autocorrelations for each unit and then apply kernel

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.

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.

Control Variables, Discrete Instruments, and Identification of Structural Functions
Control variables provide an important means of controlling for endogeneity in econometric models with nonseparable and/or multidimensional heterogeneity. We allow for discrete instruments, giving identification results under a variety of restrictions on

ABSTRACT Severe COVID‐19 is associated with increased prothrombotic and inflammatory responses, necessitating effective anticoagulation therapy. Novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are being explored as potential alternatives to low‐molecular‐weight heparin (LMWH).

Refuting causal relations for synchronized pathogen dynamics
Abstract Identifying causal relations is a critical challenge in the study of ecological systems, particularly for studying the spread of pathogens in host populations. Whether dealing with measles in humans, foot and mouth disease in livestock, or white‐nose syndrome in bats—understanding causal relations is essential for understanding the underlying ...
