Dynamic Spillovers Between FinTech, Blockchain, and Green Finance: A Quantile Connectedness Approach
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper explores how financial innovation and environmental sustainability intersect by analyzing spillovers between FinTech, blockchain energy use, and green finance. Using a Quantile Vector Autoregression (QVAR) framework, we examine weekly data from 2018 to 2024 across 11 digital, environmental, and macro‐financial indices.

Restricted Tweedie stochastic block models
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract The stochastic block model (SBM) is a widely used framework for community detection in networks, where the network structure is typically represented by an adjacency matrix. However, conventional SBMs are not directly applicable to an adjacency matrix that consists of nonnegative zero‐inflated continuous edge weights.

Common Fixed Point Theorems on Weakly Contractive and Nonexpansive Mappings
Fixed Point Theory and Applications, 2008 A family of commuting nonexpansive self-mappings, one of which is weakly contractive, are studied. Some convergence theorems are established for the iterations of types Krasnoselski-Mann, Kirk, and Ishikawa to approximate a common fixed point. The error

Predicting cervical cancer DNA methylation from genetic data using multivariate CMMP
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract Epigenetic modifications link the environment to gene expression and play a crucial role in tumour development. DNA methylation, in particular, is gaining attention in cancer research, including cervical cancer, the focus of this study.

Asymptotic properties of cross‐classified sampling designs
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract We investigate the family of cross‐classified sampling designs across an arbitrary number of dimensions. We introduce a variance decomposition that enables the derivation of general asymptotic properties for these designs and the development of straightforward and asymptotically unbiased variance estimators.

Bayesian inverse ensemble forecasting for COVID‐19
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract Variations in strains of COVID‐19 have a significant impact on the rate of surges and on the accuracy of forecasts of the epidemic dynamics. The primary goal for this article is to quantify the effects of varying strains of COVID‐19 on ensemble forecasts of individual “surges.” By modelling the disease dynamics with an SIR model, we solve the ...

A goodness‐of‐fit test for regression models with discrete outcomes
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract Regression models are often used to analyze discrete outcomes, but classical goodness‐of‐fit tests such as those based on the deviance or Pearson's statistic can be misleading or have little power in this context. To address this issue, we propose a new test, inspired by the work of Czado et al.

Jackknife bias‐corrected variance estimation for the generalized regression estimator
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract Commonly used variance estimators for the generalized regression estimator (GREG) are based on Taylor linearization and jackknife. Traditionally, a jackknife GREG variance estimator is obtained by jackknifing GREG, which consists of computing GREG from each of several subsamples of the parent sample, and estimating the variance of the parent ...

Non‐negative Gaussian estimation of variance components in random effects models
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract When used to estimate variance components (VCs), confidence intervals (CIs) can be truncated at zero, have a point estimate not in the quoted CI, be empty with positive probability, or be all‐inclusive. This is because they have conflicting dual roles, since they are considered to cover the parameter with a specified probability while also ...

A partial envelope approach for modelling multivariate spatial‐temporal data
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract In the new era of big data, modelling multivariate spatial‐temporal data is a challenging task due to both the high dimensionality of the features and complex associations among the responses across different locations and time points.
