Testing Hypotheses of Covariate Effects on Topics of Discourse
Statistical Analysis and Data Mining: An ASA Data Science Journal, Volume 19, Issue 2, April 2026.ABSTRACT We introduce an approach to topic modeling with document‐level covariates that remains tractable in the face of large text corpora. This is achieved by de‐emphasizing the role of parameter estimation in an underlying probabilistic model, assuming instead that the data come from a fixed but unknown distribution whose statistical functionals are

Bi‐Directional Recurrent Attentional Topic Model Using Flexible Priors
Computational Intelligence, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.ABSTRACT This article presents extensions to the Bi‐Directional Recurrent Attentional Topic Model (bi‐RATM) framework, a Dirichlet‐based model used in text document analysis. The allocation of topics to a sentence in a document is determined by its content as well as the topics of its neighboring sentences, and the weighting is typically variable. Many

Race‐related research in economics
Economica, Volume 93, Issue 370, Page 403-438, April 2026.Abstract Issues of racial justice and economic inequalities between racial and ethnic groups have risen to the top of public debate. Economists' ability to contribute to these debates is based on the body of race‐related research. We study the volume and content of race‐related research in economics.

Multi‐Task Learning for Airport Surface Surveillance: A Review
Expert Systems, Volume 43, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT The rapid growth of air transportation has surpassed the capabilities of traditional airport surveillance methods, such as visual observation and auxiliary equipment (e.g., ADS‐B, MLAT, radar), which struggle to provide all‐area, all‐weather situation awareness.

Financial Time Series Uncertainty: A Review of Probabilistic AI Applications
Journal of Economic Surveys, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 915-953, April 2026.ABSTRACT Probabilistic machine learning models offer a distinct advantage over traditional deterministic approaches by quantifying both epistemic uncertainty (stemming from limited data or model knowledge) and aleatoric uncertainty (due to inherent randomness in the data), along with full distributional forecasts.

Agents' Behavior and Interest Rate Model Optimization in DeFi Lending
Mathematical Finance, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 374-396, April 2026.ABSTRACT Contrasting sharply with traditional money, bond, and bond futures markets, where interest rates emerge organically from participant interactions, DeFi lending platforms employ rule‐based interest rates that are algorithmically set. Thus, the selection of an effective interest rate model (IRM) is paramount for the success of a lending protocol.
