Fine‐tuning ab initio XANES spectra calculations using the Bayesian optimization algorithm
A Bayesian optimization technique is used to tune the FEFF and FDMNES packages and to improve matching between theoretical and experimental spectra. The tests were performed on monometallic Ni, Fe and Pd K‐edge XANES spectra using several different spectrum similarity metrics.Theoretical modeling of X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) spectra ...

Regularized reduced rank regression for mixed predictor and response variables
Abstract In this paper, we introduce the Generalized Mixed Regularized Reduced Rank Regression model (GMR4), an extension of the GMR3 model designed to improve performance in high‐dimensional settings. GMR3 is a regression method for a mix of numeric, binary and ordinal response variables, while also allowing for mixed‐type predictors through optimal ...

Establishing Shape Correspondences: A Survey
Abstract Shape correspondence between surfaces in 3D is a central problem in geometry processing, concerned with establishing meaningful relations between surfaces. While all correspondence problems share this goal, specific formulations can differ significantly: Downstream applications require certain properties that correspondences must satisfy ...

The Decentralization of Liquor Policies in Texas During the Post‐Prohibition Era
ABSTRACT We examine the decentralization of liquor policies in Texas during the Post‐Prohibition era using newly collected historical legislative roll call data. By combining these data with local referendum vote shares, we analyze both legislators' and constituents' preferences on liquor policy.

On Spatial Point Processes With Composition‐Valued Marks
Summary Methods for marked spatial point processes with scalar marks have seen extensive development in recent years. While the impressive progress in data collection and storage capacities has yielded an immense increase in spatial point process data with highly challenging non‐scalar marks, methods for their analysis are not equally well developed ...

Moving Aggregate Modified Autoregressive Copula‐Based Time Series Models (MAGMAR‐Copulas)
ABSTRACT Copula‐based time series models can model univariate and stationary time series in a flexible way by decomposing the joint distribution of consecutive observations into a copula and the stationary distribution. Implicitly, this approach assumes a finite Markov order. In reality, a time series may not follow the Markov property.

Tackling nonlinear price impact with linear strategies
Abstract Empirical studies in various contexts find that the price impact of large trades approximately follows a power law with exponent between 0.4 and 0.7. Yet, tractable formulas for the portfolios that trade off predictive trading signals, risk, and trading costs in an optimal manner are only available for quadratic costs corresponding to linear ...

Solving Stochastic Climate‐Economy Models: A Deep Least‐Squares Monte Carlo Approach
ABSTRACT Stochastic versions of recursive integrated climate‐economy assessment models are essential for studying and quantifying policy decisions under uncertainty. However, as the number of state variables and stochastic shocks increases, solving these models via deterministic grid‐based dynamic programming (e.g., value‐function iteration/projection ...

Inequality of Opportunity in a Multiperiod Framework
ABSTRACT This paper offers a simple model to evaluate and measure inequality of opportunity in a multiperiod framework, in which both circumstances and effort may change over time. We adopt a norm‐based approach and an axiomatic methodology: we first characterise two alternative definitions of a ‘fair distribution’, associated respectively with the ex ...

ABSTRACT I discuss conditions under which maximizing a proxy utility function is harmful and suggest this poses problems for applying decision theory.
