Lobbying and Political Risk Disclosure: Do Socially Responsible Firms Voluntarily Disclose More?

open access: yesBritish Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Drawing on theories of strategic communication, legitimacy, impression management and moral capital, this study investigates whether firms use political risk disclosure to offset negative perceptions associated with corporate lobbying. Using a sample of 10,120 observations from 1362 US firms between 2002 and 2018, we find that firms with ...

Provenance Analysis Based on Cluster In‐Betweenness and Support Vector Machines: Identifying Migrant Candidates Using Multi‐Isotope Fingerprints

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Provenance reconstruction using strontium and lead stable isotopes can produce complex multidimensional fingerprints, challenging traditional methods. Identifying nonlocals, who migrated between sites, is a major task. Migrants are identifiable by divergent multi‐isotope fingerprints due to isotopic mixing between origin and destination sites.

Klasifikasi Kendaraan Menggunakan Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) dan Fuzzy Cluster K Means (FCM)

open access: yesJurnal EECCIS (Electrics, Electronics, Communications, Controls, Informatics, Systems), 2015
This paper describes how to record a moving object and save as new video files (* .avi), then filtering the moving objects (Vehicles) by using a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) with 2 types of distribution, i.e. Bacground and Foreground distribution.

ReMoDe – Recursive modality detection in distributions of ordinal data

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The detection of the number of modes in distributions of ordinal data is relevant for applied researchers across disciplines, from uncovering polarization to detecting incidence groups in clinical symptom scales. Yet, established modality detection methods are either purely descriptive or not developed for ordinal data.

Variational Bayesian Gaussian mixture model for off‐grid DOA estimation

open access: yesElectronics Letters
Wireless signals are commonly subject to diverse and complex noise interference. The typical assumption of Gaussian white noise often oversimplifies the noise, resulting in reduced accuracy in estimating the direction of arrival (DOA), especially in ...

Non‐Rigid 3D Shape Correspondences: From Foundations to Open Challenges and Opportunities

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Estimating correspondences between deformed shape instances is a long‐standing problem in computer graphics; numerous applications, from texture transfer to statistical modelling, rely on recovering an accurate correspondence map. Many methods have thus been proposed to tackle this challenging problem from varying perspectives, depending on ...

L3 Regressive Transfer: A Study of Null Objects in the Basque and Spanish Grammars of Advanced L3 English Speakers

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Regressive transfer has been a subject that has not been extensively researched in the field of third language acquisition. This study aims to examine the extent to which a highly advanced knowledge of a third language (L3) affects the first language (L1) and the second language (L2) of early bilinguals in light of the Differential Stability ...

A study on robot force control based on the GMM/GMR algorithm fusing different compensation strategies

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurorobotics
To address traditional impedance control methods' difficulty with obtaining stable forces during robot-skin contact, a force control based on the Gaussian mixture model/Gaussian mixture regression (GMM/GMR) algorithm fusing different compensation ...
