Graphical Bayesian models in multivariate expert judgements and conditional external Bayesianity [PDF]

open access: yes
This thesis addresses the multivariate version of the group decision problem (French, 1985), where the opinions about the possible values of n random variables in a problem, expressed as subjective conditional probability density functions of the k ...

Robust Tests of Forecast Accuracy for Factor‐Augmented Regressions With an Application to the Novel EA‐MD‐QD Dataset

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present four novel tests of equal predictive accuracy and encompassing á Pitarakis (2023, 2025) for factor‐augmented regressions. Factors are estimated using cross‐section averages (CAs) of grouped series and our theoretical findings are empirically relevant: asymptotic normality, robustness to an overspecification of the number of factors,

Merits and drawbacks of variance targeting in GARCH models

open access: yes
Variance targeting estimation is a technique used to alleviate the numerical difficulties encountered in the quasi-maximum likelihood (QML) estimation of GARCH models.

Zero-one IP problems: Polyhedral descriptions & cutting plane procedures

open access: yes, 1994
A systematic way for tightening an IP formulation is by employing classes of linear inequalities that define facets of the convex hull of the feasible integer points of the respective problems.

Improving the Finite Sample Estimation of Average Treatment Effects Using Double/Debiased Machine Learning With Propensity Score Calibration

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Double/debiased machine learning (DML) uses for estimating an average treatment effect (ATE) a double‐robust score function that relies on the prediction of nuisance functions, such as the propensity score, which is the probability of treatment assignment given covariates.

Convexity in quasi-metric spaces

open access: yes, 2012
Includes abstract.Includes bibliographical references.The principal aim of this thesis is to investigate the existence of an injective hull in the categories of T-quasi-metric spaces and of T-ultra-quasi-metric spaces with nonexpansive ...

A Joint Test of Unconfoundedness and Common Trends

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We introduce an overidentification test of two alternative assumptions to identify the average treatment effect on the treated in a two‐period panel data setting: unconfoundedness and common trends. Under unconfoundedness, treatment assignment and post‐treatment outcomes are independent, conditional on control variables and pre‐treatment ...
