GMM estimation with noncausal instruments under rational expectations [PDF]

open access: yes
There is hope for the generalized method of moments (GMM). Lanne and Saikkonen (2011) show that the GMM estimator is inconsistent, when the instruments are lags of noncausal variables.

MolMiner: Toward Controllable, Three‐Dimensional‐Aware, Fragment‐Based Molecular Design

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
MolMiner is a fragment‐based, geometry‐aware, and order‐agnostic generative model for molecular design with strong inductive biases. Using symmetry‐aware fragment assembly, dynamic three‐dimensional geometry, and multi‐property conditioning, MolMiner enables interpretable and controllable molecular generation.

Interactive Prompt‐Guided Robotic Grasping for Arbitrary Objects Based on Promptable Segment Anything Model and Force‐Closure Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
A laser pointer‐guided robotic grasping method for arbitrary objects based on promptable segment anything model and force‐closure analysis is presented. Grasp generation methods based on force‐closure analysis can calculate the optimal grasps for objects through their appearances. However, the limited visual perception ability makes robots difficult to

Food inflation pass‐through from agricultural imports in a small open economy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper develops a new framework for quantifying cost pass‐through in a small open economy by estimating firm‐level markup responses to agricultural import price shocks. We show theoretically that markup adjustments depend on firms' reliance on imported inputs and demand curvature, generating heterogeneous inflationary effects across firm ...

Testing interval forecasts: a GMM-based approach [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper proposes a new evaluation framework for interval forecasts. Our model free test can be used to evaluate intervals forecasts and High Density Regions, potentially discontinuous and/or asymmetric. Using a simple J-statistic, based on the moments

SVM speaker verification using session variability modelling and GMM supervectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This paper demonstrates that modelling session variability during GMM training can improve the performance of a GMM supervector SVM speaker verification system. Recently, a method of modelling session variability in GMM-UBM systems has led to significant
