An Integrated System for Assessing Stroke Risk [PDF]

IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine, 2007
The objective of this article is to present an integrated system for the assessment of risk of stroke based on two modules: 1) clinical risk factors and noninvasive investigations, and 2) carotid plaque texture analysis. The system supports the data collected from the Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis and Risk of Stroke (ACSRS) natural history study that ...

Exchange Risk and Market Integration

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2014
We investigate the impact of currency factor on market integration. We compare integration indices estimated from international asset pricing models with and without real exchange risk. The theoretical expectation implies the integration measures should be similar when global currency premium and the sum of global and local currency premiums are small.
