Persuasion in the political marketplace: How firms snitch on rivals to encourage regulatory enforcement

open access: yesStrategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary We study an important, but largely overlooked, non‐market strategy used by firms in the enforcement stage of policy: “snitching,” that is, providing intelligence about potential violations of their rivals in an attempt to persuade regulators to fine them.

Obstructions to Genericity in Study of Parametric Problems in Control Theory

open access: yes, 2007
We investigate systems of equations, involving parameters from the point of view of both control theory and computer algebra. The equations might involve linear operators such as partial (q-)differentiation, (q-)shift, (q-)difference as well as more ...

The effect of nearby listings on house sale prices in Sydney: A spatio‐temporal regularization approach

open access: yesReal Estate Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract We estimate the price impact of very nearby concurrently listed properties in the Sydney housing market and assess their competition effects. We apply a hedonic model with spatiotemporal effects regularized via a graph Laplacian prior at the month‐by‐SA2 regional level to seven SA4 subregions of metropolitan Sydney. The model structure enables

Confidence intervals for extinction risk: Validating population viability analysis with limited data

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract The assessment of extinction risk remains a key component of IUCN and CITES evaluations. However, it has been argued that, under realistic data limitations, confidence intervals (CIs) for extinction probability often span the entire 0–1 range, rendering such assessments meaningless.

Sample size determination for hypothesis testing on the intraclass correlation coefficient in a two‐way analysis of variance model

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Reliability evaluation is critical in fields such as psychology and medicine to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment management. When participants are evaluated by the same raters, a two‐way ANOVA model is suitable to model the data, with the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) serving as the reliability metric.

Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

Edge‐preserving noise for diffusion models

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Classical diffusion models typically rely on isotropic Gaussian noise, treating all regions uniformly and overlooking structural information important for high‐quality generation. We introduce an edge‐preserving diffusion process that generalizes isotropic models via a hybrid noise scheme with an edge‐aware scheduler that smoothly transitions ...

Survey on differential estimators for 3d point clouds

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advancements in 3D scanning technologies, including LiDAR and photogrammetry, have enabled the precise digital replication of real‐world objects. These methods are widely used in fields such as GIS, robotics, and cultural heritage. However, the point clouds generated by such scans are often noisy and unstructured, posing challenges for ...

Reducing the replication time for structural estimations: A successful replication of “An Anatomy of International Trade” using GPU computing

open access: yesEconomic Inquiry, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 424-440, April 2025.
Abstract Eaton, Kortum, and Kramarz (2011) (EKK) discovered empirical patterns from French manufacturing firms that a baseline firm heterogeneity model could not explain. The authors proposed and estimated a model that closely matches the patterns observed in French data.

To Grandmother's House We Go: Informal Childcare and Female Labor Mobility

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We document how childcare costs and the location of extended family influence the labor supply and mobility of US women. Women return to their home locations immediately before fertility events, suggesting that informal childcare needs may motivate home migration. Women who live near their parents have lower child earnings penalties.
