Common Correlation and Calibrating the Lognormal Forward Rate Model [PDF]

open access: yes
1997 three papers that introduced very similar lognormal diffusion processes for interest rates appeared virtuously simultaneously. These models, now commonly called the 'LIBOR models' are based on either lognormal diffusions of forward rates as in Brace,

Animal‐Mediated Dispersal and Clonal Growth Drive Prunus cerasus Invasion in Andean Temperate Forest

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Prunus cerasus reproduces by clonality and by seed dispersal and germination. P. cerasus is invading Patagonian protected areas. The relative relevance of germination and clonal reproduction changes along the time of P. cerasus arrival at a site. Seed dispersal by foxes is primarily responsible for the spread of P. cerasus to new areas.

Dorsal Crypsis and Chemical Defense Jointly Shape Brain Size in Toads

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We found that total brain size and dorsal crypsis under both ultraviolet‐sensitive (UVS) and violet‐sensitive (VS) tetrachromatic bird visual models were negatively associated across eight species of toads. Our findings suggest that when species reduce predation risk by evolving increased dorsal crypsis, they may exhibit decreased brain size due to ...

Mitigating policy uncertainty: What financial markets reveal about firm‐level lobbying

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Elections can lead to substantial policy changes and, thus, are a significant source of risk. Firms can respond to such policy uncertainty by lobbying, but it is hard to quantify whether they do so and, if so, how much lobbying benefits them. We construct a new dataset and leverage investors’ expectations of variability in stock returns in the

BAYESIAN ANALYSIS FOR THE GENERALIZED LOGNORMAL DISTRIBUTION APPLIED TO FAILURE TIME ANALYSIS ANÁLISIS BAYESIANO PARA LA DISTRIBUCIÓN LOGNORMAL GENERALIZADA APLICADA A MODELOS DE FALLA CON CENSURA

open access: yesRevista Colombiana de Estadística, 2011
There are several versions of the lognormal distribution in the statistical literature, one is based in the exponential transformation of generalized normal distribution (GN).

LOGNFIT: Stata module to fit lognormal distribution by maximum likelihood

open access: yes
lognfit fits by ML the 2 parameter lognormal distribution to sample observations on a random variable. lognpred calculates statistics summarizing a lognormal distribution which has been fitted using lognfit.

Grading‐labour cost analysis of AI‐assisted versus human‐only diabetic retinopathy screening in two Danish healthcare settings

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Diabetic retinopathy (DR) screening is essential to prevent vision loss, yet rising diabetes prevalence threatens to outpace ophthalmology capacity. Artificial intelligence (AI) systems can triage retinal images to reduce clinician workload, but economic evidence from high‐income, tax‐funded health systems remains limited.

QLOGNORM: Stata module for diagnostic plots for lognormal distribution

open access: yes
qlognorm plots the quantiles of varname against the quantiles of the corresponding lognormal distribution. plognorm graphs a standardized lognormal probability plot for varname.
