Markov-Switching MIDAS Models [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper introduces a new regression model - Markov-switching mixed data sampling (MS-MIDAS) - that incorporates regime changes in the parameters of the mixed data sampling (MIDAS) models and allows for the use of mixed-frequency data in Markov ...

Multi‐Stage Social Value Orientation‐Based Lane‐Changing Driving for Autonomous Vehicles

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A multi‐stage SVO framework is developed to dynamically infer the social preferences of surrounding vehicles from human driving data. By combining offline learning, online SVO estimation, temporal intention tracking, and interaction‐aware planning, the framework enables autonomous vehicles to adapt lane‐changing decisions and trajectories to evolving ...

The importance Markov chain

open access: yesStochastic Processes and their Applications
The Importance Markov chain is a novel algorithm bridging the gap between rejection sampling and importance sampling, moving from one to the other through a tuning parameter. Based on a modified sample of an instrumental Markov chain targeting an instrumental distribution (typically via a MCMC kernel), the Importance Markov chain produces an extended ...

Redistributive land reforms, agricultural productivity, and structural change: New cross‐national evidence

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.

Bayesian inference for Hidden Markov Model [PDF]

open access: yes
Hidden Markov Models can be considered an extension of mixture models, allowing for dependent observations. In a hierarchical Bayesian framework, we show how Reversible Jump Markov Chain Monte Carlo techniques can be used to estimate the parameters of ...

Linking community structure and climate vulnerability in desert plant assemblages of southern California

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Desert plant assemblages in southern California provide an opportunity to link patterns of community structure with climate‐driven vulnerability in a rapidly changing environment. California sustains an exceptionally diverse flora of approximately 4300 plant species, with 31% identified as endemic.

Modelling the purchase dynamics of insurance customers using Markov chains

open access: yes, 2005
This paper considers how various types of Markov chains can be used to help forecast the purchase behaviour of customers. The models are used in a case study of the purchase behaviour of the customers of a major insurance company.

Forecasting the Turns of German Business Cycle: Dynamic Bi-factor Model with Markov Switching [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper a dynamic bi-factor model with Markov switching is proposed to measure and predict turning points of the German business cycle. It estimates simultaneously the composite leading indicator (CLI) and composite coincident indicator (CCI ...
