Accounting &Finance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We examine how accounting quality attributes jointly mitigate underpricing associated with two dimensions of information risk in seasoned equity offerings (SEOs). In information environments with relatively more potent information asymmetry, the evidence suggests that accruals quality and accounting comparability act as substitutes; i.e ...

An informal comparison between surround microphone techniques
There is currently a lack of recorded test materials in five-channel surround format. Particularly lacking are recordings made simultaneously using different microphone arrays that would allow comparative switching between different recorded versions of ...

Competitive diplomacy in bargaining and war
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract War is often viewed as a bargaining problem. However, prior to bargaining, countries can vie for leverage by expending effort on diplomacy. This article presents a dynamic model of conflict where agenda‐setting power is endogenous to pre‐bargaining diplomatic competition.

Beamforming using microphone arrays
, 2010 The aim of the master thesis is to sum up theoretical information about beamforming methods of microphone arrays and to verify their functionality. At the beginning of this work there are simulated different varietes of linear uniform and nonuniform ...

SensorsThis paper is devoted to the sensor selection problem. A broadband receiver beamforming working in a near-field is considered. The system response should be as close as possible to the desired one, which is optimized in the sense of L2 norm.

Design of circular differential microphone arrays
, 2015 Recently, we proposed a completely novel and efficient way to design differential beamforming algorithms for linear microphone arrays. Thanks to this very flexible approach, any order of differential arrays can be designed.

How FDI reshapes host markets’ trade profile and politics
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract A fast‐growing literature indicates that firms’ engagement in foreign direct investment (FDI) and trade is key to understanding deepening global value chains and their political implications. However, existing studies have mainly focused on the ramifications for FDI home countries while often overlooking the firm‐product level interactions ...

Beamforming with optimized interpolated microphone arrays
, 2008 We present an optimization procedure for wideband beamforming with interpolated arrays. We intend to design a beamformer with a compact size. In addition, we want to reduce the number of sensors while maintaining a good beamforming performance.

Police department design, political pressure, and racial inequality in arrests
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract This paper theorizes a source of bias in discretionary arrests: strategic limits on police officer learning. Officers have a variety of tactics at their disposal besides arrest that they use for less serious offenses when they judge the underlying behavior to be less severe. In departments led by a chief with special expertise in crime control,
