Molecular phylogeny of the genus Saguinus (Platyrrhini, Primates) based on the ND1 mitochondrial gene and implications for conservation

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2005
The systematics of the subfamily Callitrichinae (Platyrrhini, Primates), a group of small monkeys from South America and Panama, remains an area of considerable discussion despite many investigations, there being continuing controversy over subgeneric ...

Nowcasting Swiss GDP Growth From Public Lead Texts: Simple Methods Are Sufficient

open access: yesOxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Public lead texts from Swiss newspapers contain most of the signal needed to nowcast Swiss GDP growth in real time. I build an indicator from daily topic‐specific sentiment and recession measures extracted from three Swiss newspapers and evaluate it in pseudo‐real time.

Against Proxy Optimization

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT I discuss conditions under which maximizing a proxy utility function is harmful and suggest this poses problems for applying decision theory.

Metisella midas subsp. midas Butler 1894

open access: yes, 2017
Metisella midas midas Butler, 1894 This subspecies was described from Zomba, Malawi (Butler 1894), and its range extends from Malawi and Zimbabwe to Congo and East Africa. Evans (1937) described specimens from Nigeria and Cameroon as subspecies malda. This species is one of a group of four orange spotted Metisella spp. from Kenya.

MIDAS: Multilinear Detection at Scale

open access: yesEasyChair Preprints, 2018
We focus on two classes of problems in graph mininghere: (1) finding trees and (2) anomaly detection using networkscan statistics in complex networks. These are fundamentalproblems in a broad class of applications. Most of the parallelalgorithms for such problems are either based on heuristics,which do not scale very well, or use techniques like ...

Mixed Frequency Data Sampling Regression Models: The R Package midasr

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2016
When modeling economic relationships it is increasingly common to encounter data sampled at different frequencies. We introduce the R package midasr which enables estimating regression models with variables sampled at different frequencies within a MIDAS

Little Fish in Big Ponds: The Pathways to Inclusion for Micro‐Minorities in Power‐Sharing Societies

open access: yesSwiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Emergent critique of consociations has focused on how micro‐minority ‘others’ are frequently excluded from the opportunities presented by power‐sharing systems, with dominant elites shutting them out. Therefore, a key question is: how do the political elites of micro‐minorities gain more meaningful inclusion by adopting or navigating the ...

Root trait dynamics of historical canola varieties under low and high nitrogen supply

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Nitrogen fertilizer is a major input cost in crop production, making it crucial to enhance nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) to reduce fertilizer dependence without compromising yields. Root system architecture (RSA) is a key determinant of nutrient acquisition, particularly under nutrient‐limited conditions.

Forecasting With Dynamic Factor Models Estimated by Partial Least Squares

open access: yesJournal of Forecasting, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 2785-2806, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Dynamic factor models (DFMs) have found great success in nowcasting and short‐term macroeconomic forecasting when incorporating large sets of predictive information. The factor loadings are typically estimated cross‐sectionally with principal component analysis (PCA) or maximum likelihood (ML), which ignore whether the factors have predictive ...

Point and Risk estImation Using an enSemble of Models for Nowcasting: PRISM‐Now

open access: yesJournal of Forecasting, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 2760-2784, September 2026.
ABSTRACT We propose PRISM‐Now, a novel ensemble forecasting system for near‐term GDP projection. Recognizing that relevant economic information evolves over time, we treat forecasts from multiple base models as draws from a mixture distribution of “good” and “bad” estimates, whose composition changes continuously and cannot be identified ex ante.
