The Impact of Economic Growth on Insurance (Growth)

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the impact of economic growth on insurance (growth), focusing on the outflow side of the insurance activity, as captured by benefits (including commissions and expenses). The findings provide evidence that economic growth does exert a positive, statistically significant impact on the benefit side of insurance (growth ...

Land Use Policy and Racial Segregation

International Studies of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Land use policies, though seemingly race‐neutral, can inadvertently contribute to racial segregation. Our study focuses on examining the impact of minimum lot size regulations on the likelihood of ethnic minorities integrating into a community, which reveals compelling evidence suggesting that black households exhibit a preference for smaller ...

Split Averaging: Bridging the Heterogeneity Gap in Clients Data for Federated Learning

IEEE Access
Federated Learning (FL) has gained significant prominence to overcome the issue of data silos in various domains. However, since its introduction FL has been confronted with the presence of Non-Independent and Identically Distributed (Non-IID) data ...

Are consumers willing to pay more for future organic? Preference for certified transitional labels

Journal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, EarlyView.
Abstract The organic industry in the United States (US) has never kept pace with consumer demand and heavily relies on imports. This paper investigates how consumers value certified transitional labels, indicating growers are transitioning from conventional to organic production.

Chromatic PAC-Bayes Bounds for Non-IID Data.

, 2009
Pac-Bayes bounds are among the most accurate generalization bounds for classifiers learned with \iid data, and it is particularly so for margin classifiers. However, there are many practical cases where the training data show some dependencies and where the traditional \iid assumption does not apply.

Fiscal Policy Regimes in Resource‐Rich Economies

Journal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We analyse fiscal policy in resource‐rich economies using a novel Bayesian regime‐switching panel model. The identified regimes capture pro‐ or countercyclical fiscal behaviour by allowing regime‐specific shifts in the average fiscal stance, while the switches between the regimes have the interpretation of changes in fiscal policy.

Labor Market Institutions, Fiscal Multipliers, and Macroeconomic Volatility

Journal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How do labor market institutions shape the transmission of government spending shocks and macroeconomic volatility? We develop a theoretical model in which labor market institutions affect fiscal transmission through their effect on wage rigidity, job separation, and matching frictions.

Enhancing federated learning for IoT-based anomaly detection: A reputation-based client selection approach

Alexandria Engineering Journal
Federated Learning (FL) enables collaborative model training across decentralized, privacy-sensitive environments but often suffers from slow convergence, unbalanced client selection, and non‑IID data challenges.

Gender, Stereotypes, and Competitive Performance Gap: An Experimental Investigation

Managerial and Decision Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how participants in competition react to gender stereotypes in performance. We propose two novel gender‐oriented tasks: clicking as a male‐oriented task and face recall as a female‐oriented task with two treatment conditions, which can strengthen shared gender stereotypes and foster gender competition.
