The Cost of Convenience: A Hedonic Approach to Travel Time Valuation and Cost‐Benefit Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel revealed‐preference approach to estimating the value of travel time (VTT) and calculating consumer surplus for the economic evaluation of transport infrastructure. Departing from traditional stated‐preference models, we derive time valuations by linking residential rental transactions in Greater Sydney to employment

A rule-of-thumb for the variable bandwidth selection in kernel hazard rate estimation [PDF]

open access: yes
In nonparametric curve estimation the decision about the type of smoothing parameter is critical for the practical performance. The nearest neighbor bandwidth as introduced by Gefeller and Dette 1992 for censored data in survival analysis is specified by

When Integration Backfires: Examining the Effects of Mandatory Inter‐Municipal Cooperation on Local Housing Markets

open access: yesJournal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper estimates the causal effect of mandatory inter‐municipal cooperation on local service provision and housing markets. I examine Italy's 2010 reform, which required small municipalities to jointly manage core administrative functions, and identify its impact using a fuzzy difference‐in‐discontinuity design.

Canonical Higher-Order Kernels for Density Derivative Estimation [PDF]

open access: yes
In this note we present r th order kernel density derivative estimators using canonical higher-order kernels. These canonical rescalings uncouple the choice of kernel and scale factor. This approach is useful for selection of the order of the kernel in a

The Effects of Canning on the In Vitro Solubility of Phosphorus in Pet Food

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excess phosphate (P) intake through inorganic P (Pi) addition is known to cause various adverse health effects while declaration of use and amount in pet food in the EU is not regulated. Distinction between organic phosphate (oP) from feed ingredients and Pi with standard laboratory methods is impossible.

Nonparametric Inference of Conditional Expectile Functions in Large‐Scale Time Series Data With Improved Efficiency

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Expectile is a coherent and elicitable law‐invariant risk measure widely applied in risk management. Existing methods based on iteratively reweighted least squares (IWLS) are not computationally efficient for large‐scale sample sizes. To overcome the issue, we develop a direct nonparametric conditional expectile function estimator by inverting
