The Intention of Waterpipe Tobacco Smoking by Women in the COVID-19 Pandemic and its Contributing Factors: a Nonparametric Path Analysis [PDF]
People with waterpipe tobacco smoking (WTS) seem to be more at risk for the serious complications of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This study aimed at assessing the behavioral intention (BI) of WTS by women in the COVID-19 pandemic and its contributing factors.This cross-sectional descriptive-correlational study was conducted in 2020 (ie, during

Estimation of spline function in nonparametric path analysis based on penalized weighted least square (PWLS) [PDF]
The aim of this research is to estimate the spline in Path Analysis-based on Nonparametric Regression using Penalized Weighted Least Square (PWLS) approach. Approach used is Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space at sobolev space. Nonparametric path analysis model on the equation y1i=f1.1(x1i)+e1i;y2i=f1.2(x1i)+f2.2(y1i)+e2i; i=1,2,…,n Nonparametric Path ...

The strategic paths and performances of Italian mutual banks: a nonparametric analysis [PDF]
This paper investigates an Italian group of Mutual Banks (MBs) over the period 2001?2005. We identify homogeneous groups by cluster analysis and then measure their performance ratios. We evaluate the groups' efficiency and productivity by means of nonparametric techniques (Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Luenberger Indicator).

Nested Hierarchical Dirichlet Processes [PDF]
We develop a nested hierarchical Dirichlet process (nHDP) for hierarchical topic modeling. The nHDP is a generalization of the nested Chinese restaurant process (nCRP) that allows each word to follow its own path to a topic node according to a document ...

How revealing is revealed preference? [PDF]
This lecture address the following two key criticisms of the empirical application of revealed preference theory: When the RP conditions do not reject, they do not provide precise predictions; and when they do reject, they do not help characterize the ...
