USING OLS TO TEST FOR NORMALITY [PDF]

open access: yes
Yitzhaki (1996) showed that the OLS estimator of the slope coefficient in a simple regression is a weighted average of the slopes delineated by adjacent observations. The weights depend only on the distribution of the independent variable.

MusicSwarm: Biologically Inspired Intelligence for Music Composition

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Biologically inspired swarms of frozen foundation models self‐organize to compose complex music without fine‐tuning. By coordinating through stigmergic signals, decentralized agents dynamically evolve specialized roles and adapt to solve complex tasks.

Digital Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering With Event Counting and Spectrum Learning for Label‐Free Protein Quantification

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A statistical and machine learning‐assisted surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) framework is developed for label‐free quantification of low‐abundance analytes, including proteins. Combining digital SERS event counting with binomial regression and an artificial neural network (ANN) trained on full spectra, the approach achieves picomolar detection ...

Dynamic relationship among agriculture-renewable energy-forestry and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions: empirical evidence from GUAM countries

open access: yesEQA
Nowadays with the climate change the environmental degradation has became the crucial issue in the World. This study empirically investigates the impact of agriculture value-added, forest area, and renewable energy on CO2 emissions in GUAM union ...

Rank-1/2: A Simple Way to Improve the OLS Estimation of Tail Exponents [PDF]

open access: yes
Despite the availability of more sophisticated methods, a popular way to estimate a Pareto exponent is still to run an OLS regression: log(Rank)=a-b log(Size), and take b as an estimate of the Pareto exponent.

Lost ground, lost value: Investigating the relationship between soil erosion and agricultural land value

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the impact of soil erosion on agricultural land values in the United States (US) Midwest. Based on a novel county‐level panel data set with information on soil erosion levels and agricultural land values covering five census years (1997, 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017), we separately investigate the direct effect of two types ...

On the Use of the First Principal Component as a Core Inflation Indicator [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper investigates if the (OLS-scaled) first principal component (PC1), extracted from standardized yearly rates of change of basic items of the CPI, represents a reasonable option for a core inflation indicator. The evaluation is carried out by (i)

Seeds of change: The impact of Ethiopia's direct seed marketing approach on smallholders' seed purchases and productivity

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

Food inflation pass‐through from agricultural imports in a small open economy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper develops a new framework for quantifying cost pass‐through in a small open economy by estimating firm‐level markup responses to agricultural import price shocks. We show theoretically that markup adjustments depend on firms' reliance on imported inputs and demand curvature, generating heterogeneous inflationary effects across firm ...

Estimating Systematic Risk: Case For Borsa Istanbul

open access: yesSelçuk Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Dergisi, 2014
The structure of the data set has a great impact on the estimation results. Especially the methods, which are affected by outliers like Ordinary Least Squares OLS , will lead to biased results.
