A finite sample comparison of nonparametric estimates of the effective dose in quantal bioassay [PDF]
To estimate the effective dose level ED a in the common binary response model, several parametric and nonparametric estimators have been proposed in the literature.

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Construction megaprojects, large‐scale, complex, and capital‐intensive, are particularly prone to inefficiencies, cost overruns, delays, and environmental degradation due to fragmented workflows, stakeholder misalignment, and resource intensity.

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.What's New? Using 21 SNPs, two novel PRS were constructed and used to develop two new machine‐learning classifiers, one for the detection of prostate cancer and the other for the prediction of its aggressiveness and subsequent mortality. The classifier for disease detection is built using the PRS as the sole feature, whereas the one for disease ...

Least squares and shrinkage estimation under bimonotonicity constraints [PDF]
, 2018 In this paper we describe active set type algorithms for minimization of a smooth function under general order constraints, an important case being functions on the set of bimonotone r×s matrices. These algorithms can be used, for instance, to estimate a

The “Zhang Xuefeng Effect”: Information Intervention and the College Admission Problem in China
International Studies of Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Information regarding the quality of colleges and labor‐market prospects of majors plays an important role in parents' and students' school‐choice decisions, particularly when these decisions are crucially relevant to the students' long‐run career choices and life earnings.

A comparative study of monotone nonparametric kernel estimates [PDF]
In this paper we present a detailed numerical comparison of three monotone nonparametric kernel regression estimates, which isotonize a nonparametric curve estimator. The first estimate is the classical smoothed isotone estimate of Brunk (1958).

Monetary Policy Shocks and Exchange Rate Dynamics in Small Open Economies
Journal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether the effects of monetary policy shocks on real exchange rates have changed over time and, if so, whether these changes stem from shifts in transmission mechanisms or from variation in the volatility of the shocks themselves.

MAXIMUM LIKELIHOOD ESTIMATION OF ORDERED MULTINOMIAL PARAMETERS [PDF]
, 2003 The pool-adjacent violator-algorithm (Ayer et al., 1955) has long been known to give the maximum likelihood estimator of a series of ordered binomial parameters, based on an independent observation from each distribution (see, Barlow et al., 1972).

Journal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Double/debiased machine learning (DML) uses for estimating an average treatment effect (ATE) a double‐robust score function that relies on the prediction of nuisance functions, such as the propensity score, which is the probability of treatment assignment given covariates.
