Connectivity and Selective Rural Migration
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT How does infrastructure shape rural development? Using household panel data from a nationally representative sample of Chinese villages, matched to high‐resolution highway maps, we find that road expansion between 2000 and 2015 operates mainly through reallocation, with less productive farmers scaling down or exiting and more productive ...

On Spatial Point Processes With Composition‐Valued Marks
International Statistical Review, EarlyView.Summary Methods for marked spatial point processes with scalar marks have seen extensive development in recent years. While the impressive progress in data collection and storage capacities has yielded an immense increase in spatial point process data with highly challenging non‐scalar marks, methods for their analysis are not equally well developed ...

A Non‐Parametric Framework for Correlation Functions on Product Metric Spaces
International Statistical Review, EarlyView.Summary We propose a non‐parametric framework for analysing data defined over products of metric spaces, a versatile class encountered in various fields. This framework accommodates non‐stationarity and seasonality and is applicable to both local and global domains, such as the Earth's surface, as well as domains evolving over linear time or time ...

Random‐key optimization for 2D irregular packing with reusable area evaluation
International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract The diverse constraints of industrial applications lead to variants of two‐dimensional (2D) irregular packing problems that require tailored solution methods. This paper addresses a real‐world industrial challenge by proposing a new problem definition, the maximum reusable contiguous area problem (MRCAP), and a novel metric, the maximum ...

Capital‐Labour Substitution in Macroeconomics: A Survey of Mechanisms, Dynamics and Policy Insights
Journal of Economic Surveys, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Macroeconomic conclusions often hinge on a single, hard‐to‐pin‐down parameter: the elasticity of substitution between capital and labour, σ. This survey synthesises theory and evidence on how results change once we move beyond the Cobb–Douglas benchmark (σ=1$\sigma = 1$).
