Keeping Pace or Falling Behind? The Depth of Latin American Trade Agreements

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines whether Latin American countries are keeping pace with global trends in trade agreement depth or falling behind. Using 681 agreements (1970–2019), we develop the Depth Index of Trade Agreements (DITA) to weight provisions endogenously through factor analysis based on co‐occurrence patterns.

Popular matchings in the weighted capacitated house allocation problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We consider the problem of finding a popular matching in the <i>Weighted Capacitated House Allocation</i> problem (WCHA). An instance of WCHA involves a set of agents and a set of houses.

Reconfigurable Design and Optimization‐Based Control of an Integrated Leg‐Arm Robot for Space Applications With an Underactuated Body

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A quadrupedal integrated leg‐arm robot with an underactuated reconfigurable body is developed. By using a Sarrus mechanism as the body, the robot enables reconfiguration through its supporting limbs, achieving mode switching without additional actuators.

Energy‐Aware Perturbation Optimization for Memristor‐Array Convolutional Neural Networks

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Memristor‐array inference becomes more energy efficient when layer inputs are reshaped before computation. Sinusoidal perturbation encoding with dual‐threshold screening reduces active voltage pulses and contracts ADC input‐current ranges, jointly lowering crossbar and peripheral energy while preserving accuracy across hardware MNIST validation, deep ...
