Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

Evaluating synthetic substitutes to reduce illegal harvesting and support species recovery

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Providing synthetic substitutes is a widely promoted strategy to shift consumer demand away from wildlife products derived from threatened species. Yet, there is little evidence on whether product substitution prevents illegal or unsustainable harvesting and contributes to the recovery of threatened populations.

Exposure to Left‐Tail Risk, Risk Appetite, and Mutual Fund Flows

open access: yesFinancial Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using a measure of aggregate tail risk, we show that a fund's sensitivity (exposure) to tail risk negatively affects the fund flows and the fund's performance. Further, a fund's tail risk sensitivity relates positively to the left‐tail risk measures of the fund.

The Short and the Long of It: Stock‐Flow Matching in the US Housing Market

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From 2006 until 2020, the probability of selling a house in the U.S. declined sharply after listing for 2 weeks. Moreover, sales within the first 2 weeks of listing (“quick sales”) and sales happening afterward (“slow sales”) behaved differently over the housing cycle.

A Non‐Parametric Framework for Correlation Functions on Product Metric Spaces

open access: yesInternational 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 ...
