Inflation targeting and inflation persistence [PDF]
, 2002 This paper argues that the adoption of an inflation target reduces the persistence of inflation. We develop the theoretical literature on inflation persistence by introducing a Taylor rule for monetary policy into a model of persistence and showing ...

A study of the score test in discrimination poisson and zero-inflated poisson models [PDF]
Acta Scientiarum. Technology, 2013 In many experimental situations the sample may present excess zero observations and generally are used probabilistic models for zero inflated to represent them. However no one knows precisely the amount of zero observations that these models support. Depending on the sample size and null observations number the Poisson model can be used.
