Automated face recognition assists with low‐prevalence face identity mismatches but can bias users
Abstract We present three experiments to study the effects of giving information about the decision of an automated face recognition (AFR) system to participants attempting to decide whether two face images show the same person. We make three contributions designed to make our results applicable to real‐word use: participants are given the true ...

Threshold effects in cointegrating relationships [PDF]
In this paper, we introduce threshold-type nonlinearities within a single-equation cointegrating regression model and propose a testing procedure for testing the null hypothesis of linear cointegration vs. cointegration with threshold effects.
