Intrasexually selected weapons

open access: yesBiological Reviews of The Cambridge Philosophical Society, 2018
We propose a practical concept that distinguishes the particular kind of weaponry that has evolved to be used in combat between individuals of the same species and sex, which we term intrasexually selected weapons (ISWs). We present a treatise of ISWs in

Bayesian Weapon System Reliability Modeling with Cox-Weibull Neural Network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
We propose to integrate weapon system features (such as weapon system manufacturer, deployment time and location, storage time and location, etc.) into a parameterized Cox-Weibull [1] reliability model via a neural network, like DeepSurv [2], to improve predictive maintenance.

Trade and Currency Weapons [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2018
AbstractThe debate on trade and currency wars has reemerged since the Global Financial Crisis. We study the two forms of noncooperative policies within a single framework. First, we compare the elasticity of trade flows to import tariffs and to the real exchange rate, based on product‐level data for 110 countries over the 1989–2013 period. We find that
