Appraisal and gender

open access: yesReal Estate Economics, EarlyView.
AbstractWe test for gender differences in the real estate appraisal industry. We ask whether female appraisers evaluate different types of properties and whether they value the properties differently compared to their male counterparts. We largely do not find any statistically or economically significant differences between male and female appraisers ...

High School GPA and Exam Scores: Does Their Relevance for First‐Year Academic Performance Vary With Program Selectivity?

open access: yesBulletin of Economic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines student admissions to higher education based on past performance, focusing on two measures: high school GPA and national exam scores. GPA is teacher‐assigned and based on repeated assessments, while these exams are externally graded, one‐off standardized tests. Using a nationwide dataset, we investigate how the relevance of

Lodge moraines: a common yet underreported end‐moraine type—a review

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Lodge moraines are a distinct genetic type of end moraine formed by submarginal accretion of subglacial till; they are some of the largest end moraines in the world. Although underreported in the literature, they are of equal importance to push, dump and hummocky end moraines. End moraines are formed at glacier ice margins and show the extent of former

Stochastic Pairwise MIS for Unbiased Large‐Kernel Reuse in Real‐Time

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Spatiotemporal resampling methods such as ReSTIR decrease noise in Monte Carlo rendering of dynamic content by reusing paths across frames and pixels. Standard ReSTIR reuses spatially from a small number of randomly selected neighbors. This reuse suffers when few neighbors contain contributing samples, reducing quality toward that of the ...

GNOCHI: Generative Neural mOdel for Close Human‐Human Interactions

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Creating realistic 3D human‐human interactions in virtual environments is challenging due to the high degrees of freedom in human body and the need for physically accurate poses that do not collide with each other. Traditional methods for humanhuman interaction are based on motion tracking or 3D body reconstruction, but lack generative ...

Budding enrollment: The impact of cannabis policy on US colleges and universities

open access: yesContemporary Economic Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract We examine how liberalized recreational marijuana laws have affected freshmen enrollment and science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) major choice using difference‐in‐differences and event study models. Estimates indicate near‐zero initial enrollment growth as schools substituted between in‐state and out‐of‐state students.
