Can market power be estimated?

Can the stock market be linearised?

The evolution of financial markets is a complicated real-world phenomenon that ranks at the top in terms of difficulty of modeling and/or prediction. One reason for this difficulty is the well-documented nonlinearity that is inherently at work. The state-of-the-art on the nonlinear modeling of financial returns is given by the popular ARCH (Auto-Regressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity) models...

Can the stock market be linearized?

Abstract: The evolution of financial markets is a complicated real-world phenomenon that ranks at the top in terms of difficulty of modeling and/or prediction. One reason for this difficulty is the well-documented nonlinearity that is inherently at work. The state-of-the-art on the nonlinear modeling of financial returns is given by the popular ARCH (Auto-Regressive Conditional Heteroscedastici...

Can 3D Shape be Estimated from Focus Cues Alone?

0.6 D Four subjects were asked to judge the shape of a hinge (convex or concave). Rendered blur and optimized stimuli were generated using a simulated aperture equal to the subject’s measured pupil size under experimental conditions. Hinges were presented monocularly (removing disparity cue) and textured in screen space (removing texture cue). Stimulus duration: 0.3 s, 3 s, or 5 s Vertex distan...

Safety Factors for Road Design: Can They Be Estimated?

When asked to state the safety of a particular design, highway engineers are at a loss to give a single meaningful measure, as is possible in structural or geotechnical engineering. The question of a meaningful road safety design measure led to a method to estimate the margin of safety and safety index for isolated highway components. The method uses the basic highway alignment design equations...
