An empirical examination of restructured electricity prices
We present an empirical analysis of restructured electricity prices. We study the distributional and temporal properties of the price process in a non-parametric framework, after which we parametrically model the price process using several common asset price specifications from the asset-pricing literature, as well as several less conventional models motivated by the peculiarities of electrici...
متن کاملAn Empirical Examination of Deregulated Electricity Prices
In this paper, we present an empirical analysis of deregulated electricity prices. We begin by examining the distributional and temporal properties of the price process in a non-parametric framework. This analysis is followed by comparing the forecasting ability of several different statistical models. The findings reveal several characteristics unique to electricity prices, including determini...
متن کاملSex, drugs, and violence
Automatically detecting inappropriate content can be a difficult NLP task, requiring understanding context and innuendo, not just identifying specific keywords. Due to the large quantity of online user-generated content, automatic detection is becoming increasingly necessary. We take a largely unsupervised approach using a large corpus of narratives from a community-based self-publishing websit...
متن کاملAlcohol, Drugs, and Violence
A review of the scientific literature on the relationship between alcohol and violence and that between drugs and violence is presented. A review and analysis of three major theoretical approaches to understanding these relationships are also presented. A number of conclusions are reached on the basis of these efforts. First, despite a number of published statements to the contrary, we find no ...
متن کاملPrices, Spatial Competition, and Heterogeneous Producers: An Empirical Test
In markets where spatial competition is important, many models predict that average prices are lower in denser markets (i.e., those with more producers per unit area). Homogeneous-producer models attribute this effect solely to lower optimal markups. However, when producers instead differ in their production costs, a second mechanism also acts to lower equilibrium prices: competition-driven sel...
