When is Foreign Aid Effective in Fighting Terrorism? Threshold Evidence
Building on previous literature, we assess when foreign aid is effective in fighting terrorism using quantile regressions on a panel of 78 developing countries for the period 1984-2008. Bilteral, multilateral and total aid indicators are used whereas terrorism includes: domestic, transnational, unclear and total terrorism dynamics. We consistently establish that foreign aid (bilateral, multilat...
متن کاملNonparametric multivariate conditional distribution and quantile regression
In nonparametric multivariate regression analysis, one usually seeks methods to reduce the dimensionality of the regression function to bypass the difficulty caused by the curse of dimensionality. We study nonparametric estimation of multivariate conditional distribution and quantile regression via local univariate quadratic estimation of partial derivatives of bivariate copulas. Without restri...

متن کاملBoosting Based Conditional Quantile Estimation for Regression and Binary Classification
We introduce Quantile Boost (QBoost) algorithms which predict conditional quantiles of the interested response for regression and binary classification. Quantile Boost Regression (QBR) performs gradient descent in functional space to minimize the objective function used by quantile regression (QReg). In the classification scenario, the class label is defined via a hidden variable, and the quant...
متن کاملRace, Paternalism, and Foreign Aid: Evidence from U.S. Public Opinion
Virtually all previous studies of domestic economic redistribution find white Americans to be less enthusiastic about welfare for black recipients than for white recipients. When it comes to foreign aid and international redistribution across racial lines, I argue that prejudice manifests not in an uncharitable, resentful way but in a paternalistic way because intergroup contact is minimal and ...
