Bayesian analysis of diffusion-driven multi-type epidemic models with application to COVID-19

Lampros Bouranis, Nikolaos Demiris, Konstantinos Kalogeropoulos +1

We consider a flexible Bayesian evidence synthesis approach to model the age-specific transmission dynamics of COVID-19 based on daily mortality counts. The temporal evolution of t…

Automatic Change-Point Detection in Time Series via Deep Learning

Jie Li, Paul Fearnhead, Piotr Fryzlewicz +1

Detecting change-points in data is challenging because of the range of possible types of change and types of behaviour of data when there is no change. Statistically efficient meth…

Conditional Likelihood Ratio Test with Many Weak Instruments

Sreevidya Ayyar, Yukitoshi Matsushita, Taisuke Otsu

This paper extends validity of the conditional likelihood ratio (CLR) test developed by Moreira (2003) to instrumental variable regression models with unknown error variance and ma…

Measuring e-Commerce Metric Changes in Online Experiments

C. H. Bryan Liu, Emma J. McCoy

Digital technology organizations routinely use online experiments (e.g. A/B tests) to guide their product and business decisions. In e-commerce, we often measure changes to transac…

The law of one price in quadratic hedging and mean-variance portfolio selection

Aleš Černý, Christoph Czichowsky

The law of one price (LOP) broadly asserts that identical financial flows should command the same price. We show that, when properly formulated, LOP is the minimal condition for a…

Footprint of publication selection bias on meta-analyses in medicine, environmental sciences, psychology, and economics

František Bartoš, Maximilian Maier, Eric-Jan Wagenmakers +9

Publication selection bias undermines the systematic accumulation of evidence. To assess the extent of this problem, we survey over 68,000 meta-analyses containing over 700,000 eff…

Scaling Laws for Function Diversity and Specialization Across Socioeconomic and Biological Complex Systems

Vicky Chuqiao Yang, James Holehouse, Hyejin Youn +4

Function diversity, the range of tasks individuals perform, and specialization, the distribution of function abundances, are fundamental to complex adaptive systems. In the absence…

Zero-Sum Games and Linear Programming Duality

Bernhard von Stengel

The minimax theorem for zero-sum games is easily proved from the strong duality theorem of linear programming. For the converse direction, the standard proof by Dantzig (1951) is k…

Partitioning a 2-edge-coloured graph of minimum degree into three monochromatic cycles

Peter Allen, Julia Böttcher, Richard Lang +2

Lehel conjectured in the 1970s that every red and blue edge-coloured complete graph can be partitioned into two monochromatic cycles. This was confirmed in 2010 by Bessy and Thomas…
