Повний текст джерелаTo address this challenge, I developed a flexible method for modelling cumulative effects of time-varying exposures, weighted by recency, represented by time-dependent covariates in the Cox proportional hazards model. The function that assigns weights to doses taken in the past is estimated using cubic regression splines. Models with different number of knots and constraints are estimated. Bootstrap techniques are used to obtain pointwise confidence bands around the weight functions, accounting for both the sampling variation of the regression coefficients, and the uncertainty at the model selection stage, i.e. the additional variance due to a posteriori selection of the number of knots.
To assess the method in simulations, I had to develop and validate a novel algorithm to generate event times conditional on time-dependent covariates and compared it with the algorithms available in the literature. The proposed algorithm extends a previously proposed permutational algorithm to include a rejection sampler. While all the algorithms generated data sets that, once analyzed, provided virtually unbiased estimates with comparable variances, the algorithm that I proposed reduced the computational time by more than 50 per cent relative to alternative methods. I used simulations to systematically investigate the properties of the weighted cumulative dose method. Six different weight functions were considered. Simulations showed that in most situations, the proposed method was able to capture the shape of the true weight functions and to produce estimates of the magnitude of the exposure effect on the risk that were close to those used to generate the data. I finally illustrated the use of the weighted cumulative dose modelling by reassessing the association between the use of selected benzodiazepines and fall-related injuries, using administrative data on a cohort of elderly who initiated their use of benzodiazepines between 1990 and 2004.

Educational researchers are often interested in longitudinal phenomena within a person and relations between the person's characteristics. Since repeatedly measured variables reflect their within- and between-person aspects, researchers need to disaggregate them statistically to understand the phenomenon of interest. Recent studies found that the traditional centering method, where the individual's average of a predictor was subtracted from the original predictor value, could not correctly disentangle the within- and between-person effects when the predictor showed a systematic change over time (i.e., trend). They proposed some techniques to remove the trend; however, the detrending methods were only applicable to multilevel models. Therefore, the present study develops novel detrending methods using structural equation modeling. The proposed models are compared to the existing methods through a series of Monte Carlo simulations, where we can manipulate a data-generating model and its parameter values. The results indicate that (a) model misspecification for the time-varying predictor or outcome leads to systematic deviation of the estimates from their true values, (b) statistical properties of estimates of the effects are mostly determined by the type of between-person predictors (i.e., observed or latent), and (c) the latent predictor models require nonzero growth factor variances for unbiased estimation, while the observed predictor models need either nonzero or zero variance, depending on the parameter. As concluding remarks, some recommendations for the practitioners are provided.

Повний текст джерелаConsiderable uncertainty surrounds the macroeconomic effects of fiscal policy. The re-search presented in this dissertation firstly aims at improving on the methods used to measure such effects - which feature vector autoregressions (VARs) as the basic tool. The investigation is partly carried out using structural VARs. The methodological innova¬tions in that part concern the joint identification of fiscal shocks vis-a-vis monetary policy shocks and the estimation of a model with time-varying parameters using a non-recursive identification scheme. I also use reduced-form VARs to assess the effects of a novel shock measure, derived from budget forecasts, that is arguably free of anticipatory movements. The second aim of the dissertation is to present empirical results for the US, focusing on the way the impacts of the government budget on the economy have changed over time. The thesis is divided into three essays. In the first one, I present evidence that taxes and transfers were the most important force attenuating the severity of recessions up to the eighties, surpassing the role of monetary policy. Fiscal policy has, however, become less effective in stimulating output in the course of the last decades. The findings in the second and the third essays corroborate this conclusion. Such a change in effectiveness is particularly marked for the shock measure that is relatively unaffected by anticipation, which features multipliers with non-conventional signs in the recent period. In general, these findings call for more research on the factors that intervene in the transmission mechanism of fiscal policy and can bring about important variation in its impacts.

Повний текст джерелаThis Thesis is the result of my Master Degree studies at the Graduate School of Economics, Getúlio Vargas Foundation, from January 2004 to August 2006. am indebted to my Thesis Advisor, Professor Luiz Renato Lima, who introduced me to the Econometrics' world. In this Thesis, we study time-varying quantile process and we develop two applications, which are presented here as Part and Part II. Each of these parts was transformed in paper. Both papers were submitted. Part shows that asymmetric persistence induces ARCH effects, but the LMARCH test has power against it. On the other hand, the test for asymmetric dynamics proposed by Koenker and Xiao (2004) has correct size under the presence of ARCH errors. These results suggest that the LM-ARCH and the Koenker-Xiao tests may be used in applied research as complementary tools. In the Part II, we compare four different Value-at-Risk (VaR) methodologies through Monte Cario experiments. Our results indicate that the method based on quantile regression with ARCH effect dominates other methods that require distributional assumption. In particular, we show that the non-robust method ologies have higher probability to predict VaRs with too many violations. We illustrate our findings with an empirical exercise in which we estimate VaR for returns of São Paulo stock exchange index, IBOVESPA, during periods of market turmoil. Our results indicate that the robust method based on quantile regression presents the least number of violations.

Повний текст джерелаThe cross-sectional variation of stock returns used to be described by the Capital Asset Pricing Model until the early 90‟s. Anomalies, such as, book-to-market effect and small firm effect undermined CAPM‟s ability to explain stock returns and Fama & French (1992) have shown that simple firm attributes, like, firm size and book-to-market value can explain the returns far better than Beta. Following Fama & French many other researchers examine the explanatory powers of CAPM and other asset pricing models. However, most of those studies use US data. There are some researches done in different countries than US, however more out-of-sample studies need to be conducted.
To our knowledge there are very few studies using the Swedish data and this thesis contributes to that small pool of studies. Moreover, the studies testing the CAPM use the unconditional version of the model. There are some papers suggesting the use of a conditional CAPM that would exhibit better explanatory powers than the unconditional CAPM. Different ways of conditioning the CAPM have been proposed, but one that we think is the least complex and possible to make use of in the business world is the dual-beta model. This conditional CAPM assumes a different relationship between beta and stock returns during the up markets and down markets. Furthermore, the model has not thoroughly been tested outside the US. Our study is the first to use the dual-beta model in Sweden. In addition, the momentum effect has lately been given some attention and Fama & French‟s (1993) three factor model has not been able to explain the abnormal returns related to that anomaly. We test the Fama & French three factor model, CAPM and Carhart‟s four factor model‟s explanatory abilities of the momentum effect using Swedish stock returns. Ultimately, our aim is to find the best model that describes stock return cross-section on the Stockholm Stock Exchange.
We use returns of all the non-financial firms listed on Stockholm Stock Exchange between September, 1997 and April, 2010. The number of companies included in our time sample is 366. The results of our tests indicate that the small firm effect, book-to-market effect and the momentum effect are not present on the Stockholm Stock Exchange. Consequently, the CAPM emerges as the one model that explains stock return cross-section better than the other models suggesting that Beta is still a proper measure of risk. Furthermore, the conditional version of CAPM describes the stock return variation far better than the unconditional CAPM. This implies using different Betas to estimate risk during up market conditions and down market conditions.

Повний текст джерелаHårdgörning av trä syftar till att göra materialet hårdare. Detta går att åstadkomma genom komprimering, det komprimerade materialet tenderar dock att återgå mot sin ursprungsform då materialet utsätts för fukt om ingen låsning sker. Låsningen kan ske mekaniskt i en treskiktskonstruktion som motverkar träets fuktrörelser. Dessa skivor har dock visat sig vara instabila och tidigare försök har uppvisat deformationer i form av kupning. Denna undersökning syftar till att utreda förutsättningarna för att använda komprimerad asp samt att ta fram underlag för framtagning av en kommersiell produkt.
Praktiska tester har genomförts för att studera hårdhet, återfjädring och densitet hos det komprimerade virket. Vidare har treskiktsskivor tagits fram för att testa om det går att få en stabil konstruktion genom att variera tjockleken på spärrskiktet. Även skillnader i acklimatiseringstid och fuktkvotens inverkan för virkets återfjädring har studerats.
Resultaten visar på att aspens hårdhet efter komprimering blir i samma nivå som bok och ask, en låg fuktkkvot vid komprimering av materialet ger en låg återfjädring, komprimerat material har en längre acklimatiseringstid till jämviktsfuktkvot och materialet går att låsa tvärs fiberriktningen i en treskiktskonstruktion.
To make wood harder it can be densified. This can be achieved by compression, the compressed material tends to return to the original shape when it is exposed to moisture fluxations and if no form of fixation occurs. The fixation can be done mechanically in a three-layer panel construction which reduce movements in the timber. These panels have been found to be unstable and previous attempts have shown deformations in form of cupping. This study aims to evaluate the conditions for using compressed aspen wood, and to provide a basis for development of a commercial product.
Practical tests have been conducted to study hardness, springback and density of the compressed wood. In addition, three-layer panels have been developed to test whether it is possible to have a stable construction by varying the thickness of the buttom layer. Differences in acclimatisation time and the moisture contents effect on the springback has aslo been studied.
The results show that the hardness of aspen wood after compression is in equal levels with beech and ashes, a low moisture contet provides a low springback, compressed timber have a longer time for acclimatisation and it is possible to fixate the material in the direction across the grain in a three-layer panel construction.

This study is to examine if the risk premia of size effect on equity REITs (EREITs) are time-varying by using GARCH family models and to investigate how macroeconomic factors affect the size premia. We reexamine the size effect by using Fama-French three-factor model to demonstrate that there indeed exists the size effect in EREITs market. We investigate the time-varying volatility for size effect by using a sample of publicly traded EREITs with GARCH family models. To extend our research, we analyze the relationship of conditional volatility between macroeconomic variables and size premia with vector autoregressive (VAR) method. Our main findings are as follows: (1) there is a reverse size effect, and size premia is not stable during the period of July 1995 to December 2006; (2) size premia may be affected by its conditional variance; (3) we find no leverage effect in size premia on EREITs returns; (4) the variation of size premia is partially resulted from the volatility of term spread in the bond market and the volatility of short-term interest rates, the proxy for monetary policy; (5) the unexpected shock from the fluctuation of term spread in bond market lowers the volatility of size premia on EREITs returns; (6) the big size EREITs are a good investment when default risk premium fluctuates dramatically.

In this article, we investigate contemporaneous and lag-one return-order imbalance relation for large trading of individual NASDAQ-100 stocks in bull, bear, and consolidation markets. We use 90 seconds order imbalances as our explanatory variable in GARCH (1, 1) model. The sample period is from Dec 2, 2002 to Jan 6, 2003. We only focus on medium to large size order imbalances in order to minimize noise of small trades. We sum those medium trades within 4.5 minutes, and the summands and other small trades are thus censored. By summing these medium orders, we can recover information that camouflaged by informed traders. The major findings in this study are as follows. There is a contemporaneous significant positive relation between stock returns and order imbalances of each individual stock no matter what market it is. While in lag-one period, more than 86% of the coefficients are negative; the positive relation continuation occurs more possibly in bull market, which means there might exists a return reversal in the next period. We also find that the relation of contemporaneous coefficients and market capitalization is significantly negative. It implies that order imbalances have substantial impact on stock returns of smaller firms due to their severe information asymmetry.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of varying compression time constants in a hearing aid on Mandarin word and tone intelligibility. Materials and methods: Fourteen subjects with moderate or moderate-to-severe sensorineural hearing loss participated in this study. The age of subjects ranged from 20 to 60 years old. They are all native Chinese speakers. A master digital hearing aid with four different combinations of attack-release time were given to each subject. They were tested with word discrimination in noise, tone discrimination in noise and sentence discrimination in noise under these four time constants. Furthermore, subjective preference to these four conditions was also assessed by using questionnaires. Results: Among the three objective discrimination tests, only sentence intelligibility revealed significant difference under different time constants. This result indicated that fast-acting compression is superior to slow-acting compression. Varying compression time constants failed to show any differences on monosyllable word discrimination and tone discrimination in noise. Also, no significant difference was found on the preference of users. Conclusion: For the subjects with moderate or moderate-to-severe sensorineural hearing loss, varying compression time constants failed to show effects on Mandarin word and tone intelligibility. Also, there is no significant effect on subjective preference. However, fast-acting compression is better than slow-acting compression on sentence intelligibility.

The objectives of this study were to analyze the effects of predictive factors on the marginal mean of time-varying fetal weight after 24 week pregnancy, to predict the mean of newborn’s birth weight, and to plot the predicted quantiles of time-varying fetal weight after 24 week pregnancy. The statistical methodologies applied in this study included the correction of the estimation bias due to the measurement errors of some covariates in linear regression model and the application of the generalized instrumental variables (GIV) estimation method to adjust the estimation bias caused by the endogeneity of some covariates. The main findings are listed below: 1. The predictive factors that affected the marginal mean of time-varying fetal weight after 24 week pregnancy: When fitting random effects model, we obtained the parameter estimated intercept and slope of a simple linear regression model for modeling the mean of each baby’s fetal weight by time after 24 week pregnancy, and then found that the predictive factors affecting the marginal mean of time-varying fetal weight after 24 week pregnancy included the examining times, prior history of cesarean section, maternal age ≤ 24 years, pre-pregnancy weight, pregnancy weight gain, 30 ≤ pre-pregnancy BMI < 35 (moderate obesity), pregnancy-induced hypertension, gestational diabetes mellitus, and eclampsia. 2. The predictive factors that affected the mean of newborn’s birth weight: After correcting the estimation bias due to measurement errors, the predictive factors that affected the mean of newborn’s birth weight included the fetal weight’s intercept, fetal weight’s slope, male infant, parity (number of live born infants), mother’s height, mother’s pre-pregnancy weight, mother’s pregnancy weight gain, gestation weeks, gestation ≥37 weeks, 24 ≤ pre-pregnancy BMI < 27(overweight), fetal distress, and asthma. After further adjusting for the estimation bias caused by the endogenous cova-riates, the predictive factors that affected the mean of newborn’s birth weight in-cluded the abnormality of fetal weight’s slope (i.e., fetal weight’s slope ≤ 150g/week), male infant, parity (number of live born infants), mother’s height, mother’s pre-pregnancy weight, mother’s pregnancy weight gain, mother’s weight gain ≤ 5 kg, gestation weeks, 30 ≤ pre-pregnancy BMI< 35 (moderate obesity), gestational diabetes mellitus, and eclampsia. 3. Plot of the predicted quantiles of time-varying fetal weight after 24 week pregnancy: After plotting the predicted 5th, 25th, 50th, 75th, and 95th percentiles of the fetal weight over 24 weeks obtained from the fitted quantile regression models, we found that the pregnant woman after 38 gestation weeks, the fetal weight growth speed gradually slow down gently, at which the predicted 50th and 95th percentiles of the fetal weight were 3000 and 3500 grams respectively.

The effective harmonic estimation for power signals is always an important task in the field of power quality assessment. Due to the development of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI), monitoring of power quality has attracted much attention in recent years. Even though the technology of instrumentation has grown up, the advanced analysis algorithms are still not widely adopted. This is because these approaches usually suffer from the computational consumptions. To reduce the cost and to promote the implementations of power quality monitoring devices in AMI, the finite-word-length (FWL) effects of Kalman filter are taken into account. With the considered effects and related analysis of robustness, the optimal implementations of Kalman filter can be determined and redesigned for the required hardware.

In the middle of 2000s, international commodity prices reach their 40-year high. To explore the impacts of rising commodity prices on inflation in Taiwan during this period, this study employs the framework of new Keynesian Phillips curve to investigate pass-through effects of money supply as well as international energy, metals and minerals, and agricultural material prices on inflation in Taiwan from 2001 to 2012. Rolling estimation is also used to examine trends of these pass-through effects. The results show that international commodity prices basically have no big influence on our domestic prices of many consumer goods. In contrast, the impact of money supply on our domestic prices is stronger. Moreover, pass-through effects of international commodity prices on different categories of consumer goods are dissimilar. The pass-through effects of energy prices are not as important as expected. Finally, the pass-through effects of money supply on our consumer prices exhibit downward trends.

Ovarian cancer is not the most common tumor in gynecology department, but it is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy. The first part is to find the important variates between different cell types. We use Kaplan-Meier curve to analysis the survival curves with different cell types, and test whether the curves are different by log-rank test. The second part, we were interested in the correlation of the risk factors and survival. The traditional Cox proportional hazards model has been used to identify independent risk factors without considering time effect. The objective of this study was to explore whether the risk factors in ovarian cancer had time-varying effects on survival. We shared the R package on internet for download. The final section is to model patients'' CA125 by time. We can roughly classify patients into two types with the tendency of CA125. After treatment, the perform of CA125 will keep stable continuously or get rise eventually. Therefore, we use nonlinear mixed-effects model with Bayesian hierarchical framework to analysis the longitudinal data. Data used in this study was from Kaohsiung Veteran''s General Hospital from 1995 to end of 2011.

With the advances in transportation and information technology, people of different nationalities have more opportunities to contact and even contribute to the transnational marriage. The purpose of this study were to use the statistical methodologies such as random effects model, the correction of the estimation bias due to the measurement errors and the endogeneity of some covariates in multiple linear regression model, the quantile regression model, and the multiple logistic regression model to compare the difference of the predictive factors that affected the rate of time-varying fetal weight after 24 week pregnancy and the predictive factors which affected the mean of newborn’s birth weight between native married women in Taiwan and foreign brides in Taiwan. The main findings are as follows:Using the method of ordinary least square to estimate the effects of pregnant mothers of newborn’s birth weight will underestimate the parameters if we omit the amendments to the method of measurement errors. After correcting the estimation bias due to measurement errors, we found that no matter what nationality the mother is, the predictive factors that affected the mean of newborn’s birth weight included the fetal weight’s intercept, fetal weight’s slope, gestation weeks, male infant, and the prior history of cesarean section. According to the predicted quantiles of time-varying fetal weight after 24 week pregnancy, we get that the pregnant woman after 38 gestation weeks, the fetal weight growth speed gradually slow down gently. And the rate of time-varying fetal weight of native women was relative higher than the foreign brides. The predictive factors that affected the abnormal rate of time-varying fetal weight of the native expectant women included the habitual abortion, and pregnancy-induced hypertension. The predictive factors that affected the abnormal rate of time-varying fetal weight of the native expectant women included the number of live born infants, the appropriateness of a prenatal examination, and mother’s weight gain ≧ 20 kg.

Capital asset pricing model (CAPM) has become a fundamental tool in finance for assessing the cost of capital, risk management, portfolio diversification and other financial assets. It is generally believed that the risks of assets should change over time or vary with the market returns. In this study, we propose a time-varying market risk (beta) for CAPM which adds a smooth transition function as a regime switching function, and fit a GARCH model in variance equation to consider the dynamic volatility. We use the quantile regression technique to investigate the change of market risk under various market conditions. We introduce a smooth transition CAPM that can capture nonlinear behavior both in the mean and volatility in all quantile levels. The parameter estimation is within the Bayesian framework. We employ three of stocks from the Dow Jones Industrial Stocks to demonstrate our proposed model. We use deviance information criterion (DIC) in a comparison of our proposed model with the previous models. Our study shows that the proposed model is more appropriate for the data. The proposed model is more general and its coefficients have greater flexibility with a smooth transition function.

Повний текст джерелаIn systems with time-delay, the evolution of a system is not uniquely determined by the state at the current time. The history of the state must be known for a time period of finite duration, where the duration is called delay and determines the memory length of the system. In this work, fundamental effects arising from a temporal variation of the time-delay are investigated. In the first part, two classes of periodically time-varying delays are introduced. They are related to a specific dynamics of a one-dimensional iterated map that is defined by the time-varying delay. Referring to the related map dynamics the classes are called conservative or dissipative. Systems with conservative delay can be transformed into systems with constant delay, and thus have the same characteristic properties as constant delay systems. In contrast, there are fundamental differences, for instance, in the tangent space dynamics, between systems with dissipative delay and systems with constant delay. In the second part, these results are applied to systems with a delay that is considered large compared to the internal relaxation time of the system. It is shown that a mechanism induced by dissipative delays leads to new kinds of regular and chaotic dynamics. The dynamics caused by the so-called resonant Doppler effect is fundamentally different from the behavior known from systems with constant delay. For instance, the chaotic attractors in systems with dissipative delay are very low-dimensional compared to typical ones arising in systems with constant delay. An example of this new kind of low-dimensional dynamics is given by the so-called Laminar Chaos. It is characterized by nearly constant laminar phases of periodic duration, where the amplitude varies chaotically. In the third part of this work, it is shown that Laminar Chaos is a robust phenomenon, which survives perturbations such as noise and can be observed experimentally. Therefore experimental data is provided and a nonlinear delayed Langevin equation is analyzed. Using the robust features that characterize Laminar Chaos, methods for time series analysis are developed, which enable us to detect Laminar Chaos without the knowledge of the specific system that has generated the time series. By these methods Laminar Chaos can be detected even for comparably large noise strengths, where the characteristic properties are nearly invisible to the eye.:1. Introduction 2.

The implementation of OFDM-based physical layers suffers the effect of In-phase and Quadrature-phase (I/Q) imbalances in the receiver end. The I/Q imbalances can severely limit the achievable operating SNR, the constellation sizes and data rates. In this thesis, the effect of I/Q imbalances in OFDM systems is studied and algorithms for compensating the imbalances are proposed. The algorithms include least-squares, LMS, and NLMS equalization schemes. Computer simulations show that LS and NLMS algorithms have better performance. Also, we discuss the I/Q imbalances under a time-varying channel with high Doppler shift (1000 Hz). The decision-directed equalizer and two scattered pilot tone arrangements are exploited for channel estimations Different interpolation algorithms are also discussed. For a given pilot density, we have a BER level of to . We have compared the performances for all schemes with QPSK and 16-QAM as modulation schemes. The results are given by computer simulations.

In the underwater communication testing platform, the interactions between acoustic signals and boundaries may give the multipath effects. The wave effect and transducer motion cause the time variability which makes the frequencies dispersive or amplitude variation and arrival time lag variation (ATLV) in the channel. These two effects became a serious problem which will induce severe inter-symbol interference (ISI) in the received signal. In this paper, the channel boundary interactions were simulated using image method and random analysis was conducted to represent the time varying multipath condition in the channel impulse response (CIR). The ATLV and amplitude variation was determined by oscillations, wave height and relative velocity Doppler effects (RVD) of the transducer. Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK) was used to modulate and demodulate the signal. Furthermore, time reversal mirror (TRM) was proposed to focus energy thus mitigating the effects of the multipath dispersion and minimizing the Inter-symbol Interference (ISI) of time varying condition. Bit error rates (BER) were evaluated with compared the communications performances between using TRM and Non-TRM processes. The simulation results show that TRM is effective to reduce the BER from multipath effect and overcomes slow time varying multipath condition.

In this study, minor-addition elements such as Si, Co, Cr, W, Mo and Ti were added into matrix to improve the wettability between the diamonds and Cu matrix. The pressureless liquid phase sintering technique adopted in this study provides a low-cost method for producing diamond/Cu composites with high potential for industrial mass-production. Thermal properties of the diamond/Cu-Ti composites fabricated by pressureless liquid phase sintering at 1373 K with variations in Ti contents and in sintering times were thoroughly investigated. SEM and TEM analyses were utilized to study the growth mechanism of the TiC at the interface between diamonds and Cu matrix. A probable mechanism of the interface structure formation was proposed. The composites exhibited thermal conductivity as high as 620 W/m•K for 50 vol% diamond/Cu-0.6 at% Ti composite with diamond particle size of 300 µm. This value comes up to 85% of the thermal conductivity calculated by Hasselman and Johnson (H-J) theoretical analysis. Under these conditions a suitable coefficient of thermal expansion of 6.9 ppm/K was obtained.
