... The model we study in this paper follows ideas developed by Landwehr et al. (2014), but em- ploys more flexible semiparametric density models. Specifically, we place a Gaussian process prior over densities ... See full document

... To assume independence across private value can be restrictive since one can expect some degree of affiliation or positive correlation among private values. Thus, a second natural extension of our framework is to ... See full document

... where th e function T takes the form (6.3), and we assume th a t E [eij|rj] = 0. We may then estim ate the unknown function A by for example least squares. In practice this means th a t we choose A such th a t th e ... See full document

... Researchers have distinguished between contagion and interdependence as two potential channels of negative coexceedances (Forbes and Rigobon, 2002). According to Forbes and Rigobon (2002), during tranquil time periods a ... See full document

... The semiparametric AFT model assumes that the random errors are i . i . d . and independent of the covariates. Most existing estimation methods rely on this assumption. However, in many applications, the random ... See full document
