Managing sustainable supply chain operations in dynamic three-dimensional (3D) environments is a significant challenge. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) offer transformative solutions to supply chains. This study aims to enhance sustainable supply chain management by considering new opportunities...

The standard approach to solving linear DSGE models is to apply the QZ method. It is a one-shot algorithm that leaves the researcher with little alternative than to seek a different algorithm should the result be numerically unsatisfactory. We develop an iterative implementation of QZ that...

Leib et al. (2024) examine how artificial intelligence (AI) generated advice affects dishonesty compared to equivalent human advice in a laboratory experiment. In their preferred empirical specification, the authors report that dishonesty-promoting advice increases dishonest behavior by...

When inter-arrival times between events follow an exponential distribution, this implies a Poisson frequency of events, as both models assume events occur independently and at a constant average rate. However, these assumptions are often violated in real-insurance applications. When the rate at...

Investigating how systemic risk originates and spreads across the financial system poses an inherently compositional question, i.e., a question concerning the joint distribution of relative risk share across several interdependent contributors. To address this question, we propose a weighted...

We study the propensity of independent algorithms to collude in repeated Cournot duopoly games. Specifically, we investigate the predictive power of different oligopoly and bargaining solutions regarding the effect of asymmetry between firms. We find that both consumers and firms can benefit...

This paper investigates the impact of social media algorithms on mental health outcomes. I exploit a quasi-experimental setting combining data from the Dutch Longitudinal Internet Studies for the Social Sciences (LISS) coupled with the introduction of the algorithmic feed on Instagram in 2016. I...

Logistic regression is widely used in complex data analysis. When predictors are at individual level and the response at aggregate level, logistic regression can be estimated using the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method with the joint likelihood function formed by Poisson binomial...

This study evaluates the effectiveness of the Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm III (NSGA-III) in comparison to the traditional Mean-Variance optimization method for financial portfolio management. Leveraging a dataset of global financial assets, we applied both approaches to optimize...

Based on the job demands-resources (JD-R) model, this study aims to investigate how algorithmic behavioral constraint and algorithmic tracking evaluation affect gig workers' turnover intention by increasing relative deprivation and the extent to which this mediating role is moderated by...

This study examines the application of machine learning models to predict financial performance in various sectors, using data from 21 companies listed in the BIST100 index (2013-2023). The primary objective is to assess the potential of these models in improving financial forecast accuracy and...

We study the Latent Dirichlet Allocation model, a popular Bayesian algorithm for text analysis. We show that the model's parameters are not identified, which suggests that the choice of prior matters. We characterize the range of values that the posterior mean of a given functional of the...
