This paper examines the consequences of introducing a normally distributed effect into a system where the dependent variable is ordered and the explanatory variable is ordered and endogenous. Using simulation techniques we show that a naive bivariate ordered probit estimator which fails to take...

This paper discusses measurement of socioeconomic inequalities in prevalence of a health condition. As its point of departure, it uses the recent exchange between Guido Erreygers and Adam Wagstaff in this journal, where they discuss merits of their own corrections of the frequently used...

In this paper we develop a methodology for identifying a population group surveyed latently in the (target) survey relevant for further processing, for example poverty calculations, but surveyed explicitly in another (source) survey, not suitable for such processing. Identification is achieved...

<Para ID="Par1">In this paper, we consider an inverse problem of identifying one or more unknown cavities in a heat conductor. We propose an algorithm for reconstructing the position and shape of the unknown cavities using the measured surface temperature of the heat conductor. The heat conductor is discretized...</para>
