The purpose of the research reported in this article is to establish a structural explanation of physical phenomena observed or experimented on natural neural networks and especially on the brain. A simplified model based on double stochasticity properties, concentrates on the synaptic structure...

Quantum computing allows a significant speed-up over traditional CPU- and GPU-based algorithms when applied to particular mathematical challenges such as optimisation and simulation. Despite promising advances and extensive research in hard- and software developments, currently available quantum...

This paper investigates how technology affects mortgage foreclosure markets. Exploiting the staggered adoption of electronic bidding across adjoined Florida’s counties, I show that foreclosure auction success increases by 27%, and price discounts shrink by 42%. The effects are the largest in...

At present, many video editing software have been created, but what they all have in common is that they require manual work to edit. And it takes a lot of time and the user needs to watch each frame before editing. In this paper, we have developed a program about AI intelligence. The most...

We run experiments of first-price auctions with two groups, by which we directly detect the presence of bidders' loss aversion. Each human bidder bids against three pre-programmed computer bidders -- computers independently draw their values from the uniform distribution and bid their values in...

In the first quarter of 2022, the Stanford Computational Antitrust project team invited the partnering antitrust agencies to share their advances in implementing computational tools. Here are the results of the survey

We assess the effects of the computerization of import transactions in Colombia, on both activity at ports and the performance of manufacturing firms. The reform was expected to increase efficiency and reduce corruption at ports. We rely on its staggered implementation for identification. We...

Digital transformation capability (DTC), as an important capability to use digital technology to innovate business and management models, enables retailers reduce costs, and enhance production. It is the main driving force for restructuring the business ecosystem of retailers. To develop the DTC...

Newspapers and websites are reporting with strong emphasys the successes of quantum computing, obtained by the new quantum machines. It is therefore natural to ask ourselves some questions about these machines, in particular how do they operate, where are they physically and what is needed for...

Agent-based computational economics (ACE) has been attracting attention in recent years. This method, however, is challenging because of the complexity of the model’s structure due to the coexistence of systems for decision-making and those involved in financial transactions. Further, ACE...
