A complexity score derived from principal components analysis of nonlinear order measures

Giuliani, Alessandro; Colafranceschi, Mauro; Webber, … - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 301 (2001) 1, pp. 567-588

The generation of a global “complexity” score for numerical series was derived from a principal components analysis of a group of nonlinear measures of experimental as well simulated series. The concept of complexity was demonstrated to be independent from other descriptors of ordered series...

Overtime Work, Overtime Compensation and the Distribution of Economic Well-Being Evidence for the West Germany and Great Britain

Pannenberg, Markus; Wagner, Gert G. - Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) - 2001

Using panel data for West Germany and Great Britain, we show that there are striking differences in overtime work and overtime compensation in the two countries in the 1990s. Our estimates reveal that the observed overtime patterns affect both the evolution of the monthly labour earnings...

Measuring the Effects of Monetary Policy in the Euro Area: The Role of Anticipated Policy

Gottschalk, Jan; Höppner, Florian - Institut für Weltwirtschaft (IfW) - 2001

This paper investigates within a SVAR framework the effects of anticipated monetary policy in the euro area. Building on a procedure recently proposed by Cochrane which yields the response of output to an anticipated monetary policy impulse, we show that in the past twenty years anticipated...
