The aim of this study is to analyze and compare the results from Propensity Score Matching (PSM) and Spatial Hedonic Prices (SHP) methodologies estimating value fluctuations on residential proprieties in Bogotá (Colombia). Specifically, this study examines value fluctuations on residential...

This article is an empirical study of residential land values in the vicinity of the TransMilenio system (Bus Rapid Transit, BRT) in Bogota´ (Colombia). The results have been established through impact evaluation by means of nonparameteric approaches (Propensity Score Matching, PSM) and...

General parametric forms are assumed for the conditional mean λ_{t}(θ₀) and variance υ_{t}(ξ₀) of a time series. These conditional moments can for instance be derived from count time series, Autoregressive Conditional Duration (ACD) or Generalized Autoregressive Score (GAS) models. In...
