The inclusion of spatial correlation of house price in hedonic pricing model may produce better marginal implicit price estimate(s) of the environmental variable(s) of interest. Most applications where a spatial econometric model is applied to the estimation of a hedonic property value model...

S<italic>u zhi</italic> education has been adopted in schools in China to correct the overemphasis on test scores and to promote whole-person development. Although <italic>su zhi</italic> reform is not based on a capability approach, using such an approach helps to reveal the internal contradiction of the policy framework. A...

Wind turbine wakes have significant effects on the production efficiency and fatigue loads, and these effects should be considered in the optimization of wind turbine structure and wind farm layouts. In this paper, a numerical model combining Lagrangian dynamic large-eddy models and actuator...

The existing personnel selection decisions in practice are based on the evaluation of job seeker's human capital, and it may be difficult to make personnel-job matching and make each party satisfy. Therefore, this paper puts forward a new personnel selection method by consideration of bilateral...

This paper shows that politicians' pressure to climb the career ladder increases bank risk exposure in their region. Chinese local politicians are set growth targets in their region that are relative to each other. Growth is stimulated by debt-financed programs which are mainly financed via bank...

The situation of plants on the slope can reflect the effect of vegetation restoration during the process of artificial vegetation recovery. Taking the typical damaged slope of Wenchuan earthquake area as the research object, through observing the vegetation situation of deserted slope, the...

We consider a varying coefficient regression model for sparse functional data, with time varying response variable depending linearly on some time independent covariates with coefficients as functions of time dependent covariates. Based on spline smoothing, we propose data driven simultaneous...

The assembled structures of triangular symmetrically shape molecules with three functional groups, trimesic acid (TMA) and melamine, have been investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy on Highly Oriented Pyrolytic Graphite (HOPG) in ambient. Hexagonal porous structures are formed by these...

It is well-known that individual diversity is a typical feature within the collective population. To model this kind of characteristics, we propose an evolutionary model of public goods game with two types of players (named as A and B), where players are located on the sites of a square lattice...
