The classical approach to testing for structural change employs retrospective tests using a historical data set of a given length. Here we consider a wide array of fluctuation-type tests in a monitoring situation - given a history period for which a regression relationship is known to be stable,...

Autoren-Abstract: This paper introduces ideas and methods for testing for structural change in linear regression models and presents how these have been realized in an R package called strucchange. It features tests from the generalized fluctuation test framework as well as from the F test (Chow...

The assessment of the performance of learners by means of benchmark experiments is established exercise. In practice, benchmark studies are a tool to compare the performance of several competing algorithms for a certain learning problem. Cross-validation or resampling techniques are commonly...

Reproducibility of economic research has attracted considerable attention in recentyears. So far, the discussion has focused on reproducibility of empirical analyses. Thispaper addresses a further aspect of reproducibility, the reproducibility of computationalexperiments. We examine the current...
