This paper employs a small open economy DSGE model, estimated over 1986-2009, to decompose the dynamic influence of domestic and international prices on the Canada-US real exchange rate. While the real exchange rate mimics the dynamic behavior of the relat ...

We consider a generic scenario of content browsing where a client is presented with a catalogue of items of interest. Upon the selection of an item from a page of the catalogue, the client can choose the next item to browse from a list of related items pre ...

We investigate the dynamic behavior of concrete in relation to its composition within a computational framework (FEM). Concrete is modeled using a meso-mechanical approach in which aggregates and mortar are represented explicitly. Both continuum phases are ...
In clinical diagnostics, the fluidic part for sample-preparation should not absorb any of the substances of interest. In this study, the absorption of 4 different interleukins was investigated in a newly developed microfluidic blood filtration element (BFE ...
The 1987 market crash was associated with a dramatic and permanent steepening of the implied volatility curve for equity index options, despite minimal changes in aggregate consumption. We explain these events within a general equilibrium framework in whic ...
We consider a transmission of a delay-sensitive data stream (e. g., a video call) from a single source to a single destination. The reliability of this transmission may suffer from bursty packet losses - the predominant type of failures in today's Internet ...
There is an increasing interest in analyzing social interaction from mobile sensor data, and smartphones are rapidly becoming the most attractive sensing option. We propose a new probabilistic relational model to analyze long-term dynamic social networks c ...
We combine low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and measurements of the catalytic activity to establish a structure-reactivity correlation for the CO oxidation on Pt nanoclusters on rutile TiO2(110)-(1 x 1). Annealing of the clusters to 1100 K lea ...
This paper provides a robustness analysis of the method we recently developed for rhythmic movement assistance using adaptive oscillators. An adaptive oscillator is a mathematical tool capable of extracting high-level features (i.e. amplitude, frequency, o ...
The search for robust features for face recognition in uncontrolled environments is an important topic of research. In particular, there is a high interest in Gabor-based features which have invariance properties to simple geometrical transformations. In t ...
