We generalize the bandit process with a covariate introduced by Woodroofe in several significant directions: a linear regression model characterizing the unknown arm, an unknown variance for regression residuals and general discounting sequence for a non-stationary model. With the Bayesian...

This article introduces a class of generalized duration models and shows that the autoregressive conditional duration (ACD) models and stochastic conditional duration (SCD) models discussed in the literature are special cases. The martingale estimating functions approach, which provides a...
