In this paper, we propose a new class of regime shift models with exible switching mechanism that relies on a nonparametric probability function of the observed thresh- old variables. The proposed models generally embrace traditional threshold models with contaminated threshold variables or...

In this work, we propose to define Gaussian Processes indexed by multidimensional distributions. In the framework where the distributions can be modeled as i.i.d realizations of a measure on the set of distributions, we prove that the kernel defined as the quadratic distance between the...

IV regression in the context of a re-sampling is considered in the work. Comparatively, the contribution in the development is a structural identication in the IV model. The work also contains a multiplier-bootstrap justication.

Understanding the topological structure of real world networks is of huge interest in a variety of fields. One of the way to investigate this structure is to find the groups of densely connected nodes called communities. This paper presents a new non-parametric method of community detection in...
