This paper develops an approach to empirically demonstrate how the within-season distribution of U.S. domestic commodity support for corn differs between current-style approaches of support and revenue-based support. From a purely economic standpoint, the results show the revenue-based payment...

In this dissertation, we explore the properties of correlation structure for spatio-temporalpoint processes and a quantitative spatial process. Spatio-temporal pointprocesses are often assumed to be separable; we propose a formal approach for testingwhether a particular data set is indeed...

Semi-parametric and nonparametric modeling and inference have been widely studied duringthe last two decades. In this … manuscript, we do statistical inference based on semi-parametricand nonparametric models in several different scenarios ….Firstly, we develop a semi-parametric additivity test for nonparametric multi-dimensionalmodel. The test statistic can test two or …
