Control charts are widely used to monitor the quality of industrial processes. It is quite common to assume that the random variable associated to the quality characteristic has a Normal distribution, and the control limits are defined so that the probability of obtaining a false alarm is...

We develop a mixed complementarity programming (MCP) based estimating framework for non-tariff barriers (NTBs) to examine the evolution of market access conditions in the textile and clothing sectors, working with a panel of bilateral trade data on textile and clothing trade, underlying...

This paper compares different types of simulated draws over a range of number of draws in generating Bayesian efficient designs for stated choice (SC) studies. The paper examines how closely pseudo Monte Carlo, quasi Monte Carlo and Gaussian quadrature methods are able to replicate the true...

Usually, in monitoring a proportion p, the binary observations are considered independent; however, in many real cases, there is a continuous stream of autocorrelated binary observations in which a two-state Markov chain model is applied with first-order dependence. On the other hand, the...

In some applications of statistical process monitoring, a quality characteristic can be characterized by linear regression relationships between several response variables and one explanatory variable, which is referred to as a 'multivariate simple linear profile.' It is usually assumed that the...

In many circumstances, the quality of a process or product is best characterized by a given mathematical function between a response variable and one or more explanatory variables that is typically referred to as profile. There are some investigations to monitor auto-correlated linear and...

This article examines the impact of digital transformation on changes in the sectoral structure of Ukraine's economy, other post-communist countries, and countries with highly developed economies. Firstly, we estimate the structural changes and differences in the sectoral model by gross...

The ability to accurately estimate the extent to which the failure of a bank disrupts the financial system is very valuable for regulators of the financial system. One important part of the financial system is the interbank payment system. This paper develops a robust measure, SinkRank, that...

Economic disparities between the regions of the European Union are of constant concern both for policy and economic research. In this paper we examine whether there are overlapping trends of regional development in the EU: overall convergence on the one hand and persistent or even increasing...
