Efficient routines for multidimensional numerical integration are provided by quasi-Monte Carlo methods. These methods are based on evaluating the integrand at a set of representative points of the integration area. A set may be called representative if it shows a low discrepancy. However, in...

A mixed, geographically weighted regression (GWR) model is useful in the situation where certain explanatory variables influencing the response are global while others are local. Undoubtedly, how to identify these two types of the explanatory variables is essential for building such a model....

Zusammenfassung Monte Carlo Methoden haben sich auf vielen Gebieten der Statistik und Ökonometrie als wertvolles Instrument erwiesen. Die übliche Verwendung von Pseudozufallszahlen führt dazu, daß der Zusammenhang zwischen einem allgemeinen Zufallsbegriff und der Anwendung in Monte Carlo...
