Bayesian and nonBayesian Techniques for Forecasting Monthly Cattle Prices
… Box-Jenkins techniques. Vector autoregressions (VARs), classical and Bayesian, comprise the multivariate time series models. The specification of VARs is based on the Scharwz Bayesian information (SBIC), Akaike's information (AIC) and final prediction error (FPE) criteria.

Three essays in macroeconomic forecasting using Bayesian model selection
… performance of vector autoregressions (VARs) when the set of available predictors is inconveniently large to handle with methods and diagnostics used in traditional small-scale models. First, I summarize available information from a large dataset into a considerably smaller set of …

Variance reduction techniques for estimating quantiles and value-at-risk
… In finance, quantiles are called values-at-risk (VARs), and they are widely used in the financial industry to measure portfolio risk. When the cumulative distribution function is unknown, the quantile can not be computed exactly and must be estimated. In addition to computing a point estimate for …

Naturalistic Inquiry: An Appropriate Method for Evaluating Customer Training A Case Study of a Computer System Value-Added Reseller
… to computer system value-added-resellers (VARs). Four research questions were identified, each addressing the use of naturalistic inquiry in this setting. Case study methodology was selected as the most effective approach to demonstrate use of this type of evaluation. In order to limit the …

Statliga hemligheter : en analys av transparensmekanismerna i statligt ägda bolag i Finland
… transparenskraven är stora mellan ett aktiebolag vars uppgift är att bedriva marknadsmässig verksamhet och ett bolag som sköter ett offentligt uppdrag i monopolställning. Denna avhandling skrapar ytan av transparensproblematiken i aktiebolag som ägs av offentliga instanser. Statens aktiebolag är, …

Longitudinal air permeability of lodgepole pine
… two varieties of lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta, vars. latifolia and murrayana) were measured with a steady state apparatus. It was found that the mean ratio of sapwood to heartwood permeability was ca. 10:1 for both varieties. The mean ratio of var. latifolia to murrayana was 1.5:5 and 1.75:5 for …

Reconsidering the role of nominal monetary policy variables: evidence from four major economies
… general-to-specific modelling methodology and VARs model. The empirical results suggest that quantitative variables (money aggregates and GDP-circulation credit) have more predictive power for nominal GDP than price variables (interest rates). Meanwhile the GDP-circulation credit displays more …
