Parametrically guided generalised additive models with application to mergers and acquisitions data

JOURNAL OF NONPARAMETRIC STATISTICS, 25(1), 109–128.

Contributors: J. Fan*, A. Maity n, Y. Wang* & Y. Wu n

author keywords: generalised additive model; leveraged buyout; local polynomial; mergers and acquisitions; parametric guide
TL;DR: An estimation procedure where the prior information is used as a parametric guide to fit the additive model is proposed and it is shown that when a good guide is chosen, the asymptotic variance of the estimates can be reduced significantly while keeping theAsymptosis variance same as the unguided estimator.

Assessing the safety of collars used to attach predation deterrent devices and ID tags to pet cats

ANIMAL WELFARE, 22(1), 95–105.

By: M. Calver*, G. Adams*, W. Clark* & K. Pollock n

author keywords: animal welfare; cat collar; Felis catus; pet cats; urban wildlife; wildlife protection
TL;DR: Fighting and road accidents are greater hazards to roaming cats than collars, which offer the compensatory benefits of mounting predation deterrents and ID tags, while collar-mounted ID enhances return of lost animals. (via Semantic Scholar)
