Analyzing the Effects of Partisan Correlation on Election Outcomes Using Order Statistics
(2019-04-24)The legislative representation of political parties in the United States is dependent not only on way that legislative district boundaries are drawn, but also on the way in which people are distributed across a state. That ... -
Bayesian Statistical Models of Cell-Cycle Progression at Single-Cell and Population Levels
(2014)Cell division is a biological process fundamental to all life. One aspect of the process that is still under investigation is whether or not cells in a lineage are correlated in their cell-cycle progression. Data on cell-cycle ... -
Electronic and Spin Correlations in Asymmetric Quantum Point Contacts
(2014)A quantum point contact (QPC) is a quasi-one dimensional electron system, for which the conductance is quantized in unit of $2e^2/h$. This conductance quantization can be explained in a simple single particle picture, where ... -
Time-Varying Systemic Risk: Evidence from a Dynamic Copula Model of CDS Spreads
(Economic Research Initiatives at Duke (ERID) Working Paper, 2013-05-23)This paper proposes a new class of copula-based dynamic models for high dimension conditional distributions, facilitating the estimation of a wide variety of measures of systemic risk. Our proposed models draw on successful ...
