36 results for segregation

Phase segregation, the process by which the components of a binary mixture spontaneously separate, is a key process in the evolution and design of many chemical, mechanical, and biological systems. In this work, we present a data-driven approach for the learning, modeling, and prediction of phase segregation. A direct …

Study explores how wealth dynamics change with preferential interactions in kinetic exchange models.

problem Investigate how preferential interactions affect wealth dynamics and distributions in kinetic exchange models.
method Conducted Monte Carlo simulations to explore two types of preferential interactions: one with random selection and another with wealth difference constraint.
result Emergence of quasi-oligarchic societies and segregation into economic classes observed in preferential interactions.

Cash collateral is perfect in that it provides simultaneous counterparty credit risk protection and derivatives funding. Securities are imperfect collateral, because of collateral segregation or differences in CSA haircuts and repo haircuts. Moreover, the collateral rate term structure is not observable in the repo mar…

Model shows how confidence feedback can lead to different crisis outcomes.

problem Characterizing the impact of economic recessions on different social strata.
method A self-reflexive DSGE model with heterogeneous households, varying parameters to analyze crisis typologies.
result Crisis propagation can be confined to high or low income households, depending on social network structure and income inequality.

Study uses TV news to measure climate risks affecting clean energy firms.

problem Understanding how climate risks impact clean energy firms' financial stability.
method Developed climate risk measures from TV news coverage and analyzed their effects on clean energy firms' risks.
result Increased TV news coverage of climate risks correlates with higher systematic risk and lower idiosyncratic risk for clean energy firms.

The paper characterizes brain states and transitions using functional MRI data.

problem Characterizing the dynamic reconfiguration of neural systems in brain states.
method Bayesian model-based characterization of latent brain states and posterior predictive discrepancy using the latent block model.
result The model detects transitions between latent brain states and identifies distinctive community patterns in task-fMRI data.

problem Determining if correlations in network studies are due to contagion or latent confounding.
method Segregated graph representation, likelihood ratio tests, network causal effect estimation strategies.
result Proposes methods to estimate network causal effects under full interference scenarios.

Study multi-currency markets with multiple interest rates and collateral.

problem Characterize absence of arbitrage in a multi-currency market.
method Generalize results from Bielecki and Rutkowski (2015) to a multi-currency framework, linking with Piterbarg (2012), Moreni and Pallavicini (2017), and Fujii et al. (2010b). Characterize absence of arbitrage without collateral, then study collateralization schemes under various conventions.
result Complete study of absence of arbitrage and pricing in multi-currency markets with multiple interest rates and collateral.
