Sector specific multifactor CES elasticity of substitution and the corresponding productivity growths are jointly measured by regressing the growths of factor-wise cost shares against the growths of factor prices. We use linked input-output tables for Japan and the Republic of Korea as the data source for factor price and cost shares in two temporally distant states. We then construct a multi-sectoral general equilibrium model using the system of estimated CES unit cost functions, and evaluate the economy-wide propagation of an exogenous productivity stimuli, in terms of welfare. Further, we examine the differences between models based on a priori elasticity such as Leontief and Cobb-Douglas.

We measure elasticity of substitution between foreign and domestic commodities by two-point calibration such that the Armington aggregator can replicate the two temporally distant observations of market shares and prices. Along with the sectoral mult
ifactor CES elasticities which we estimate by regression using a set of disaggregated linked input--output observations, we integrate domestic production of two countries, namely, Japan and the Republic of Korea, with bilateral trade models and construct a bilateral general equilibrium model. Finally, we make an assessment of a tariff elimination scheme between the two countries.
We model sectoral production by serially nesting (cascading) binary compounding processes. The sequence of processes is discovered in a self-similar hierarchical structure stylized in macroscopic input-output transactions. The feedback system of unit
cost functions, with recursively estimated nest-wise CES parameters, is calibrated for sectoral productivities to replicate two temporally distant cost share structures, observed in a set of linked input--output tables. We model representative households by multifactor CES, with parameters estimated by fixed effects regressions. By the integrated dynamic general equilibrium model, we extrapolate potential structural transformations, and measure the associated welfare changes, caused by exogenous sectoral productivity shocks.
We consider the problem of evaluating the quality of startup companies. This can be quite challenging due to the rarity of successful startup companies and the complexity of factors which impact such success. In this work we collect data on tens of t
housands of startup companies, their performance, the backgrounds of their founders, and their investors. We develop a novel model for the success of a startup company based on the first passage time of a Brownian motion. The drift and diffusion of the Brownian motion associated with a startup company are a function of features based its sector, founders, and initial investors. All features are calculated using our massive dataset. Using a Bayesian approach, we are able to obtain quantitative insights about the features of successful startup companies from our model. To test the performance of our model, we use it to build a portfolio of companies where the goal is to maximize the probability of having at least one company achieve an exit (IPO or acquisition), which we refer to as winning. This $textit{picking winners}$ framework is very general and can be used to model many problems with low probability, high reward outcomes, such as pharmaceutical companies choosing drugs to develop or studios selecting movies to produce. We frame the construction of a picking winners portfolio as a combinatorial optimization problem and show that a greedy solution has strong performance guarantees. We apply the picking winners framework to the problem of choosing a portfolio of startup companies. Using our model for the exit probabilities, we are able to construct out of sample portfolios which achieve exit rates as high as 60%, which is nearly double that of top venture capital firms.
The aim of this paper is to develop a class of spatial transformation models (STM) to spatially model the varying association between imaging measures in a three-dimensional (3D) volume (or 2D surface) and a set of covariates. Our STMs include a vary
ing Box-Cox transformation model for dealing with the issue of non-Gaussian distributed imaging data and a Gaussian Markov Random Field model for incorporating spatial smoothness of the imaging data. Posterior computation proceeds via an efficient Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm. Simulations and real data analysis demonstrate that the STM significantly outperforms the voxel-wise linear model with Gaussian noise in recovering meaningful geometric patterns. Our STM is able to reveal important brain regions with morphological changes in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
This paper studies Bayesian games with general action spaces, correlated types and interdependent payoffs. We introduce the condition of ``decomposable coarser payoff-relevant information, and show that this condition is both sufficient and necessary
for the existence of pure-strategy equilibria and purification from behavioral strategies. As a consequence of our purification method, a new existence result on pure-strategy equilibria is also obtained for discontinuous Bayesian games. Illustrative applications of our results to oligopolistic competitions and all-pay auctions are provided.
