Coal Consumption Reduction in Shandong Province: A Dynamic Vector Autoregression Model

Coal Consumption Reduction in Shandong Province: A Dynamic Vector Autoregression Model

Coal consumption and carbon dioxide emissions from coal combustion in China are attracting increasing attention worldwide. Between 1990 and 2013, the coal consumption in Shandong Province increased by approximately 5.29 times. Meanwhile, the proportion of coal consumption of Shandong Province to China rose from 7.6% to 10.8%, and to the world, it rose from 1.8% to 5.5%. Identifying the drivers ...

A Bayesian Poisson Vector Autoregression Model

Multivariate count models are rare in political science, despite the presence of many count time series. This article develops a new Bayesian Poisson vector autoregression (BaP-VAR) model that can characterize endogenous dynamic counts with no restrictions on the contemporaneous correlations. Impulse responses, decomposition of the forecast errors, and dynamic multiplier methods for the effects...

Estimation of a Structural Vector Autoregression Model Using Non-Gaussianity

Analysis of causal effects between continuous-valued variables typically uses either autoregressive models or structural equation models with instantaneous effects. Estimation of Gaussian, linear structural equation models poses serious identifiability problems, which is why it was recently proposed to use non-Gaussian models. Here, we show how to combine the non-Gaussian instantaneous model wi...

DTMP: Energy Consumption Reduction in Body Area Networks Using a Dynamic Traffic Management Protocol

Advances in medical sciences with other fields of science and technology is closely casual profound mutations in different branches of science and methods for providing medical services affect the lives of its descriptor. Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) represents such a leap. Those networks excite new branches in the world of telemedicine. Small wireless sensors, to be quite precise and calc...
