Tax competition when firms choose their organizational form: Should tax loopholes for multinationals be closed?
We analyze a sequential game between two symmetric countries when firms can invest in a multinational structure that confers tax savings.

Whether a coordinated reduction in the tax preferences granted to mobile firms is bene...

The context in which a speech-driven application is used (or conversely not used) can be an important signal for recognition engines, and for spoken interface design. Using large-scale logs from a widely deployed spoken system, we analyze on an aggregate level factors that are correlated with a decision to speak a web search query rather than type it. We find the factors most predictive of spok...
