What happens after a default: the conditional density approach

We present a general model for default time, making precise the role of the intensity process, and showing that this process allows for a knowledge of the conditional distribution of the default only “before the default”. This lack of information is crucial while working in a multi-default setting. In a single default case, the knowledge of the intensity process does not allow to compute the pr...

What Happens After A Technology Shock? A Bayesian Perspective

This paper investigates the effect of a positive technology shock on per capita hours worked within the class of Bayesian Vector Auto-Regressive [BVAR] models. Such a framework avoids the current debate regarding the specification issue of per capita hours [level versus first-difference stationary]. Six priors are considered and for each, we examine the impulse responses of per capita hours fol...

A chemotherapy side-effect, where patients report difficulty during performance of familiar cognitive tasks, is named chemo fog or chemobrain. Traditional neuropsychological assessments may not be sensitive enough to detect these subtle chemotherapy-related cognitive impairments (or CRCI). The advent of MRI and fMRI to...
