This paper presents a classical estimation problem for calculating the energy generated by photovoltaic solar systems, on daily, annual, regional and national basis. Our methodology relies two data sources: PVOutput, an online portal with production measurements, modelled irradiance available large parts of Africa Europe, from Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute. Combining these, we obta...

Learning individual-level causal effects from observational data, such as inferring the most effective medication for a specific patient, is a problem of growing importance for policy makers. The most important aspect of inferring causal effects from observational data is the handling of confounders, factors that affect both an intervention and its outcome. A carefully designed observational st...

Observational determinism is a security property that characterizes secure information flow for multithreaded programs. Most of the methods that have been used to verify observational determinism are based on either type systems or conventional model checking techniques. A conventional model checker is stateful and often verifies a system model usually constructed manually. As these methods are...

A large literature provides strong empirical support for the influence of parenting on child outcomes. The current study addresses enduring research questions testing the importance of early parenting behavior to children's adjustment. Specifically, we developed and tested a novel multi-method observational measure of parental positive behavior support at age 2. Next, we tested whether early pa...
