This paper presents new identi…cation results for the class of structural dynamic discrete choice models that are built upon the framework of the structural discrete Markov decision processes proposed by Rust (1994). We demonstrate how to semiparametrically identify the deep structural parameters of interest in the case where utility function of one choice in the model is parametric but the dis...

Stochastic sequential bargaining games (Merlo and Wilson (1995, 1998)) have found wide applications in various …elds including political economy and macroeconomics due to their ‡exibility in explaining delays in reaching an agreement. In this paper, we present new results in nonparametric identi…cation of such models under di¤erent scenarios of data availability. First, we give conditions for a...

In a multi-user system where training is not available, blind channel identi cation and equalization become essential. In this paper, we present a new method that utilizes second order statistics for channel parameter estimation and optimum ltering. The identi cation algorithm is simple and relies on an outer-product decomposition and partial information of the desired signal channel. It allows...

1. Abstract: The construction of facial composites by assembling individual facial features is common in criminal investigations. Arguably, the best known such method is E-FIT (electronic facial identication technique). However, although humans have excellent facial recognition ability, it is widely recognised that they often have great difficulty recalling facial characteristics in sufficient ...

A novel low-rate identication method for high power ampliers with memory-effect is presented. It is demonstrated that the required bandwidth of the feedback signal is not required to be greater than twice the signal modulation bandwidth, but is instead determined by the number of feedback samples and the degree of freedom of coefcients in the behavioral model. As the experimental measurements a...

Dialogue move recognition is taken as being representative of a class of spoken language applications where inference about high level semantic meaning is required from lower level acoustic, phonetic or word based features. Topic identication is another such application. In the particular case of inference from words, the multinomial distribution is shown to be inadequate for modelling word fre...

Seawater ornamental fish is an Indonesian fauna whose are very diverse and easily infested with parasite. Therefore, the quarantine procedures was necessary to prevent spread of parasitic disease. The purpose this study examine identication parasites in marine before transported from Fish Quarantine, Quality Control Safety Fishery Products Denpasar, Bali. Parasite examination carried out by con...
