Multiple imputation of time series: an application to the construction of historical price indexes
(2005)
Time series in many areas of application, and notably in the social sciences, are frequently incomplete. This is particularly annoying when we need to have complete data, for instance to compute indexes as a weighted average ...
Kalman Filtering in R
(Journal of Statistical Software, 2011-03)
Support in R for state space estimation via Kalman filtering was limited to one package, until fairly recently. In the last five years, the situation has changed with no less than four additional packages offering general ...
Landscape valuation through discrete choice experiments: Current practice and future research reflections
(2012)
The Discrete Choice Experiments (DCEs) are a fast growing landscape valuation technique. This paper describes some recent applications implemented in this field and
identifies their attributes, levels, payment vehicles, ...

El análisis de tablas múltiples ha seguido cuatro direcciones básicas: el Análisis Procusteano, la metodología STATIS, el Análisis Factorial Múltiple y el Análisis Canónico Generalizado. Estos métodos, en general, han sido ...
The influence of cultural identity on the WTP to protect natural resources: some empirical evidence
(2008)
This paper shows that cultural identity may have considerable influence on the WTP to protect natural resources. The Basque Country, the region with the highest ethnic homogeneity in Europe, serves as an example to illustrate ...
The management of Natura 2000 Network sites: a discrete choice experiment approach
(2011)
One of the main problems that public institutions face in the management of protected areas, such as the European Natura 2000 network, is how to design and implement sustainable management plans accounting both for the ...
Selecting random parameters in discrete choice experiment for environmental valuation: A simulation experiment
(2010)
This paper examines the various tests commonly used to select random parameters in choice modelling. The most common procedures for selecting random parameters are: the Lagrange Multiplier test as proposed by McFadden and ...
Output dynamics in an endogenous growth model
(2003-07)
The aim of this paper is to analyze whether endogenous growth RBC models are consistent with two stylized facts about U.S. output dynamics. First, GNP growth is positively correlated in the short run and it has a weak ...
