Shareholder coordination, investment horizon and hedge fund activism
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022)
I examine the role of institutional investors in hedge fund activists' target selection. I argue that the coordination power and the investment horizon of institutional investors are important factors in explaining target ...
Security and Reliability Performance of Noise-Loop Modulation: Theoretical Analysis and Experimentation
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2022)
Security is a crucial feature of current (5G) and even more for future (6G) communication networks. While the innate nature of the wireless channel is an issue for guaranteeing security, its physical characteristics can ...
Heuristic Optimization Approaches for Capacitor Sizing and Placement: A Case Study in Kazakhstan
(Mdpi, 2022)
Two methods for estimating the near-optimal positions and sizes of capacitors in radial distribution networks are presented. The first model assumes fixed-size capacitors, while the second model assumes controllable ...
Profitability and drug discovery
(Oxford Univ Press, 2022)
Pharmaceutical firms are highly profitable due to high markups enabled by high drug prices. This is justified by the argument that high profits provide incentives for innovation and help fund high research and development ...
Assessing the impact of minor modifications on the interior structure of GRU: GRU1 and GRU2
(Wiley, 2022)
In this study, two GRU variants named GRU1 and GRU2 are proposed by employing simple changes to the internal structure of the standard GRU, which is one of the popular RNN variants. Comparative experiments are conducted ...
Spin-s spin-glass phases in the d=3 Ising model
(Amer Physical Soc, 2021)
All higher-spin (s >= 1/2) Ising spin glasses are studied by renormalization-group theory in spatial dimension d = 3, exactly on a d = 3 hierarchical model and, simultaneously, by the Migdal-Kadanoff approximation on the ...
Regression of Large-Scale Path Loss Parameters Using Deep Neural Networks
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2022)
Path loss exponent and shadowing factor are among important wireless channel parameters. These parameters can be estimated using field measurements or ray-tracing simulations, which are costly and time-consuming. In this ...
THE INFINITE WARDROBE: FEMALE CONSUMERS' VALUE PERCEPTIONS REGARDING COLLABORATIVE CONSUMPTION OF APPAREL
(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2021)
Understanding the potential factors and underlying mechanisms to engage in collaborative consumption practices has become a significant concern for academics and practitioners. However, collaborative consumption research ...
What should we hope?
(Springer, 2022)
In this paper I propose an interpretation of Kant's notion of the highest good which bears political, ethical, and religious layers simultaneously. I argue that a proper analysis of what Kant allows us to hope for necessarily ...
Perceived Intensities of Normal and Shear Skin Stimuli Using a Wearable Haptic Bracelet
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2022)
Our aim is to provide effective interaction with virtual objects, despite the lack of co-location of virtual and real-world contacts, while taking advantage of relatively large skin area and ease of mounting on the forearm. ...
