Same data, different analysts: variation in effect sizes due to analytical decisions in ecology and evolutionary biology by Gould, E, Fraser, HS, Parker, TH, Nakagawa, S, Griffith, SC, Vesk, PA, Fidler, F, Hamilton, DG, Abbey-Lee, RN, Abbott, JK, Aguirre, LA, Alcaraz, C, Aloni, I, Altschul, D, Arekar, K, Atkins, JW, Atkinson, J, Baker, CM, Barrett, M, Bell, K, Bello, SK, Beltrán, I, Berauer, BJ, Bertram, MG, Wood, A

“…For both datasets, we found substantial variation in the variable selection and random effects structures among analyses, as well as in the ratings of the analytical methods by peer reviewers, but we found no strong relationship between any of these and deviation from the meta-analytic mean. In other words, analyses with results that were far from the mean were no more or less likely to have dissimilar variable sets, use random effects in their models, or receive poor peer reviews than those analyses that found results that were close to the mean. …”

Option pricing under stochastic volatility model. by Lim, Hak Min., Lim, Gerald Kim Meng., Yeo, Yew Teck.

“…In this paper, we examine the stochastic volatility model of Schobel and Zhu (1999) where volatility follows a mean-reverting Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. This is basically an extension of the Stein and Stein model (1991) but which allows for correlation between instantaneous volatilities and spot returns.…”

Comparison of multiple random walks strategies for searching networks by Zheng, Zhongtuan, Wang, Hanxing, Gao, Shengguo, Wang, Guoqiang

“…We analyze the first passage time (FPT) of wandering walkers of MRW and give the corresponding formulas of probability distributions and moments, and the mean first passage time (MFPT) is included. We show the convergence of the MFPT of the first arriving walker and find the MFPT of the last arriving walker closely related with the mean cover time. …”

Spatial and temporal variability of pore-water pressures in residual soil slopes in a tropical climate by Rahardjo, Harianto, Leong, Eng Choon, Rezaur, R. B.

“…Parameters of the semivariograms, namely the range, sill and nugget effect, revealed interesting insights into the spatial structure of the temporal situation of pore-water pressures in the slopes. While informative, mean estimates have been shown to be inadequate for modelling purposes, indicator semivariograms together with mean prediction by kriging provide a better form of model input. …”
