Evaluating geospatial accuracy for equity analyses: a case study of the U.S. National Bridge Inventory by Gandy, CA, Kang, X, Ritsch, N, Armanios, DE

“…Phase 3 assesses the feasibility of enhancing location granularity through a hand-checked case study. We find that for coarser geospatial levels (state and county), equity-based analyses may be possible, but for more granular geospatial levels (place and census tract), which is where equity-based analyses are often conducted, the data may need greater buffering and hand checks to ensure accuracy. …”

Predicting bank failures : a comparison of the Cox proportional hazards model and time-varying covariates model. by Cheng, Philip Yim Kwong.

“…As a contribution to bank regulation by improving the accuracy of predicting failed banks, I first illustrate the use of martingale and other residuals as diagnostic checks for Cox’s proportional hazards model. Second, I discuss and substantiate the claim that a time-varying covariates model is superior to the Cox model as a bank failure model.…”
