Military Rivalries, Alliances and Taxation : The International Origins of Modern Fiscal Contracts

Bellicist theories of comparative development predict increases in taxation as the result of military rivalries. Others claim that this causal relationship is contingent on particular geographical, institutional, and historical conditions. In this paper, we explore the conditional effects of military rivalries on taxation during the 19th and 20th centuries using time-series cross-section models. W

Robust Non-Negative Least Squares Using Sparsity

Sparse, non-negative signals occur in many applications. To recover such signals, estimation posed as non-negative least squares problems have proven to be fruitful. Efficient algorithms with high accuracy have been proposed, but many of them assume either perfect knowledge of the dictionary generating the signal, or attempts to explain deviations from this dictionary by attributing them to compon

Time Recursive Multi-Pitch Estimation Using Group Sparse Recursive Least Squares

In this work, we propose a time-recursive multi-pitch estimation algorithm, using a sparse reconstruction framework, assuming only a few pitches from a large set of candidates to be active at each time instant. The proposed algorithm utilizes a sparse recursive least squares formulation augmented by an adaptive penalty term specifically designed to enforce a pitch structure on the solution. When e

Biorefineries in Sweden: Perspectives on the opportunities, challenges and future: Biorefineries in Sweden

A growing political interest in the development of biorefineries is being shaped by climate change and a need to develop economically viable substitutes (i.e., fuels, products and chemicals) to those produced in traditional oil refineries. The pulp and paper industry in Sweden has been stagnating and it is therefore potentially promising to integrate biorefining into its activities as one way of d

Teachers 'voice use in teaching environment. Aspects on speakers' comfort

Teachers have high occupational voice demands. The voice load of teachers is both environmental and individual. Little is known about the teachers' own view of the contribution from the environment and about the teachers' voice use at their work-place. Aim: The purpose was to investigate the voice use and prevalence of voice problems in teachers and to explore their ratings of vocally loading aspe
