Spatio-temporal Hawkes processes are a natural way of modelling point process data. They are used in a range of contexts for their ability to separate ”background” arrivals from secondary spread events, yet standard inference algorithms work from a complete event history. Motivated by a study looking at photographic records of an invasive rose-bush population with irregular time intervals between

The regulation encompasses the proportionality principle of environmental consideration. Its purpose is to avoid that costly countermeasures are imposed that have limited or no negative impact on the environment. The proportionality principle in the environmental code
This thesis empirically investigates the question if US firm’s capital structures are stable over longer periods of time and which firm characteristics drive optimal leverage.
