At the intersection between Machine Learning and Econometrics: theory and applications

In the present work, we introduce theoretical and application novelties at the intersection between machine learning and econometrics in social and health sciences. In particular, Part 1 delves into optimizing the data collection process in a specific statistical model, commonly used in econometrics, employing an optimization criterion inspired by machine learning, namely, the generalization error conditioned on the training input data. In the first Chapter, we analyze and optimize the trade-...

Shipwrecking Probability in Mediterranean Territorial Waters: A Cultural Approach to Archaeological Predictive Modelling

In dit proefschrift wordt een formele benaderingswijze en GIS-methodologie gepresenteerd waarmee de waarschijnlijkheid vastgesteld kan worden dat schepen schipbreuk lijden in territoriale wateren in de Middellandse zee. Hiermee wordt een lacune gedicht in de ontwikkeling van archeologische verwachtingsmodellen in maritieme context, specifiek voor het Mediterrane gebied. Omdat archeologische verwachtingsmodellen vaak worden bekritiseerd vanwege hun neiging om complexe historische fenomenen te ...

Network analysis of a complex disease: the gut microbiota in the inflammatory bowel disease case

The gut microbiota contains hundreds of types of microbes and dysbiosis can lead to infammatory bowel diseases (IBD), which comprise Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Due to the complex nature of the IBD, it is interest- ing to understand the differences between a control (NI) and an IBD gut microbiome by using new tools offered by net- work science. In particular, when metagenomic data are con- sidered, it is possible to build networks according to the co-variance, the co-occ...

Dynamic homogenization of composite viscoelastic materials

A non-local dynamic homogenization technique for the analysisof a viscoelastic heterogeneous material which displaysa periodic microstructure is herein proposed. The asymptoticexpansion of the micro-displacement field in the transformedLaplace domain allows obtaining, from the expressionof the micro-scale field equations, a set of recursive differentialproblems defined over the periodic unit cell. Consequently,the cell problems are derived in terms of perturbationfunctions depending on the ge...

The Politics of Globalization

Over the past three decades, trade with low-wage countries - in first place China - has grown dramatically. Economic theory has long recognized that trade liberalization, though enlarging the overall economic pie, also produces strong redistributive effects: while it increases aggregate productivity and benefits consumers through lower prices and a wider range of available goods, at the same time it is also associated with substantial adjustment costs in the labour market. As the gains are di...
