Independent directors: less informed, but better selected? New evidence from a two-way director-firm fixed effect model

We have analysed the properties of the influence function which is monotonically increasing and submodular and we propose a greedy approximation algorithm for efficiently computing

Proposition 3 Any problem that is polynomial on graphs of maximum degree 2 and matches vertex branching can be solved on graphs of average degree d with running time O ∗ (2 dn/6

At the specification level, the effect of a transformation can be characterised by a collection of mapping specifications, which relate model elements of one or more models involved in

Firstly, we find that the presence of minority directors on bank boards has a positive and significant impact on market valuation, with evidence that this increase in market

For the neutral Dark Matter, the production of cosmic rays moderately constrains the possibility to emit a strong gamma-ray line, while for a millicharged Dark Matter candidate,

Our alm here was to compare neural networks, and more precisely Time Delay Neural Networks (TDNN) to classlcal methods on a wldely studled and well mastered task for

Treatises and textbooks on applied statis- tics report a number of test procedures using some form of normal-based approximation, such as a Chi-squared test, various sorts of z

Second, estimating director fixed effects helps to identify the selection process taking place in independent directors’ appointment, as it allows a direct test
