TL;DR: The authors provides a survey of the work that has been done in financial econometrics in the past decade, establishing a set of stylized facts that are characteristics of financial series and then detailing the range of techniques that have been developed to model series which possess these characteristics.

TL;DR: This paper presents the first globally optimal algorithm, named Go-ICP, for Euclidean (rigid) registration of two 3D point-sets under the inline-formula notation, and derives novel upper and lower bounds for the registration error function.
Abstract: The Iterative Closest Point (ICP) algorithm is one of the most widely used methods for point-set registration. However, being based on local iterative optimization, ICP is known to be susceptible to local minima. Its performance critically relies on the quality of the initialization and only local optimality is guaranteed. This paper presents the first globally optimal algorithm, named Go-ICP, for Euclidean (rigid) registration of two 3D point-sets under the $L_2$ error metric defined in ICP. The Go-ICP method is based on a branch-and-bound scheme that searches the entire 3D motion space $SE(3)$ . By exploiting the special structure of $SE(3)$ geometry, we derive novel upper and lower bounds for the registration error function. Local ICP is integrated into the BnB scheme, which speeds up the new method while guaranteeing global optimality. We also discuss extensions, addressing the issue of outlier robustness. The evaluation demonstrates that the proposed method is able to produce reliable registration results regardless of the initialization. Go-ICP can be applied in scenarios where an optimal solution is desirable or where a good initialization is not always available.

TL;DR: Evidence shows that some social policies can be effective in countering postponement and a growing body of literature shows that female employment and childrearing can be combined when the reduction in work-family conflict is facilitated by policy intervention.
Abstract: BACKGROUND
Never before have parents in most Western societies had their first children as late as in recent decades. What are the central reasons for postponement? What is known about the link between the delay of childbearing and social policy incentives to counter these trends? This review engages in a systematic analysis of existing evidence to extract the maximum amount of knowledge about the reasons for birth postponement and the effectiveness of social policy incentives.
