TL;DR: A clustering-based approach to mitigate the ‘rule immensity’ and the resulting ‘understandability’ problem in association rule (AR) mining is presented and the notion of ‘tightness’ of an AR is introduced.
Abstract: In this paper we present a clustering-based approach to mitigate the ‘rule immensity’ and the resulting ‘understandability’ problem in association rule (AR) mining. Clustering ‘similar’ rules facilitates exploration of connections among rules and the discovery of underlying structures. We first introduce the notion of ‘tightness’ of an AR. It reveals the strength of binding between various items present in an AR. We elaborate on its usefulness in the retail market-basket context and develop a distance-function on the basis of ‘tightness.’ Usage of this distance function is exemplified by clustering a small artificial set of ARs with the help of average-linkage method. Clusters thus obtained are compared with those obtained by running a standard method (from recent data mining literature) on the same data set.

TL;DR: This article used the 2010 Transparency and Disclosure norms in India as a discontinuity in the institutional regime within which credit rating agencies operated, and used a difference-in-difference estimator to study how the market reacts to rating changes when regulatory norms require a higher level of transparency using data on the market and bank-based instruments from India.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provided the first causal evidence that higher import competition increases the share of the formal sector employment in the Indian manufacturing sector and exploited plausibly exogenous variation from Chinese imports.
Abstract: The debate on the effects of import competition on sectoral composition of employment remains unsettled. Using the case of the Indian manufacturing sector and exploiting plausibly exogenous variation from Chinese imports, we provide the first causal evidence that higher import competition increases the share of the formal sector employment. We nd an increase in the level of formal sector employment, driven by firms in the top 50% of the productivity distribution, and in contrast, a fall in the informal sector employment. This labor reallocation from informal to formal enterprises is enabled by the usage of contract workers, who do not carry stringent ring costs and are usually not covered by trade unions. Our estimates imply that Chinese import competition led to an increase in the share of formal sector employment by 3.9 percentage points between 2000-2001 and 2005-2006, which suggests an increase in aggregate labor productivity by 3.28%. Our results are robust to an instrumental variables estimation, and controlling for a host of other potential trade channels and worker characteristics.

TL;DR: Ojha as discussed by the authors examined the impact of accreditations of prominent management institutes in India, including the Indian Institutes of Management, by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) on management education in India.
Abstract: About 10 years ago, I reflected on the challenges of management education in India and argued that there was a need to protect it from the damaging effects of rankings by media (Ojha in Decision 32(2):19–33, 2005). A request to revisit and update the paper provided me a chance to examine the developments in the last decade to assess how things had evolved, and also an opportunity to anticipate some of the problems that the field might have to face in the future. I have chosen to examine the impact of accreditations of prominent management institutes in India, including the Indian Institutes of Management, by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) on management education in India. Continuing the spirit of my earlier reflections, I caution the leadership teams in management institutes to guard against losing control over the agenda and relevance of management education for India as they pursue global aspirations. Drawing on Baudrillard (Simulacra and simulation. University of Michigan Press, Ann Arbor, 1994), I argue that unless management educators are alert to the long-term implications of externally driven accreditations there is a real danger that management education in India may be reduced to “Simulacra” that has no relevance to the issues and problems of our society, even as attempts to mimic management education in the USA may lead to an elusive mirage. Finally, as I did a decade ago, I appeal to the prominent management institutes, including the IIMs, to work together to develop and protect management education that is relevant to India.

TL;DR: In this article, the twin challenges of quality and accessibility of primary education in rural India have been addressed, and the authors have shown that there is a need to meet these twin challenges with m...
Abstract: With the bulk of India’s population residing in rural areas, access to quality primary education in non-urban areas is vital to unlock the country’s vast economic potential. Good primary education is likely to provide a solid foundation to the rural poor for acquiring higher education, professional skills and employment, thereby reducing poverty for them and enabling sustained economic growth for the country. Government schools, which comprise the majority of schools in rural India, have been unable to address the challenge due to inferior facilities, ineffective teaching and mismanagement. As a result, rural parents, who can afford to do so, are increasingly enrolling their children in private schools that have been opportunistically set up in relatively affluent rural areas. While such schools demonstrate better results than government schools, they are far from adequate in terms of quality and accessibility. We believe that there is a need to meet the twin challenges of quality and accessibility with m...
