The Waxman random graph is a generalisation of the simple Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi or Gilbert random graph. It is useful for modelling physical networks where the increased cost of longer links means they are less likely to be built, and thus less…

We consider a linear model where the coefficients - intercept and slopes - are random with a law in a nonparametric class and independent from the regressors. Identification often requires the regressors to have a support which is the whole…
