For parameterized mixed-binary optimization problems, we construct local decision rules that prescribe near-optimal courses of action across a set of parameter values. The decision rules stem from solving risk-adaptive training problems…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the least squares estimators of the unknown parameters of bifurcating autoregressive processes. Under very weak assumptions on the driven noise of the process, namely conditional pair-wise independence…

Methods of estimation and forecasting for stationary models are well known in classical time series analysis. However, stationarity is an idealization which, in practice, can at best hold as an approximation, but for many time series may be…
