Estimation of Disproportions in Patent Activity of OECD Countries Using Spatio-Temporal Methods
Journal Title: Dynamic Econometric Models - Year 2009, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
The article contains a presentation of possibility of using panel-based sample and modelling based on this sample as methods of determining indicators of patent activity. The research was conducted with the help of data from European countries. Results in association with used methodology, which takes into account modern approach to stationary and cointegration for panel-based samples, indicate the usefulness of applied methods.

Jumps Activity and Singularity Spectra for Instruments in the Polish Financial Market
In the paper we try to measure the activity of jumps in returns of some instruments from the Polish financial market. We use Blumenthal-Getoor index β for Lévy processes as a measure of jumps’ activity. This allows...
