Sommario/riassunto |
|
A strand of research documents Chile’s copper dependence hence significant exposure to terms of trade shocks. Copper prices’ sharp decline and forecast uncertainty since the end of the commodity super-cycle has rekindled the debate on Chile’s adjustment capacity to external shocks. Following Malz (2014), this paper builds a time-varying measure of copper price uncertainty using options contracts. VAR analysis shows that the investment response to an uncertainty shock of average magnitude in the sample is strong and persistent: the cumulative fall in investment from trend at a one-year horizon ranges 2–5.8 percentage points; and it takes between 1½ and 2 years for investment to return to its trend level. Empirical ranges depend on alternative definitions for investment, uncertainty, and options’ maturing time. |

Sommario/riassunto |

The AMDO 2010 conference took place at the Hotel Mon Port, Port d'Andratx (Mallorca),during July 7-9,2010,institutionally sponsoredby MICINN (Min- teriodeCienciaeInnovaci´ on,SpanishGovernment),theConselleriad'Economia, Hisenda i Innovaci´ o (Balearic Islands Government), the Consell de Mallorca, the AERFAI (Spanish Association in Pattern Recognition and Arti'cial Intel- gence), the EG (Eurographics Association) and the Mathematics and Computer Science Department of the UIB. In addition important commercial sponsors collaborated with practical demonstrations, and the main contributors were: VICOM Tech, ANDROME Iberica, Robot S.A, DAT S.L, Aquateknica S.L. The subject of the conference is the ongoing research in articulated motion on a sequence of images and sophisticated models for deformable objects. The goals of these areas are the understanding and interpretation of the motion of complex objects that can be found in sequences of images in the real world. The main topics considered as priority are: geometric and physical deformable models, motion analysis, articulated models and animation, modelling and - sualization of deformable models, deformable model applications, motion an- ysis applications, single or multiple human motion analysis and synthesis, face modelling, tracking, recovering and recognition models, virtual and augmented reality, haptics devices, and biometrics techniques. The conference topics were groupedinto these tracks: Track 1: Computer Graphics (Human Modelling and Animation), Track 2: Human Motion (Analysis, Tracking, 3D Reconstruction and Recognition), Track 3: Multimodal User Interaction (VR and AR, Speech, Biometrics) and Track 4: A'ective Interfaces (recognition and interpretation of emotions, ECAs - Embodied Conversational Agents in HCI). |
