Three essays in demography: method, gendered generational change, assortative mating, and fertility.

The first essay studies response pattern from factorial survey experiment and its relationship with traditional survey question and respondent’s perceived SES. Across 8 survey countries, I find that participants who tend to see vignettes as successful (i.e., whose mean vignette ratings in the 75% quantile with mean rating ...

Essays on Information Manipulation

The first chapter investigates how an autocratic (dictatorial) regime uses propaganda to stay in power by suppressing a mass protest by citizens or a coup d'état by the élite through the models of information manipulation. Agents (citizens or the élite members) participate in a collective action of an uprising against the status quo basing their decision on the belief about the strength of the Dictator which can be manipulated by the latter. I differentiate the agents depending on how they up...

Artificial intelligence as a tool for research and development in European patent law

Artificial intelligence (“AI”) is increasingly fundamental for research and development (“R&D”). Thanks to its powerful analytical and generative capabilities, AI is arguably changing how we invent. According to several scholars, this finding calls into question the core principles of European patent law—the field of law devoted to protecting inventions. In particular, the AI revolution might have an impact on the notions of “invention”, “inventor”, “inventive step”, and “skilled person”. The...

Risk prediction and family history effect in survival models for disease onset, with a specific focus on breast cancer.

We are interested in a specific aspect related to modelling disease onset, i.e. the study of family-specific risk. Generally, quantifying the family-specific risk of developing a disease is crucial to improve the patient’s survival, and healthcare data provide an essential tool to estimate such quantity. Specifically for breast cancer, early detection is particularly important to increase the chances of a successful treatment. In this setting, risk estimation allows for the identification of ...

The Global Reach of EU Law Through the Regulation of Third-country CRAs and CCPs in the EU

Financial markets operate on a global scale, characterized by complex interactions and rapid changes. In the European Union (EU), cross-border financial services have introduced complexity, particularly with the participation of third-country providers. In this regard, the EU has endeavored to establish a regulatory framework that both bolsters its single financial market and aligns with international standards post-financial crises. This research explores the post-crisis regulatory framework...
