Welcome to OpenBU
The Boston University Institutional Repository contains documents and publications authored or co-authored by BU faculty, students, and staff.
OpenBU is an open access repository, which means that the full text of the work deposited here is freely accessible to the world via the web. Access is restricted only in unavoidable instances, for example where publisher copyright restrictions prevail. However over 90% of scholarly publishers worldwide now allow some version of the documents they publish to be made available in a repository such as this.

Macro-financial volatility under dispersed information
(2021-01)We provide a production-based asset pricing model with dispersed information and small deviations from full rational expectations. In the model, aggregate output and equity prices depend on the higher-order beliefs about ... -
On-off random access channels: a compressed sensing framework
(2009)This paper considers a simple on-off random multiple access channel, where n users communicate simultaneously to a single receiver over m degrees of freedom. Each user transmits with probability 𝛌, where typically 𝛌n < ... -
Time-resolved focused ion beam microscopy: modeling, estimation methods, and analyses
(2021)In a focused ion beam (FIB) microscope, source particles interact with a small volume of a sample to generate secondary electrons that are detected, pixel by pixel, to produce a micrograph. Randomness of the number of ... -
Differential effects of anesthetics on resting state functional connectivity in the mouse
(2020-04)Blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) functional MRI (fMRI) is a standard approach to examine resting state functional connectivity (RSFC), but fMRI in animal models is challenging. Recently, functional optical intrinsic ... -
Nonlinear digital post-processing to mitigate jitter in sampling
(2018)This paper describes several new algorithms for estimating the parameters of a periodic bandlimited signal from samples corrupted by jitter (timing noise) and additive noise. Both classical (non-random) and Bayesian ... -
SWAGGER: sparsity within and across groups for general estimation and recovery
(2020)Penalty functions or regularization terms that promote structured solutions to optimization problems are of great interest in many fields. Proposed in this work is a nonconvex structured sparsity penalty that promotes ... -
