The Regression Discontinuity Design (RDD) is one of the emerging methodology for recent policy impact assessment area. But based on the unique nature of RDD, its assumptions for practical application ...

As randomized controlled trials are not always feasible, quasi-experimental methods, such as regression discontinuity design, can expand the scope of clinical investigations aimed at causal inference ...

In a fuzzy regression discontinuity (RD) design, the probability of treatment jumps when a running variable (R) passes a threshold (R0). Fuzzy RD estimates are obtained via a procedure analogous to ...

Abstract: This brief studies the fixed/preassigned-time stability problems for a class of time-varying discontinuous system modeled by ordinary differential equation (ODE). By using a special ...
