Facing Facts: Best Practices for Common Uses of Facial Recognition Technologies
ISBN: 9781507526309 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 30 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the 2002 film Minority Report, Steven Spielberg imagined a world in which companies use biometric technology to identify us and serve us targeted ads. Ten years later, that vision is coming closer to reality. Having overcome the high costs and poor accuracy that once stunted its growth, one form of biometric technology - facial recognition - is quickly moving out of the realm of science fiction and into the commercial marketplace. Today, companies are deploying facial recognition technologies in a wide array of contexts, reflecting a spectrum of increasing technological sophistication. At...

Identity theft happens when someone steals your personal information and uses it without your permission.

Resource Allocation Contests: Experimental Evidence
ISBN: 9781502738950 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 32 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Across many forms of rent seeking contests, the impact of risk aversion on equilibrium play is indeterminate. We design an experiment to compare individuals' decisions across three contests which are isomorphic under risk-neutrality, but are typically not isomorphic under other risk preferences. The pattern of individual play across our contests is not consistent with a Bayes-Nash equilibrium for any distribution of risk preferences. We show that replacing the Bayes-Nash equilibrium concept with the quintal response equilibrium, along with heterogeneous risk preferences can produce...

Mobile Apps for Kids: Disclosures Still Not Making the Grade
ISBN: 9781507525647 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 42 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In February 2012, Federal Trade Commission (FTC) staff issued a report on a survey of mobile "apps" offered for children in Apple's App Store and Google's Android Market, the two largest U.S. app stores. The report, Mobile Apps for Kids: Current Privacy Disclosures are Disappointing, found that little or no information was available to parents about the privacy practices and interactive features of the mobile apps surveyed prior to download. As a result, the report called on all members of the kids' app ecosystem - app stores, developers, and third parties that interact with the apps - to...

In the online marketplace, consumers can transact business without the constraints of time or distance. One can log on to the Internet day or night and purchase almost anything one desires, and advances in mobile technology allow advertisers to reach consumers nearly anywhere they go.

Estimating Promotional Effects with Retailer-Level Scanner Data
ISBN: 9781502735249 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Estimating cross-brand promotional effects with aggregate data requires knowledge of the joint distribution of each brand's promotions. While such information is available in store-level scanner data, it is not included in more aggregated scanner datasets. This book presents a technique for overcoming this difficulty and develops a retailer-level model that incorporates both own- and cross-brand promotions. Promotional activity is integrated into the specification in a manner consistent with the way store-level models control for promotions, thereby avoiding the problem of aggregation bias....

Have Lazear-Style Implicit Contracts Disappeared?
ISBN: 9781502739346 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 38 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A well-known theory (Lazear, 1979) argues that wage patterns in which younger workers are underpaid relative to marginal revenue product and older workers are overpaid relative to marginal revenue product can be understood as an implicit contract designed to combat principal-agent problems in environments where worker monitoring is costly. In this paper I argue that a number of recent developments (most notably the legal ban on mandatory retirement) have caused the formation of these implicit contracts between firms and young workers to decline (or cease). I derive testable implications of...

Mobile Cramming
ISBN: 9781507525524 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 42 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The widespread adoption of mobile devices has provided many important benefits to consumers, including the convenience of paying for goods and services using a phone. One mobile payment option is known as "carrier billing" - the ability to charge a good or service directly to a mobile phone account. Industry observers have noted the potential usefulness of carrier billing to consumers, and the industry continues to devote resources to promoting carrier billing as a payment option. As stakeholders have noted, carrier billing of third-party charges may be particularly beneficial for unbanked...
