1. Assessment of Covariance Selection Methods in High-Dimensional Gaussian Graphical Models
ABSTRACT The covariance selection in Gaussian graphical models consists in selecting, based on a sample of a multivariate normal vector, all those pairs of variables that are conditionally dependent given the remaining variables. This problem is equivalent to estimate the graph identifying the nonzero elements on the off-diagonal entries of the precision mat

2. Testing the consumption-based CAPM using the stochastic discount factor
Abstract This article investigates the problem of optimal intertemporal consumption in the CCAPM setup from a new empirical perspective. The econometric analysis is based on use of the equality between the stochastic discount factor (SDF) and the marginal rate of intertemporal substitution of consumption, which in the CCAPM is equivalent to the Euler equatio

3. Unplanned dilution back analysis in an underground mine using numerical models
Abstract In underground mines, stability problems can cause unplanned dilution, increasing the costs of mining operations, such as loading, transport, crushing and grinding. This is usually dealt with by simply increasing investments with support. However, the design geometry of stopes and drifts also has a great effect on a stope’s stability. The use of e

4. Challenges of business models for sustainability in startups
Abstract Purpose This study aims to analyze the challenges startups face in implementing business models for sustainability. In particular, the research question of this study is: How do the challenges faced by startups affect business models for sustainability in the context of an emerging country? Design/methodology/approach Startups are increasingly inc

5. Mobilizing a pluralist theoretical approach to understand microlending digital platforms: the AfricaMC case
Abstract Purpose This study aims to explore how a microlending digital platform connects social investors in developed countries and micro-entrepreneurs in Africa. However, additional research is necessary to discuss how online auction models are designed and implemented and how existing theories can explain their use in the so-called developing countries.

6. REHYDRATION KINETICS OF DEHYDRATED BERRIES
ABSTRACT Cranberries and blueberries are small fruits known for their antioxidant properties. However, due to their high water content and short shelf life, they are generally marketed as dehydrated berries. The present work aimed to model the rehydration of dehydrated berries. Rehydration tests were conducted at 7 and 29°C using milk as a solvent and at 7,

7. Flexible pavement overlay design of UFJF ring road based on the new Brazilian mechanistic-empirical pavement design method
Abstract The procedures for design and reinforcement projects regarding flexible pavements available in Brazil are mostly based on empirical models developed from studies carried out in specific localities, and therefore, should only be used in cases where equivalent climatic and traffic conditions are observed. The national highway agencies in partnership w

8. LA PARATRADUCTION DE L’IDENTITÉ DANS LES ESPACES DE TRADUCTION ET D’INTERPRÉTATION EN MILIEU SOCIAL (TIMS)
ABSTRACT When we address the issue of identity in TIMS spaces, we face an essential question. Indeed, the relationship with the other is evident in Health practices. What about these relationships, when the cultural diversity of our current societies redraws the patterns of identity established in previous models? In this paper we will deal with the question

9. PERCEPTION, ATTENTION AND DEMONSTRATIVE THOUGHT: IN DEFENSE OF A HYBRID METASEMANTIC MECHANISM
Abstract Demonstrative thoughts are distinguished by the fact that their contents are determined relationally, via perception, rather than descriptively. Therefore, a fundamental task of a theory of demonstrative thought is to elucidate how facts about visual perception can explain how these thoughts come to have the contents that they do. The purpose of thi

10. Efficiency of electricity distribution companies
Abstract Purpose After assessing papers on efficiency, most of the studies available are focused on the analysis of efficiency measures, without providing a deep discussion of the factors that determine efficiency. This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of Brazilian electricity distribution companies based on a structural model that enables the identifi

11. Correlations of rock mass classifications applied to ferruginous caves
Abstract For the Brazilian iron ore mines, the presence of caves presents a challenge, since most of them are located within the ore deposit. The National Environment Commission (CONAMA 347 Resolution/2004) establishes that the speleological heritage, as well as its area of influence, cannot sustain irreversible environmental impacts. The physical integrity
