Exchange Rate Policy Coordination among China, Japan, and Korea

2005-09In this paper we argue that the three countries in East Asia should make joint efforts to achieve a long-term goal of currency union. We also argue that in order to achieve this long-term goal, the three countries should conduct exchange rate policy coordination based on the medium-term exchange rate target range of each country. Exchange rate policy within a country is closely related to its inflation targeting, and the government authorities should make sure that these two policies be consistent with each other. In each country it is the ministry of finance that conducts exchange rate policy whereas it is the central bank that strives to attain the inflation target. Therefore, we argue that the ministry of finance and the central bank should coordinate these two policies for the nation before the three countries coordinate their exchange rate policies for the region.departmental bulletin pape

Cross-species transition events of rabies viruses in bats.

<p>The first two principal components of the PCA undertaken using (a) complete Rabies virus nucleoprotein sequences, and (b) an alignment of nucleotides selected by the RFA. The ellipses of different colours represent the bat species in which virus samples were collected. Eight putative cross-species transmission events are highlighted in yellow with the respective predicted bat species of origin shown in (c).</p

Feature Selection Methods for Identifying Genetic Determinants of Host Species in RNA Viruses

<div><p>Despite environmental, social and ecological dependencies, emergence of zoonotic viruses in human populations is clearly also affected by genetic factors which determine cross-species transmission potential. RNA viruses pose an interesting case study given their mutation rates are orders of magnitude higher than any other pathogen – as reflected by the recent emergence of SARS and Influenza for example. Here, we show how feature selection techniques can be used to reliably classify viral sequences by host species, and to identify the crucial minority of host-specific sites in pathogen genomic data. The variability in alleles at those sites can be translated into prediction probabilities that a particular pathogen isolate is adapted to a given host. We illustrate the power of these methods by: 1) identifying the sites explaining SARS coronavirus differences between human, bat and palm civet samples; 2) showing how cross species jumps of rabies virus among bat populations can be readily identified; and 3) <i>de novo</i> identification of likely functional influenza host discriminant markers.</p></div
