A social accounting matrix approach to appraise sectors with a zero deficit public budget

El objetivo de este trabajo es el desarrollo de una metodología empírica mixta para identificar, en un marco de déficit público cero, los sectores que tienen la capacidad de crecimiento de la producción y el empleo, teniendo también en cuenta las implicaciones ambientales de la producción de cada sector. Las actividades económicas se clasifican y seleccionan en función de sus multiplicadores de producción, empleo, y emisiones. Para un análisis empírico, se utiliza una Matriz de Contabilidad Social de la economía española para 2008. Entre los resultados, destaca el hecho de que la consideración del déficit cero en el presupuesto público altera significativamente la importancia de los sectores de desarrollo económico, resultando clave la elección de un criterio para determinar la asignación de los fondos públicos.The aim of this paper is to develop a mixed empirical methodology to identify, in a zero public deficit framework, those sectors with the capability for growth of output and employment, while also considering the environmental implications of the production of each sector. Their economic activities are ranked and selected in terms of their output, employment, and emissions multipliers. For an empirical analysis, a Social Accounting Matrix of the Spanish economy for 2008 is used. Among the findings, highlights the fact that consideration of the zero deficit in the public budget significantly alters the importance of the sectors for economic development, turning out key choosing a criterion for determining the allocation of public funds

Intra-Household Time Allocation: Gender Differences in Caring for Children

This paper analyses the intra-household allocation of time to show gender differences in childcare. In the framework of a general efficiency approach, hours spent on childcare by each parent are regressed against individual and household characteristics, for five samples (Denmark, France, Germany, Italy and Spain), with data being drawn from the European Community Household Panel-ECHP (1994-2001). Empirical results show a clear inequality in childcare between fathers and mothers, with this being more evident in Mediterranean countries. Panel data estimates reveal that, in general, caring tasks are mainly influenced by the presence of young children in the household, by the total non-labor income, and by the ratio of mothers' non-labor income to family's non-labor income, with this latter variable exhibiting a different behavior across genders and across countries.childcare, gender differences, intra-household allocation, time use

Returns to education and to experience within the EU: are there differences between wage earners and the self-employed?

This paper investigates the returns to education and to experience within the 15 pre-enlargement EU countries, distinguishing between wage earners and the self-employed. These returns are estimated by using a comparable data set coming from the European Community Household Panel during the period 1994-2000. To correct for the ability bias and recover the education coefficients, an Efficient Generalized Instrumental Variable technique is applied. Although the results differ across countries, two common features can be observed. First, the earnings-experience profiles indicate certain traits of competitiveness in the labor markets and, secondly, the returns to education show that signaling plays a relevant role in the earnings of workers.Returns to education, wage earners, self-employed, panel data, European Union

Spiking neural networks trained with backpropagation for low power neuromorphic implementation of voice activity detection

Recent advances in Voice Activity Detection (VAD) are driven by artificial and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), however, using a VAD system in battery-operated devices requires further power efficiency. This can be achieved by neuromorphic hardware, which enables Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) to perform inference at very low energy consumption. Spiking networks are characterized by their ability to process information efficiently, in a sparse cascade of binary events in time called spikes. However, a big performance gap separates artificial from spiking networks, mostly due to a lack of powerful SNN training algorithms. To overcome this problem we exploit an SNN model that can be recast into an RNN-like model and trained with known deep learning techniques. We describe an SNN training procedure that achieves low spiking activity and pruning algorithms to remove 85% of the network connections with no performance loss. The model achieves state-of-the-art performance with a fraction of power consumption comparing to other methods.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures, 2 table

Un análisis del perfil del cuidador y su impacto sobre la situación laboral: cuidadores principales de enfermos de Alzheimer y otras demencias en el Sur Oeste de España

The aim of this paper is to analyse the main demographic and socio-economic conditions of the primary caregivers of Alzheimer's and dementia sufferers, and their relationship to the employment situation of the caregiver. Material and Methods: Empirical analysis of the data obtained from surveys of 694 primary caregivers of Alzheimer's and dementia sufferers through the Andalusian Associations of Relatives of Alzheimer’s Patients. The sampling procedure was selective non-probabilistic sampling. The SPSS 19 statistical software package was used to process the data. The verification of the hypothesis of independence of variables was performed using the chi square test under the usual parameters. Results: The employment rate of working-age caregivers is much lower than that of the general population, especially in older women with low levels of education who live with the patient. The data revealed that caregiving which takes place in the home represents the main restriction preventing access to the labour market, i.e. living with the patient is an additional handicap, and an even greater one for women. Conclusions: Those who care for dementia patients have greater limitations in accessing the labour market than the rest of the population, and this limitation is significantly greater when care is provided in the home. As such, health and social policy, with a view towards encouraging employment, needs to take into account the option of boosting available resources outside of family care.El objetivo es analizar las principales características demográficas y socio-económicas de los cuidadores principales de enfermos de Alzheimer y otras demencias, y buscar una la relación entre dichas características y su vinculación con el mercado laboral. Material y Métodos: Análisis empírico de los datos obtenidos de 694 encuestas realizadas a cuidadores principales de enfermos de Alzheimer y otras demencias, a través de Asociaciones de familiares de enfermos de Alzheimer andaluzas. El procedimiento de muestreo fue el muestreo no probabilístico selectivo. Para el tratamiento de los datos se ha utilizado el paquete estadístico SPSS 19. El contraste de las hipótesis de independencia de variables se ha realizado con el test de la chi cuadrado bajo los parámetros habituales. Resultados: La tasa de ocupación de los cuidadores en edad laboral es muy inferior a la de la población general, especialmenteen mujeres, de mayor edad, nivel de formación bajo y que conviven con el enfermo. De los datos analizados se revela como principal restricción para el acceso al mercado laboral el modelo de cuidado en casa, es decir, la convivencia con el enfermo es un hándicap adicional, mayor para el colectivo femenino. Conclusiones: Cuidar de un enfermo es una limitación superior respecto a población no cuidadora para el acceso al mercado laboral, y esta limitación es significativamente superior cuando el enfermo se atiende en el domicilio, por lo que de cara a políticas socio-sanitarias con incidencia en el fomento del empleo es necesario considerar la opción de incrementar recursos externos al cuidado familiar

Behaviour of the anomalous regions of the Continuos Shouldered Well isotropic soft-core potential

Projecte de final de màster realitzat en col.laboració amb el Departament de Física Fonamental, Facultat de Física.Using molecular dynamics we simulate a system of particles interacting through a continuous isotropic pairwise coresoftened potential, proposed by Giancarlo Franzese, consisting on a repulsive shoulder and an attractive well. The model is known to display a phase diagram with three fuid phases with a gas-liquid critical point and liquid-liquid critical point and to present density, diffusion and structural anomalies, in the same hierarchy that characterizes water. In this work we increase systematically the slope of the repulsive shouder to study the effect on the anomalies. We find that the different anomalous regions are sensible to the changes and get narrow as the slope increases. While diffusion and density anomalous regions tend to colapse into one single point in the T − ρ plane, structural anomalous region tends asimptotically to a fixed value

Severe Atopic Dermatitis In Spain: A Real-Life Observational Study

Objective: To determine the epidemiology and characterize the treatment prescribed for severe atopic dermatitis (AD) in children/adults in usual clinical practice. Methods: Observational, retrospective study made through review of medical records of Spanish patients aged >= 6 years. Patients diagnosed with severe AD who required care between 2013 and 2017 were included. The study groups were: 6-12 years; 13-18 years; and > 18 years. Patients were followed for 5 years. The main measurements were the prevalence of AD, comorbidity and treatment duration. Statistical significance was established as p <0.05. Results: We included 2323 patients with severe AD. The overall prevalence was 0.10% (95% CI: 0.09-0.11%) and was 0.39%, 0.23% and 0.07% in the 6-12 years, 13-18 years and >18 years age groups, respectively (p <0.001), the percentage of males was 58%, 48.6% and 39%, respectively, and general comorbidity was 0.1, 0.2 and 0.9 points, respectively (p <0.001).The most frequent comorbidities were asthma in 49.0%, 44.9% and 20.8%, respectively (p <0.001), and anxiety in 79.7%, 65.8% and 67.3%, respectively (p <0.001). Oral corticosteroids were administered in 97.3%, 90.9% and 81.7%, respectively (concomitant-medication). Cyclosporine (45.3%), azathioprine (15.9%) and methotrexate (9.0%) were the most frequently prescribed drugs; biologic agents were administered in 5.8% of patients (for AD). Conclusion: In AD the presence of comorbidities was significant, especially in the psychological, immunoallergic and cardiovascular areas. Cyclosporine was the most widely used immunosuppressant. There was a degree of variability in the use and duration of the treatments prescribed
