In today's information age, there is an urgent need to develop stochastic models and statistical inference tools for the analysis of abundant and complex data. This special issue will feature new developments in functional data analysis and innovative contributions to related elds, including complex data, highdimensional statistics, machine learning, and statistical inference for "Big Data."
This special issue is intended to carry some of the best papers presented at the International Workshop on Functional and Operatorial Statistics (IWFOS 2017) to be held in A Coruña, Spain, June 15-17, 2017 (http://iwfos2017.udc.es/). However, other innovative contributions to the eld are welcome. All papers will be refereed and subject to the same high-quality standards as regular submissions to JMVA.

Spin thermoelectrics, an emergent field in condensed matter physics and material science, develops fascinating physical knowledge about the interaction between electron spin and heat flow. Versatile properties of the advanced materials have application potentials to novel devices with reused heat energy and low dissipation. Despite the existing challenges and debates, there are many opportunities to the understanding of the transport and conversion of heat, charge and spin in materials and design of the advanced devices. This special issue will focus on the recent progress on the main topics in this attractive field with novel physical insights and open discussions.
Topics of Interests
- Theory of non-adiabatic (dissipative) spin-orbit torques
- Heat current as a response to magnetization dynamics
- Magnetization dynamics as a response to heat
- Spin-dependent thermopower
- Anomalous Nernst effect
- Magneto-thermopower in tunnel junctions
- Thermoelectrics in perpendicular-anisotropy materials
- Thermoelectrics in skyrmionic materials
- Thermally-induced inverse spin Hall effect

In the year 2017 when The International Conference on Financial Systems Engineering and Risk Management has been held for 15 years, Chinese economy is developing in the new normality and the world economy is full of uncertainty. At this time, how does financial innovation serve economic restructuring? How to deal with the new challenges of reform? How can financial systemic risk be hedged? All of these problems are testing our wisdom.In order to solve above problems, the 15th International Conference on Financial Systems Engineering and Risk Management (FSERM'2017) will be held at Beihang University (XueYuan Road Campus) during October 14-15, 2017.
FSERM'2017 will provide an open platform that brings scholars, industry experts and regulators together to present current research and stimulate new development in financial systemsengineering and risk management. The theme of this conference is "Systematic Thinking in Financial Innovation". FSERM'2017 invites papers from all areas of financial systems engineering and risk management.
Topics suitable for the Special issue include, but are not limited to, the following: - Empirical studies on the relations between uncertainty and expected securities returns - Time-varying risk premium - Asset pricing implications of parameter or model uncertainty - Explanations of asset pricing anomalies and their application in the asset management - Equilibrium asset pricing under uncertainty - Systemic risk and risk contagion - Macroeconomics and Finance - Financial Crisis and Financial Contagions - Asset Pricing - Financial Risk Management - Behavioral Finance - Computational and Experiment Finance - Financial Stability and Supervision - Corporate Finance - Corporate Governance - Big data
Public choice research has significantly increased our understanding of the incentives of public actors (e.g., heads of state, judges, and police) in non-market environments (e.g., political, legal) within which economic activities take place. However, much of the public choice literature is still based on theoretical assumptions about individual behavior or on field data from surveys that are not specifically tailored to answer the questions raised by theory. Over the last decades, there has been a call from within economics to use experiments to examine preferences of actors that involve both wealth and non-wealth maximizing behavior. Together with theory and field data, experiments allow us to understand traditional public choice phenomena (bargaining, bureaucracies, communication, elections, information, legislatures) as well as more behavioral topics in collective decision-making (culture, emotions, institutions, norms) in more depth.

Special Issue: Finance and Long-Term Growth: Economic Modelling and Evidence
The recent global financial crisis has radically changed the way in which growth theorists, applied economists and policy-makers usually think about the ultimate sources of long-term economic growth, and the implications that economic growth may in turn have on per-capita living standards, income distribution, resource-allocation efficiency, and public intervention.
Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization(JEBO) will publish a special issue which aims to gather frontier related research in this area. Relevant topics include:
- Finance, R&D, Innovation, Technology Diffusion, and Growth;
- Finance, Institutions, and Growth;
- Growth beyond GDP: Finance for Green, Blue and Sustainable Economies;
- Aggregative/agent-based models of Finance and Growth;
- Government, Public Policy, Welfare, Income Distribution, and Growth;
Psychological Game Theory is a formal framework for studying strategic interaction when players have belief-dependent motivations, such as intentions-based reciprocity, emotions (e.g. anger, guilt, regret, disappointment, anxiety), or concern with others’ opinion (e.g. social respect). The framework was first introduced by Geanakoplos, Pearce and Stacchetti (1989, GEB) and further developed by Battigalli and Dufwenberg (2009; JET). Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization (JEBO) will publish a special issue which aims to gather frontier related research. Relevant topics include
- basic theory,
- experimental tests,
- applied work, and
- reflections on the field.

Special Issue: Understanding Cognition and Decision Making by Children
Cognition and Decision making in children has attracted attention recently in the Economics literature. Understanding how children and adolescents reason about choices and make decisions is crucial to design policies around children and to enhance a favorable educational environment. Studying the developmental stages until adulthood is also critical to understand adult economic decision-making. These questions lie at the intersection of several disciplines including Economics, Psychology and Neuroscience.
Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization (JEBO) will publish a special issue which aims to gather frontier research related to the development of economic decision-making from childhood to adulthood. We encourage theoretical, experimental, applied and methodological articles on the subject.
Some of the articles will be presented at the 2nd Conference on Understanding cognition and decision making by children, to be held at the University of Southern California in May 2017.
