Spatial Practices in the Space of Haze City
In: Space and Culture, Band 22, Heft 2, S. 111-125
ISSN: 1552-8308
As China undergoes rapid industrialization and urbanization, haze has become a serious environmental problem, which has brought about some significant changes to the urban space. By examining the changes to the space in haze city using a social–cultural approach, the article suggests a triadic conception of spatial practice in a haze city and analyzes its three component factors: risk experience, stress behavior, and resistant discourse. People's risk experience in haze space has led to a behavioral tendency toward isolation or escape and resulted in the creation of an ironic folk humor culture as a discourse of resistance. The author believes that people's spatial practice in haze city has been exerting increasing pressures on the Chinese authorities, urging them to take measures to improve the environment.

Representation and Visual Politics of the Extreme Body
The beautiful human body has perennially occupied a central space in art. Both art and aesthetics maintain the beauty of the human body as the focal point of artistic expression and philosophical thought. However, modern art has thoroughly overturned the idea of the beautiful body and the aesthetic principles of its expression, creating a completely new form of representing the body—the extreme body. The extreme body has become a mainstream image eagerly embraced by modern artists. Transgressed representations, visual discomfort, and the body becoming a goal in and of itself, has dramatically altered the paradigm of the body in modern art.

Statistical inference on seemingly unrelated varying coefficient partially linear models
In: Statistica Neerlandica: journal of the Netherlands Society for Statistics and Operations Research, Band 64, Heft 2, S. 227-253
ISSN: 1467-9574
This paper is concerned with the statistical inference on seemingly unrelated varying coefficient partially linear models. By combining the local polynomial and profile least squares techniques, and estimating the contemporaneous correlation, we propose a class of weighted profile least squares estimators (WPLSEs) for the parametric components. It is shown that the WPLSEs achieve the semiparametric efficiency bound and are asymptotically normal. For the non‐parametric components, by applying the undersmoothing technique, and taking the contemporaneous correlation into account, we propose an efficient local polynomial estimation. The resulting estimators are shown to have mean‐squared errors smaller than those estimators that neglect the contemporaneous correlation. In addition, a class of variable selection procedures is developed for simultaneously selecting significant variables and estimating unknown parameters, based on the non‐concave penalized and weighted profile least squares techniques. With a proper choice of regularization parameters and penalty functions, the proposed variable selection procedures perform as efficiently as if one knew the true submodels. The proposed methods are evaluated using wide simulation studies and applied to a set of real data.
