    2005-DieboldEtAl-Modeling Bond Yields In Finance And Macroeconomics
    From a macroeconomic perspective, the short-term interest rate is a policy instrument under the direct control of the central bank. From a finance perspective, long rates are risk-adjusted averages of expected future short rates.

    2011-Gaff-Lenhart-Use of optimal control models to predict treatment time for managing tick-borne disease
    Tick-borne diseases have been on the rise recently, and correspondingly, there is an increased interest in implementing control measures to decrease the risk. Optimal control provides an ideal tool to identify the best method for reducing risk.

    2014-Wang-EtAl-Estimating Mixed-Effects Differential Equation Models
    When multiple replicates of measurements are available for the dynamic process, it is of great interest to estimate mixed-effects in the ODE model for the process. We propose a semiparametric method to estimate mixed-effects ODE models.
