Moments and Absolute Moments of the Normal Distribution
read the original abstract
We present formulas for the (raw and central) moments and absolute moments of the normal distribution. We note that these results are not new, yet many textbooks miss out on at least some of them. Hence, we believe that it is worthwhile to collect these formulas and their derivations in these notes.

The moment is here: a generalized class of estimators for fuzzy regression discontinuity designs
A generalized class of fuzzy RD estimators indexed by a tuning parameter ensures all finite moments from the data, nests standard FRD and SRD, and improves median bias and RMSE in simulations.

Mean Dimension of Ridge Functions
Mean dimension of ridge functions is bounded for Lipschitz cases as d grows to infinity, scales as O(sqrt(d)) for discontinuous non-sparse cases, and preintegration reduces it to O(1) under a non-vanishing coefficient...
