We consider the problem of constructing bounds on the average treatment effect (ATE) when unmeasured confounders exist but have bounded influence. Specifically, we assume that omitted confounders could not change the odds of treatment for any unit by more than a fixed factor. We derive the sharp partial identification bounds implied by this assumption by leveraging distributionally robust optimization, and we propose estimators of these bounds with several novel robustness properties. The first is double sharpness: our estimators consistently estimate the sharp ATE bounds when one of two nuisance parameters is misspecified and achieve semiparametric efficiency when all nuisance parameters are suitably consistent. The second is double validity: even when most nuisance parameters are misspecified, our estimators still provide valid but possibly conservative bounds for the ATE and our Wald confidence intervals remain valid even when our estimators are not asymptotically normal. As a result, our estimators provide a highly credible method for sensitivity analysis of causal inferences.

This thesis makes new observations of market phenomena for various commodities and trading strategies centered around these observations. In particular, our results imply that many aspects of the commodities markets, from delivery markets to producers and consumer derivative based ETFs can be modeled eectively using nancial engineering techniques. Chapter 2 examines what drives the returns of gold miner stocks and ETFs. Inspired by our real options model, we construct a method to dynamically replicate gold miner stocks using two factors: a spot gold ETF and a market equity portfolio. We find that our real options approach can explain a significant portion of the drivers of firm implied gold leverage. Chapter 3 studies commodity exchange-traded funds (ETFs). From empirical data, we find that many commodity leveraged ETFs underperform significantly against our constructed dynamic benchmark, and we quantify such a discrepancy via the novel idea of realized effective fee. Finally, we consider a number of trading strategies and examine their performance by backtesting with historical price data. Chapter 4 studies the phenomenon of non-convergence between futures and spot prices in the grains market. In our proposed approach, we incorporate stochastic spot price and storage cost, and solve an optimal double stopping problem to understand shipping certificate prices. Our new models for stochastic storage rates explain the spot-futures premium.

- Abstract
On orbit assembly of spacecraft has historically involved human intensive robotic operations. To facilitate this construction process the U.S. Naval Academy is augmenting its current robotic arm capabilities with the Intelligent Space Assembly Robot (ISAR) program. This research is aimed to identify key requirements and select a 3D camera for use in ISAR's robotic operations. The research has three stages: 1) requirements identification, 2) ground testing and 3) an on orbit demonstration. The camera requirements were identified based on the current robotic arm capacity of the previous version of the arms, and three cameras (Intel R200, DuoM, and Tara) were chosen for further testing. Terrestrial testing consisted of demonstrating capabilities of each camera by taking and processing photos of a test satellite that represented common spacecraft features. The second phase of testing was a comparison of real and measured depth data using CloudCompare software. This paper also details the design modifications required to incorporate the updated sensors as well as an outline for ground testing of the system. The on orbit demonstration of the system’s capabilities is planned to occur in 2019 with the launch of ISAR to the interior of the International Space Station as a payload science experiment.
