Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConsumer Choice Prediction: Artificial Neural Networks versus Logistic ModelsChristopher Gan, Visit Limsombunchai, Mike Clemes, Amy WengConventional econometric models, such as discriminant analysis and logistic regression have been used to predict consumer choice. However, in recent years, there has been a growing interest in applying artificial neural networks (ANN) to analyse consumer behaviour and to model the consumer decision-making process. The purpose of this paper is to empirically compare the predictive power of the probability neural … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 8,444 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring the Relationship Between Skin Barrier Function, Sensitivity, and Repair MechanismsXiaoqing Yan, Yusong Shi, Jiguang YangFor healthy skin, the skin's barrier function must remain maintained. Many different molecular while immunological signaling mechanisms are involved in skin barrier control. The control of a healthy skin barrier, particularly acid mantle maintenance and proper amounts of ceramides, may help dermatologists develop remedies for skin barrier disruption disorders. In contrast, new medicines could focus on signaling pathways to offer … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 15 Feb 2026 · 1,905 accessesView PDFCite
