Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Consumers Behavior on the Variables Determining Residential Property Values in Lagos, NigeriaM.O. Bello, V.A. BelloThe objective of this study was to assess the influence of consumer behaviour on the variables determining residential property values in Lagos metropolis and how Nigerian valuers are incorporating these in their valuation exercise. The survey which was carried out within a period of three months (January, February and March 2006) involved buyers and valuers which participated in the sales … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2007 · 7,206 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Slope Assessment Systems for Predicting Landslides of Cut Slopes in Granitic and Meta-sediment FormationsSuhaimi Jamaludin, Bujang B.K. Huat, Husaini OmarIn Malaysia, slope assessment systems (SAS) are widely used in assessing the instability of slope or the probability of occurrence and the likely severity of landslides. These SAS can be derived based on either one particular approach or combination of several approaches of landslide assessments and prediction. This study overviews four slope assessment systems (SAS) developed in Malaysia for predicting … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,909 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScenarios Analysis of Tourism DestinationsAnastasios Michailidis, Fotis ChatzitheodoridisThis study describes a multi-criteria decision-making framework employed to evaluate and rank three tourism destinations, located in the northern and central Greece. Additionally, innovatory elements are the incorporation of differing levels of socioeconomic data (destination image and destination personality) within the decision framework and the direct determination of the PROMETHEE II preference thresholds. The developed methodology provides a user-friendly approach, … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,490 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Dynamic Weight Assignment Approach for Index TermsKamel E. Haouam, Farhi MarirCurrently in the development of Informational Retrieval (IR) systems, a set of keywords represents the semantics of a text document and after assigning weights to the set of keywords, they are used for indexing, searching and retrieval purposes. The current approaches for assigning weights are provided by an IR model that is used by an IR system. The main objective … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,943 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Total Productivity PCA Model for Assessment and Improvement of Electrical Manufacturing SystemsAli Azadeh, Farid GhaderiThis study presents a framework for assessment of electrical manufacturing systems based on a total machine productivity approach and multivariate analysis. Furthermore, the total model is developed by Principle Component Analysis (PCA) and validated and verified by Numerical Taxonomy (NT) and non-parametric correlation methods, namely, Spearman correlation experiment and Kendall Tau. To achieve the objectives of this study, a comprehensive … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,270 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Crop Yield Detection and Prediction With Multimodal Data Using Fusion TechniquesKutlwano Sedimo, Rajalakshmi Selveraj, Venumadhav Kuthadi, Thulaganyo DimakatsoMost often, soil, environmental, and agronomic data are used in pieces, hence limiting the performance of crop selection and yield forecasting. This study develops an integrated, fusion-based framework that combines soil image classification, environmental feature analysis, and input-driven yield prediction to support precise agricultural decision-making. The system consists of three major modules: (i) a CNN for the classification of soil … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 10 · 5 Oct 2026 · 481 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptive Cross-Validation Under Concept Drift for Time Series ForecastingKunjira Kingphai, Prapakorn Kanjina, Kamol Sanittham, Wacharong WongsanurakTime-series forecasting often involves non-stationary data, making i.i.d. validation unreliable and fixed-window protocols vulnerable to leakage and biased error estimates. We propose Adaptive Time-Series Cross-Validation (ATSCV), a drift-aware evaluation framework that uses statistical change-point detection to partition each series into contiguous, approximately stationary regimes, followed by forward-chaining folds that respect those boundaries. By aligning train–validation splits with distributional changes (with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 7 · 7 Jul 2026 · 1,488 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimized XGBoost for Ethereum Fraud Detection: A Cost-Sensitive ApproachSupriya P., Rubah Sheriff, Shreya Padaki et al.In today’s technologically advancing world, many fields from finance to healthcare and education are shifting toward a digital and decentralized format. A significant transformation is underway with the currency of the masses. Blockchain-based cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum allow users to generate fungible tokens anonymously through smart contracts. However, these features also facilitate illicit transactions and cybercrimes like fraud, phishing, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 12 · 10 Jan 2026 · 2,770 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModified Human Development Index using Data Envelopment Analysis ApproachYasmine Refai Salama, Ramadan Hamed, Mahmoud RashwanComposite Indicator is considered themathematical aggregation which has wide usage for monitoring performances,conducting benchmarks, analyzing policies, and communicating publicly. HumanDevelopment Index (HDI) is the most popular index which measures humandevelopment through average achievement in its main dimensions: Health status,education status, and living standard but it is faced with several critiques,positive and negative. Moreover, HDI was tested to have a positive … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 26 Sep 2022 · 6,088 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermining Relationships Among the Adoption Parameters of Computers and Internet in Agriculture: An Application of Probit ModelAnastasios MichailidisThe main reason for carrying out this study was to determine possible relationships among several adoption parameters of computer use, internet usage and internet access in agriculture. The key options for determining relationships (apart from non-parametric correlation techniques) are canonical correlation analysis, probit models and logit models. Canonical correlation analysis is generally seen as a weaker statistical technique than probit … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,524 accessesView PDFCite
