Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Analysis of Credit Scoring for Agricultural Loans in ThailandVisit Limsombunchai, Christopher Gan, Minsoo LeeLoan contract performance determines the profitability and stability of the financial institutions and screening the loan applications is a key process in minimizing credit risk. Before making any credit decisions, credit analysis (the assessment of the financial history and financial backgrounds of the borrowers) should be completed as part of the screening process. A good credit risk assessment assists financial … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2005 · 7,622 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTrade-GDP Nexus in Iran: An Application of the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) ModelMosayeb Pahlavani, Ed Wilson, Andrew C. WorthingtonThis study employed annual time series data (1960-2003) and unit root tests with multiple breaks to determine the most likely times of structural breaks in major factors impacting on the trade-GDP nexus in Iran We found, inter alia, that the endogenously determined structural breaks coincided with important events in the Iranian economy, including the 1979 Islamic revolution and the outbreak … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 8,523 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTax Revenues and Economic Growth: An Empirical Investigation for Greece Using Causality AnalysisThomas Anastassiou, Chaido DritsakiThis study examines the relationship between tax revenues and the rate of economic growth for Greece. The viewpoint that the low ratio of direct to indirect taxation promotes high economic growth has been a main subject for discussion. However, not many papers have attempted to test the above hypothesis. One of the main problems that researchers are facing is the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 8,345 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Use of Neural Networks in Real-time Face DetectionKevin Curran, Xuelong Li, Neil M. CaughleyAs continual research is being conducted in the area of computer vision, one of the most practical applications under vigorous development is in the construction of a robust real-time face detection system. Successfully constructing a real-time face detection system not only implies a system capable of analyzing video streams, but also naturally leads onto the solution to the problems of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,023 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Causal Relationship and Macroeconomic Activity: Empirical Results From European UnionChaido Dritsaki, Antonios AdamopoulosThis study investigates the relationship among macroeconomic variables using quarterly data for European Union covering the period from 1970 I to 2000 IV. The purpose of this study is to estimate the dynamic interrelation among macroeconomic variables such as money, gross domestic product, interest rates, level of price and exchange rates. For the empirical analysis of this investigation, we employ … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariation in the Thickness of A Fluid Interface Due to Internal Wave Propagation: A Lattice Boltzmann SimulationJ.M. Buick, D.B. Hann, J.A. CosgroveThe change in the thickness of an interface between two immiscible fluids due to the propagation of an internal capillary-gravity wave along the interface is considered using a Bhatnagar, Gross and Krook (BGK) lattice Boltzmann model of a binary of fluid. The vertical thickness of the interface is recorded from the simulations since this is the most easily measured quantities … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 7,251 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,527 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractON THE CHALLENGES OF THE USE AND INTEGRATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCESMariano MartínOverview: Although renewable energy sources are plentiful, their availability is highly volatile in time and distributed across regions while and the processes that transform them into useful power or chemicals are underdeveloped. In this work we discuss on the scope for the use and integration of renewable energy sources and the future development of the alternatives. Energy, the sources and … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 11 Sep 2014 · 7,543 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION OF SARCOCYTIS FUSIFORMIS AND SARCOCYSTIS BUFFALONIS INFECTING WATER BUFFALOES (BUBALUS BUBALIS) FROM EGYPTMahmoud El-Seify, Ahmed El-Morsey, Mosaad Hilali et al.Parasites of the genus Sarcocystis have the ability to infect wide range of animals, birds and reptiles. Water buffaloes are intermediate hosts for four Sarcocystis species; S. fusiformis, S. buffalonis, S. levinei and S. dubeyi. There was no previous molecular identification of Sarcocystis spp. parasitizing water buffaloes from Egypt. The current study was established to screen infection rates and apply … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 16 Apr 2014 · 7,943 accessesView PDFCite
