Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleForecasting Financial Market Annual Performance Measures: Further Evidence+Edward J. Lusk, Michael Halperin, Atanas Tetikov, Niya StefanovaProblem statement: Forecasting is simple; producing accurate forecasts is the essential task. Experience suggests that financial managers often assume that because models used in forecasting are appropriate that they are effective. This study addresses this assumption. Effective is taken to mean forecasts where the Absolute Percentage Error (APE) is equal to or less than 10%. It has been reported that … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,526 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInformation Provided by Accrual and Cash Flow Measures in Determining Firms’ Performance: Malaysian EvidenceNorita Mohd Nasir, Shamsul Nahar AbdullahAccrual and cash flow measures have been argued to be able to evaluate firms’ performance, although the results are inconclusive throughout countries and time. This study examined the accrual and cash flow measures independently and jointly among Malaysian firms. The study predicted that the low cash flow subgroups (high income to cash flow firms) would show better results in operating, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 7,327 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCognitive Workload Assessment: A Comprehensive ReviewNegin Ozve Aminian, William Michael, Mehdi GhoreyshiMental workload during high-effort tasks is a crucial measure of effective task performance. Maintaining cognitive demands within an individual's capacity enables the effective performance of complex multi-tasking. Conversely, surpassing this margin may lead to unpredictable and suboptimal performance. This review explores human mental workload assessment across real-world tasks like aircraft piloting, vehicle driving under challenging conditions, and automated power plant … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 20 Aug 2025 · 7,554 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAdjusted Transformation Methods for Reproduction Quality ControlEmmanouil-Nektarios Kalligeris, Alex Karagrigoriou, Kostantinos Ladopoulos, Christina Parpoulan this paper we introduce adjusted transformation methods for off-line quality control. The proposed methods result in proper performance measures for the determination of the controllable factors that affect the mean and variability of the response variable of interest. The details of the proposed adjusted transformations are provided and compared with the well-known Box and Coxtransformation and the safeguard method … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 22 Oct 2019 · 6,873 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsClay Vs. Grass: A Statistical Comparison of the French Open and WimbledonMichael R. SummersProblem statement: While most professional tennis tournaments today are played on hard courts, there is a short clay court season culminating in the French Open and an even shorter grass court season culminating in Wimbledon, where specialists on those surfaces have their chance to shine. Conventional thinking has it that these two surfaces play so differently that it is difficult … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 14 Jun 2011 · 8,204 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsArtificial Neural Network Based Model for Forecasting Sugar Cane ProductionO. O. Obe, D. K. ShangodoyinProblem statement: The global need for alternative energy source has necessitated the exploration of vast organic agricultural products with a view of processing them for the production of ethanol in commercial quantity. To ascertain a sustainable production of ethanol from processed sugar cane, a predictive model based on non-linearity nature of its production is imperative. This is due to unavailability … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,268 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbsolute Measures of Interindividual Variation: A Simulation StudyJosé Moral-de la RubiaFour absolute measures and one relative measure of interindividual variability have been defined, together with their point and interval estimation (bootstrap and asymptotic), and an R script has been developed for their computation. However, further simulation studies are required to strengthen their methodological evaluation. This study focused on the three absolute measures with potentially better regularity conditions, Mean Interindividual Differences … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 4 Aug 2026 · 957 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Approach for Differentiating AI-Generated and Real Images Using Gabor and Color Layout Filters (GF and CLF)G. Ayyappan, A. Thankaraj, S. Surendran et al.The emergence of generative AI images has profoundly upended the art world. Distinguishing AI-generated images from human-created artwork is increasingly challenging. If this issue remains unresolved, dishonest individuals may exploit those who are willing to pay more for original artwork and businesses whose stated policies exclude AI graphics. There are a number of methods for differentiating AI photos from human … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 3 Mar 2026 · 1,751 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSparse Partial Optimal Transport via Quadratic RegularizationKhang Tran, Khoa Nguyen, Anh Nguyen et al.Partial Optimal Transport (POT) has recently emerged as a central tool in various Machine Learning (ML) applications. It lifts the stringent assumption of the conventional Optimal Transport (OT) that input measures are of equal masses, which is often not guaranteed in real-world datasets, and thus offers greater flexibility by permitting transport between unbalanced input measures. Nevertheless, existing major solvers for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 7 · 17 Jul 2025 · 3,905 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Stanford Dependency Relations for Commonsense Knowledge Representation of Winograd Schema Challenge (WSC)Nesreen Alsharman, Raja Masadeh, Ibrahim Ali Jawarneh, Ahmad Al-Rababa’aAn alternative to the Turing Test that could offer a more accurate measurement of artificial intelligence is the Winograd Schema Challenge (WSC). It presents a number of coreference resolution issues that cannot be resolved without the use of human behavior reasoning. A certain type of Commonsense Knowledge (CSK) is necessary for Winograd schema. In order to handle the representation of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 9 · 10 Jul 2024 · 4,743 accessesView PDF Cite
