Investigating threshold effects of public debt on economic growth for Zambia (1980 - 2015).
… on economic growth in Zimbabwe by estimating a bivariate quadratic model and a multivariate model to control for model specification. The study additionally employs the Threshold Autoregressive (TAR) model to validate results from the optimization approach. The paper finds evidence of the …

Bivariate Log Location-Scale Model For Interval-Censored Data
… In this thesis, I consider a selected bivariate model concerning censored data. I rst review three basic univariate models, leading to corresponding bivariate models, in more complicated forms. Also I will discuss the properties of an actual, selected bi- variate model with …

Women's Sexual Self Schemas: A Cognitive Approach to Women's Sexuality
… has been reconceptualized in terms of a bivariate model, in which positive and negative components of women's sexual self views independently contribute to their schematic representations. Using this bivariate approach, four types of schematic representations have been delineated, …

Data-driven Investment Decisions in P2P Lending: Strategies of Integrating Credit Scoring and Profit Scoring
… method called the Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) model to predict the default risk of P2P lending at the aggregated level, thus providing investors a thorough understanding of the status of the whole P2P market first. Then we proposed three methods based on the integration of credit scoring and …

The institutional determinants of property regime change in new democracies: the Russian Federation, Hungary, and Czechoslovakia
… theories of institutions, testing of the simpler bivariate model of executive power proved to be indeterminate, except in isolated instances of decision making. Various configurations of executive power assumed importance in a more complex model that incorporates additional variables -- the power …

Determinants of E-Commerce Demand, Travel Behavior, and Travel-Related Expenditures Among U.S. Households
… Binomial Regression (ZINB), a Joint Bayesian Bivariate model, and a Log-Transformed Cobb-Douglas Demand function. The results from online shopping reveal that several socio-demographic variables, such as household members, car ownership, number of workers, adults, and young children in the …

The diagnositic test accuracy of serum procalcitonin compared to C-reactive protein for bone and joint infection in children and adolescents: A Systematic review and Meta-analysis
… was performed to estimate summary points using a bivariate model and generate a hierarchial summary receiver operating characteristic curve (HSROC) with global measures of test accuracy performance including likelihood ratio and diagnostic odds ratio. A narrative summary was provided where …

The Economics of Tobacco Production and Feasible Alternatives in Uganda
… from the study area. The study developed a bivariate model to examine economic and noneconomic incentives to tobacco supply. Relative farm efficiencies are examined with data envelopment analysis. A Tobit model is further used to estimate farm inefficiency among tobacco and other farm …

Study of genetic by environmental interactions at transcriptomic and genomic levels
… one-step indicators. In addition, a multi-SNP model was developed to assess the predictive power of several SNPs. Network and functional analyses of genes associated with feed efficiency aided in the interpretation of the results. Thirty-one, 40, and 25 SNPs (P-value < 0.0001), and six, ten, …

Truncation Models for Pareto and Exponential Distributions with Applications
… which is a useful power-law stochastic model for positive data that are subjected to truncation. We extend the standard TP model in the literature, where the main shape parameter α is assumed to be positive, to a more general case with an arbitrary α, and provide an account of its basic …
