T his study evaluates the causality relationship between human capital and foreign direct investment inflow in twenty-six OIC (the Organization of Islamic Cooperation) countries over the period 1970–2014. We employed the panel Granger non-causality testing approach of Kònya (2006) that is based on seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) systems, and Wald tests with country specific boot...

We propose a novel algorithm for the solution of mean-payoff games that merges together two seemingly unrelated concepts introduced in context parity games, small progress measures and quasi dominions. show integration notions can be highly beneficial significantly speeds up convergence to problem solution. Experiments resulting performs orders magnitude better than asymptotically-best currentl...

Economic success will provide benefits for improving people’s welfare. An important indicator to determine economic can be seen through inflation by calculating the Consumer Price Index (CPI). CPI is a time series data that influenced elements between locations. The GeneralizedSpace-Time Autoregressive (GSTAR) method suitable applied because it involves of and location (spatiotemporal). problem...

selection of best demand model for explaining of consumer behaviour is one of the most important issues in microeconomic. in this paper we introduce aids[1],cbs[2], nbr[3] and rotterdam model and estimate these models by iranian urban households data for period 1973-2012.seemingly unrelated regression method is chosen for estimation of 5 groups of commodities including food, housing, clothing, ...

Risk management and success in projects are highly intertwined – better approaches to project risk management tend to increase chances of project success in terms of achieving scope & quality, schedule and cost targets. The process of responding to risk factors during a project’s life cycle is a crucial aspect of risk management referred to as risk response strategies, in this paper. The curren...

In recursive linear models, the multivariate normal joint distribution of all variables exhibits a dependence structure induced by a recursive (or acyclic) system of linear structural equations. These linear models have a long tradition and appear in seemingly unrelated regressions, structural equation modelling, and approaches to causal inference. They are also related to Gaussian graphical mo...
