â â â  â â  abstract â  the importance of community's health followed by the consideration of endogenous growth models has led to an increase in health expenditure of countries to speed up economic growth and development. this has made the efficiency of health production function to an essential issue especially in developing countries. based upon this, the present study with employing the...

© 1992 by Cornell University 0001-8392/92/3702-0336/$1.00. Tournament models have developed into an important component of the theoretical literature on organizational reward systems. However, with one exception there have been no empirical tests of the incentive effects of tournament models in a field setting. Drawing on a panel data set from auto racing, we show that the tournament spread (pr...

Machine learning (ML) depends on data to train and verify models. Very often, organizations outsource processes related work (i.e., generating annotating evaluating outputs) through business process outsourcing (BPO) companies crowdsourcing platforms. This paper investigates outsourced ML in Latin America by studying three platforms Venezuela a BPO Argentina. We lean the Foucauldian notion of d...

A review of field production data reveals that usually, it is very difficult to apply available decline models because of poor quality and often noisy character of initial data and also unrealistic assumptions of the models. This paper tries to introduce applicable procedures to correct initial data and reproduce missed data. Corrected data are analyzed and finally, the results for permeability...

background determinants of health or health production function in health economics literature constitute noticeable issues in health promotion. this study aimed at estimating a health production function for east mediterranean region (emr) based on the grossman theoretical model.   methods this ecological study was performed using the econometric methods. the panel data model was used in order...

generally, a typical problem which is crucial in a manufacturing system is increasing the production rate.  to cope with the problem, different types of techniques are used in companies by trial and error which imposes high costs on them. using simulation as a tool for assessing the effect of alterations on the performance of the overall system might be significant. this paper considers a simul...
