Review and classification of electric load forecasting (LF) techniques based on artificial neuralnetworks (ANN) is presented. A basic ANNs architectures used in LF reviewed. A wide range of ANNoriented applications for forecasting are given in the literature. These are classified into five groups:(1) ANNs in short-term LF, (2) ANNs in mid-term LF, (3) ANNs in long-term LF, (4) Hybrid ANNs inLF,...

This work models the interconnection of company's investment managers' representations and the market attraction of its shares. The models that reflect the connection of the company's market effectiveness indices and parameters of its economic activity are created on the basis of the MeanVariance Analysis and Regression Analysis. On another side, expert evaluation methods also clarified the sam...

this paper provides a fuzzy based decision support system (dss) for risk analysis in e-tourism ( electronic tourism ) investment. in general term, e-tourism is the use of information and communication technology (ict) in tourism which may allow operating tourism in least variable cost, least time and increased work efficiency. it is worth noting that there are many factors that affect the deve...

With the improvement of complex and uncertain finance environment, the difficulty of portfolio problem is increasing. Whether or not the projects is successfully selected, directly affects the development of the investment companies. This paper firstly talks about the finance conditions in single term investment and then extends the investment from one term to many terms. After that, a multi-pr...

Calculating total cast of bank resources procurement methods which include current -free loan deposit, saving interest-free loan deposit, regular and net short-term investment deposit, long-term investment deposit and surety bond cash deposit and presenting their optimal integration require precise scientific studies. Hence, this study is an attempt to know which methods are the best optimal in...

The article investigates the investment and financial constraints for French, Hungarian and Slovenian farms using FADN panel data with different econometric estimation approaches. Farm gross investment is positively associated with real sales growth and cash flow implying the absence of soft budget constraint. Gross farm investment is positively associated with investment subsidies. Specific re...

Modifying the proof of a theorem of Wilkie, it is shown that if a one dimnsional set S is definable in an O minimal expansion of the ordered field of the reals, and if it is regularly exponentially near to many integral points, then there is an unbounded set, which is R definable without parameters, and which is exponentially near to S.

In this article we will describe some of the main developments in interest-rate modelling since Black & Scholes’ (1973) and Merton’s (1973) original articles on the pricing of equity derivatives. In particular, we will focus on continuoustime, arbitrage-free models for the full term structure of interest rates. Other models which model a limited number of key interest rates or which operate in ...

This paper is advancing the following premise (henceforth, “vision”): that it is feasible to greatly enhance data movement in the short term, and do it in ways that would be both power efficient and pragmatic in the long term. The paper spells this premise out in greater detail: 1. it is feasible to build first generations of a variety of (power-inefficient) designs for which data movement will...
