this paper presents the application of multivariate time series model (ardl) to investigate factors affecting bread waste and to explore the relationships among shortrun, longrun and error correction coefficient and the independent variables over the period 1978-2006. results reveal that gross national product and urbanization have positive effects on bread waste in the long term, while the bre...

The use of machine learning for the image classification process is growing all time. Many methods can be used to classify an with good accuracy. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) are popular this case. two approaches have differences in data training achieve objectives. Although there some between these approaches, advantages both them. This research explores ...
