this article examines the basic assumption of rational expectations hypothesis on iran's economy from 1966 to 2003. this assumption suggests the neutrality or ineffectiveness of money policy on the development of real variables of production and employment. the results from estimation of production equation do not support the significant influence of unanticipated component of money growth...

Rational expectations are at the heart of the DSGE models maintained by central banks. A key equation which governs the evolution of prices in those models is the New Keynesian Phillips (NKPC) curve, in which today‟s rate of inflation is linked to expected future inflation. Expected future inflation is in turn modeled using rational expectations, which operationally means that forecast errors a...

It is well-known that the performance of acoustic-to-articulatory inversion improves by smoothing the articulatory trajectories estimated using Gaussian mixture model (GMM) mapping (denoted by GMM + Smoothing). GMM + Smoothing also provides similar performance with GMM mapping using dynamic features, which integrates smoothing directly in the mapping criterion. Due to the separation between smo...

This study examines institutions and economic growth: evidence from ECOWAS for 2000-2018. We use eight alternative variables to evaluate gross domestic product, fixed capital formation, population growth, foreign direct investment, control of corruption, government effectiveness, political stability & absence violence/terrorism, rule law. Then, we adopted the combined OLS model, effects ran...

in some of the new economic growth models, we pay attention to the effects of financial development on economic growth. this research investigates the relationship between capital market and economic growth in macro level during 1991-2011. the research is organized as follows: the introduction comes as the first section. in section ii, we review the literature on the relationship between econom...

This study examined the relationship between health expenditure and economic growth in sub-Saharan Africa. The General Method of Moments (GMM) estimation technique was used data covered period 2000-2019 for forty-six countries. results difference GMM-1 GMM-2 steps indicate that a 1% change public per capita (LPUHE_PC) is associated with 0.1362% 0.1521% rise GDP (GDP_PC) short run. system percen...
