We exploit the introduction and removal of a nation-wide bank branch licensing rule which sought to increase and equalize bank branch presence across Indian states to estimate the e¤ect of rural bank openings on poverty. Between 1977 and 1990, to qualify for a license to open a branch in a census location which already had one or more bank branches an Indian bank had to open four branches in lo...

This study aims to determine the direct and indirect effects of China's exports imports on Indonesia's economic growth through exchange rate during 2000-2019. The method used is a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from publications Central Statistics Agency (BPS), World Bank Data, International Monetary Fund (IMF). analytical tool path analysis.

Aims. We test whether the universal initial mass function (UIMF) or the integrated galaxial IMF (IGIMF) can be employed to explain the metallicity distribution (MD) of giants in the Galactic bulge. Methods. We make use of a single-zone chemical evolution model developed for the Milky Way bulge in the context of an inside-out model for the formation of the Galaxy. We checked whether it is possib...

This research presents an investigation into the effects of metallicity and the initial mass function (IMF) on the star formation rates (SFRs) of star forming regions. Studies of SFRs at different eras in the universe help to understand galaxy formation and evolution and how stellar populations change over time. Photometry observations from the UH 2.2m telescope located on Mauna Kea and the Sup...

Interesting target detection and matching algorithm in complex natural backgrounds images is studied in this paper. Firstly, logGabor filter bank is analyzed, which is consistent with human visual system characteristics. Several kinds of local features from the filter bank can form the integrated feature. Integrated feature congruency (IFC) model is established. And upon compensating noise for ...
