Abstract:

This study was issued by Swedbank because they wanted too improve their GDP growth forecast capabilites. A program was developed and tested on six countries; USA, Sweden, Germany, UK, Brazil and Norway. In this paper I investigate if I can reduce forecasting error for GDP growth by taking a smart average from a variety of models compared to both the best individual models and a random walk. I combine the forecasts from four model groups: Vector autoregression, principal component analysis, machine learning and random walk. The smart average is given by a system that give more weight to the pr

Abstract:

As a culturally distinctive region, Asia was chosen as the sample for this study. This empirical study investigated what the major trends of democratisation were in Asia between 1981 and 2005: why some countries became democratic while other countries failed to follow suit during that period. The main research hypothesis was: “That is it was mainly economic development that drove democratisation in Asia between 1981 and 2005”. Although some studies have studied the impact of economic development on democratisation in Asia, their findings have been inconclusive and focuses sometimes different.

Abstract:

Energy demand projections are essential tools that enable policymakers, engineers, scientists, stakeholders and investors to assess the future energy needs of a country and understand the technical, economic, social and environmental costs associated with meeting this demand. Such tools become further indispensable in the case of developing countries, where past consumption trends alone cannot indicate the trajectory of their future energy demand. Transport is one of the largest consumers of energy among all the end-use sectors. In 2018, it accounted for almost 29% of the total final consumpti

Research shows that by age 3 children who live in poverty are likely to have heard 30 million fewer words than their wealthiest peers. For children with disabilities from less affluent homes, this is an important issue.

This research documents the development of three novel mobile applications and the subsequent user experiences observed during the deployment of these applications using an 'in the wild' methodology. These experiences were aimed at evaluating the use of anchors that help to bridge the gap between digital and tangible. Two distinct avenues of interest are explored, firstly an investigation was carried out into the use of a physical anchor (an ambient device); and then progresses on to review more contextual anchors that manifest from the use of location, environmental, spatial and temporal data

We look into reasons for the malaise that people experience when confronted with wind power projects and propose that aspects of the Romantic era still prevail in and influence how humans relate to the world today. We show that the human relation to nature and technology is influenced by Romanticism providing one additional explanation for the social acceptance of wind power that has not yet been addressed in research.

Abstract:

Several researchers have successfully developed realistic models of real world objects/ phenomena and then have simulated them in the virtual world. In this thesis, we propose the opposite: instantiating virtual world events in the real world. The interactive 3D virtual environment provides a useful, realistic 3D world that resembles objects/phenomena of a real world, but it has limited capability to communicate with the physical environment. We argue that new and intuitive 3D user interfaces, such as 3D virtual environment interfaces, may provide an alternative form of media for communicating

Much work has focused on the computational treatment of sense ambiguity, primarily using data-driven methods.

Antenna tilt is the angle subtended by the radiation beam and horizontal plane. This angle plays a vital role in determining the coverage and the interference of the network with neighbouring cells and adjacent base stations. Traditional methods for network optimization rely on rule-based heuristics to do decision making for antenna tilt optimization to achieve desired network characteristics. However, these methods are quite brittle and are incapable of capturing the dynamics of communication traffic.

Abstract:

University of Technology, Sydney. Faculty of Science.<br>The aim of this thesis is to price contingent claims under the real-world probability measure. Real-world pricing results naturally by selecting the numeraire as the growth optimal portfolio (GOP). Under this approach, the existence of an equivalent risk-neutral probability measure is not required. Furthermore, the GOP can be used to define other basic contingent claims, such as exchange prices, primary security accounts, and even zero-coupon bonds. We begin with application of the real-world pricing formula to derive forward prices for

The Japanese government’s apologies are considered to still not be enough. Old age is claiming survivors of the war before their demands for justice are being satisfied making it all the more urgent to resolve this situation. What Japan and and other involved nations do will affect regional relations in Asia and how future generations view truth and history. Legally Japan occupies a strong positio

Abstract:

The intellectual impulsiveness of man to understand the unknown and the continual need of the society to improve healthcare have encouraged extensive investigation on numerous and diverse cause-and-effect relationships. The nature of this endeavor, however, renders the inability of investigator at all levels to escape beyond the narrow conceptual boundary described by an early French philosopher as the vicious cycle. To enjoy the theoretically plausible benefits of refined labor division, data-driven healthcare management, and real-time evidence-based practices, it must first be acknowledged t

Abstract:

In recent years, there have been several proposals for large-scale human genotyping projects in the developing world. The dissertation presented here explores the motivations, opportunities and challenges of initiating locally led, large-scale genotyping projects documenting human genomic variation in the developing world. I analyze two case studies: the Indian Genome Variation Consortium in India and the University of Cape Town, Department of Human Genetics and the African Genomics Education Initiative in South Africa. These case studies, together with similar projects in Mexico and Thailand

Abstract:

Language development in children depends on domain-specific language mechanisms, biases and domain-general cognitive development (i.e., executive functions [EFs]). Additionally, both language proficiency and EFs underpin new learning and predict academic success and lifelong wellbeing. However, despite the intuitive assumption that EFs are involved in the development of language, the relationship between word-learning abilities and EFs is not fully understood. Therefore, the present thesis addresses this gap by examining novel word learning under three different scenarios integrating three mai

Abstract:

The thesis being presented aims to stress the differences between characters in fictional worlds and characters in storyworlds by means of question of possibilities and limits of reader's inferences. The aims of this thesis is to prove that storyworld construed as a mental model manages to avoid some problems that relate to fictional worlds theories. First chapter provides an insight into the issue of definitions and theories of character and places cognitive approaches to character within it. Since a concept of fictional world and a concept of storyworld are often construed as very alike, in

Abstract:

The first appearance of Augmented Reality (AR), a technology that mixes the real and virtual world through a device, goes back to 1968. An increasingly impact of digitalization in our society lead to the change of many business models and it has had an impact on retail. Retailers are now experimenting new ways to meet customer needs and expectations to remain competitive in the digital environment. Market pressure lead companies to invest more in technologies such as AR to improve their websites and platforms and work as a differentiation. This thesis seeks to investigate the impact of A
