In their recent paper, Hu et al. (2011) make the claim that Granger causality (GC) does not capture how strongly one time series influences another. Given the sizeable literature on GC, this claim could be considered radical. We examined this claim, and found that it is based essentially on semantics. Hu et al. (2011) would like a measure of causal interaction to explicitly quantify an underlyi...

The answer of most, if not all, UX researchers and practitioners, would probably be “It depends!” As we were motivated to find out “depending on what”, we conducted semi-structured interviews with eleven UX professionals where a set ...
متن کاملThe Comparison of Applying a Designed Model to Measure Credit Risk Between Melli and Mellat Banks
The main purpose of this paper is providing a model to calculate the credit risk of Melli bank clients and implement it at Mellat Bank. Therefore, the present study uses a multi-layered neural network method. The statistical population of this research is all real and legal clients of Melli and Mellat banks. Sampling method used in this research is a simple random sampling method. Friedman test...
متن کاملAssessment of an electronic goniometer designed to measure equinus contracture.
To achieve more objective and repeatable measurements of equinus contracture, we developed the equinometer, a device that allows the measurement of ankle range of motion under controlled torque conditions. This study assessed its accuracy across different subjects and examiners. Two examiners used the equinometer to measure the angle of ankle dorsiflexion at 15 N x m torque on five subjects. Ac...
متن کاملBreast cancer risk not only was not associated with CYP17/A2 allele but also was related to A1 allele
Introduction: Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in the world and the most common cancer in Iranian women in terms of rate. The cytochrome P-450c17α (CYP17) gene, located on chromosome 10q24.3, encodes the enzyme cytochrome P-450c17α, which functions as a susceptibility factor in breast cancer. Material and methods: Three common polymorphisms have been described in the CYP17 gene. T...
