the selection of efficient and creative personnels contributes to a justifiable and acceptable potentiality of organizations, for efficiency of an organization is connected with the speciality and the commitment of its active personnels. since efficiency is more than merely increasing profit and production, some other value, moral, legal categories are of significance in selecting personnels. g...

Landmarking is a recent and promising meta-learning strategy, which defines meta-features that are themselves efficient learning algorithms. However, the choice of landmarkers is often made in an ad hoc manner. In this paper, we propose a new perspective and set of criteria for landmarkers. Based on the new criteria, we propose a landmarker generation algorithm, which generates a set of landmar...

The evaluation of hydrologic model behaviour and performance is commonly made and reported through comparisons of simulated and observed variables. Frequently, comparisons are made between simulated and measured streamflow at the catchment outlet. In distributed hydrological modelling approaches, additional comparisons of simulated and observed measurements for multi-response validation may be ...

− The paper presents problems of compressing measurement signals recorded under long-lasting monitoring conditions. The criteria for compression method selection in view of its efficiency (compression ratio) and quality of conversion (coding-decoding procedure), with regard to dynamic properties of the measurement signals are discussed. Attention is given to the interdependence of the achieved ...

bullwhip effect phenomenon is what reduces the efficiency of the supply chain. the effect occurs when demand changes in the supply chain face with a lot of volatility. so far, several key factors have been identified as causes of this phenomenon. since the steel industry, is the basic one, its efficiency is of great importance. therefore, in this study influencing factors on bullwhip effect in ...

This paper concerns the cubic smoothing spline approach to nonparametric regression. After first deriving sharp asymptotic formulas for the eigenvalues of the smoothing matrix, the paper uses these formulas to investigate the efficiency of different selection criteria for choosing the smoothing parameter. Special attention is paid to the generalized maximum likelihood (GML), Cp and extended exp...

Conjoint analysis has become the most used technique for measuring preferences for new products to be launched in the market. Experimental design models are key elements for its use in market research. Suchmodels involve amatrix in which attributes and levels are combined, making product concepts that respondents then evaluate. Experimental design has emerged as a key element in conjoint analys...
