This paper examines the effectiveness of Japan’s Emergency Credit Guarantee (ECG) program set up during the financial turmoil following the failure of Lehman Brothers, in increasing credit availability and improving the ex-post performance of small businesses. In particular, using a unique firm-bank matched dataset, the paper examines whether lending relationships enhanced or dampened the effec...

One of the most complicated decision making problems for managers is the evaluation of bank performance, which involves various criteria. There are many studies about bank efficiency evaluation by network DEA in the literature review. These studies do not focus on multi-level network. Wu (Eur J Oper Res 207:856–864, 2010) proposed a bi-level structure for cost efficiency at the first time. In t...

in this paper, by using a model of the new keynesians, we investigated the role of the central bank's accountability to shocks that causes deviations in the performance of the monetary policymakers. for this purpose, we used quarterly data for 69: 1 to 93: 3, and estimated the basic equations of the new keynesians model. then, by calculating the optimal values for the central bank's a...

By employing nonuniform nonunitary lter bank in an image coder increased performance in terms of both theoretical and practical (PSNR) coding gains, and subjective quality can be obtained. One possible candidate is octave-band tree-structured lter banks. In this paper, an optimized perfect reconstruction octave-band three-stage tree-structured lter bank is proposed. The lter coeecients are opti...

This paper is concerned with the use of complexmodulated oversampled filter bank for frequency domain equalization in single carrier systems. A novel equalizer structure consisting of a low order linear phase FIR and an all-pass filter is applied in subband-wise compensation of channel amplitude and phase distortions separately. The performance of the proposed filter bank based frequency domain...
