IT outsourcing has three broad forms: (i) Single-Sourcing, where the client outsources to one primary vendor, (ii) Single-Sourcing with subcontracting , where the primary vendor involves other/secondary vendors in the project, and (iii) Multi-Sourcing, where the client outsources to multiple primary vendors. Using a dataset of large IT outsourcing contracts from the SCD database with 22,031 lar...

Learning the gradient of neuron's activity function like the weight of links causes a new specification which is flexibility. In flexible neural networks because of supervising and controlling the operation of neurons, all the burden of the learning is not dedicated to the weight of links, therefore in each period of learning of each neuron, in fact the gradient of their activity function, coop...

the aim of the present study was the estimation of (co) variance components and genetic parameters for body weight of moghani sheep, using random regression models based on b-splines functions. the data set included 9165 body weight records from 60 to 360 days of age from 2811 moghani sheep, collected between 1994 to 2013 from jafar-abad animal research and breeding institute, ardabil province,...
