A common export equation is used to describe the Czech export of machinery, tradable goods, agricultural and food products, and income from the tourist industry. Four important export regions are distinguished: Slovakia, Poland, Germany and USA. The problem of small data sample, which is a...

Currently, there is worldwide overcapacity in the industry - and this has forced manufacturers to contain and even reduce costs. Globalization makes it possible to use the world best improvement techniques in order to reduce costs and satisfy customer.

Most of the system dynamics studies that evaluate decision making in complex dynamic task focus on the evaluation of performance over repeated trials and on the effectiveness of different instructional strategies as far as performance is concerned. Especially when a strategy seems to yield...

We present an hierarchical Bayes approach to modeling parameter heterogeneity in generalized linear models. The model assumes that there are relevant subpopulations and that within each subpopulation the individual-level regression coefficients have a multivariate normal distribution. However,...

Recently Peres and Shields discovered a new method for estimating the order of a stationary fixed order Markov chain. They showed that the estimator is consistent by proving a threshold result. While this threshold is valid asymptotically in the limit, it is not very useful for DNA sequence...

The psychometric and classification literatures have illustrated the fact that a wide class of discrete or network models (e.g., hierarchical or ultrametric trees) for the analysis of ordinal proximity data are plagued by potential degenerate solutions if estimated using traditional nonmetric...
