Since December 2019 we have been living with the virus known as SARS-CoV-2, a situation which has led to health policies being given prevalence over economic ones and has caused a paralysis in the demand for raw materials for several months due to the number confinements put in place around the...

In recent decades, a growing interest in the micro and meso economic foundations of competitiveness has emerged worldwide. Many authors have seek to explain this phenomenon using approaches that rely on endogenous and relational capabilities of firms. Relational capabilities are exercised in...

Emerging in the twenty-first century, Network Science provides practical measures to interpret a system's interactions between the components and their links. Literature has focused on countries' interconnections on the final goods, but its application on the value-added from a network...

In this paper, we document the importance of memory in machine learning (ML)-based models relying on firm characteristics for asset pricing. We find that predictive algorithms perform best when they are trained on long samples, with long-term returns as dependent variables. In addition, we...

Credit risk is the most significant risk by impact for any bank and financial institution. Accurate credit risk assessment affects an organisation's balance sheet and income statement, since credit risk strategy determines pricing, and might even influence seemingly unrelated domains, e.g....

The prediction of financial distress has emerged as a significant concern over a prolonged period spanning more than half a century. This subject has garnered considerable attention owing to the precise outcomes derived from its predictive models. The main objective of this study is to predict...

Purpose - This research explores the relationship between factors that play a crucial role in e-commerce. This research aimed to check the direct relationship between customer engagement, innovation, and behavior of consumers towards phygital products on patronage intention. Furthermore, this...

Open datasets serve as facilitators for researchers to conduct research with ground truth data. Generally, datasets contain innovation and knowledge in the domains that could be transferred between homogeneous datasets and have become feasible using machine learning models with the advent of...

This paper develops a large-scale algorithm‑based application to improve the match quality in the labor market. We use comprehensive administrative data on employment biographies in Germany to predict job match quality in terms of job stability and wages. The models are estimated with both...

The prevalence of digital ecosystems and platforms underscores the need for a deeper understanding of the factors that influence performance variations within these platforms. This study introduced a multidimensional model to examine the platform ecosystem characteristics that affect performance...
