Die internationale Beachtung der Forschungsergebnisse in der Wirtschaftsinformatik hat in den letzten Jahren an Bedeutung gewonnen. Dabei wird dem kritischen Diskurs ein wachsender Stellenwert eingeräumt. Hier gilt es, den wissenschaftlichen Nachwuchs in der Konzeption und Durchführung der...

The idea behind the methodology proposed in this paper is to show the utilities that it can offer, a software tool to make recommendations to the banking users when making a claim against a bad practice from their banks or wish to make an inquiry in order to ascertain the chances of a favorable...

Linear fractional stable motion is a type of a stochastic integral driven by symmetric alpha-stable L´evy motion. The integral could be considered as a non-Gaussian analogue of the fractional Brownian motion. The present paper discusses R package rlfsm created for numerical procedures with the...

Neben einer theoretischen Analyse ausgewählter klassischer und moderner Performancemaße präsentieren wir in diesem Papier eine speziell zum Zweck der Performanceanalyse entwickelte Erweiterung des Funktionsumfanges von MS-Excel. Der vorgestellte VBA-Quellcode ermöglicht es, die beschriebenen...

This paper addresses the steep learning curve in Machine Learning faced by noncomputer scientists, particularly social scientists, stemming from the absence of a primer on its fundamental principles. I adopt a pedagogical strategy inspired by the adage "once you understand OLS, you can work your...

Until recently, theorists considering the evolution of human cooperation have paid little attention to institutional punishment, a defining feature of large-scale human societies. Compared to individually-administered punishment, institutional punishment offers a unique potential advantage: the...

Multimodal empirical distributions arise in many fields like Astrophysics, Bioinformatics, Climatology and Economics due to the heterogeneity of the underlying populations. Mixture processes are a popular tool for accurate approximation of such distributions and implied mode detection. Using...

A stable government is by definition not dominated by any other government. However, it may happen that all governments are dominated. In graph-theoretic terms this means that the dominance graph does not possess a source. In this paper we are able to deal with this case by a clever combination...

In this paper discrete wavelet filtering techniques are applied to decompose macroeconomic data so that they can be simultaneously analyzed in both the time and frequency domains. The MODWT (Maximal Overlap Discrete Wavelet Transform) is applied to U.S. quarterly GDP data from 1947–2012 to...
