On the Weighted Mixed Almost Unbiased Ridge Estimator in Stochastic Restricted Linear Regression by Chaolin Liu, Hu Yang, Jibo Wu

“…We introduce the weighted mixed almost unbiased ridge estimator (WMAURE) based on the weighted mixed estimator (WME) (Trenkler and Toutenburg 1990) and the almost unbiased ridge estimator (AURE) (Akdeniz and Erol 2003) in linear regression model. We discuss superiorities of the new estimator under the quadratic bias (QB) and the mean square error matrix (MSEM) criteria. …”

DIGITALIZATION OF ECONOMICS AND DEVELOPMENT BANKS: PROSPECTS FOR EVALUATION ON THE EXAMPLES OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION AND VEB.RF by S. S. Matveevskii, N. N. Agafonova

“…The experience of using digitalization indexes to assess the digitalization level of the economy has been summarized: it is advisable to use interval indexes that allow us to divide countries into groups according to the digitalization level. Using the linear regression model developed by the authors has made it possible to establish a direct statistical relationship between the I-Desi digitalization index and per capita Gross Domestic Product for a number of developed and developing countries: more developed countries carry out digitalization faster. …”

Modeling of River Sediment Estimation Using Artificial Neural Network Method (Case Study: Vanai River) by Dariush Abolfathi, Aghil Madadi, Sayyad Asghari

“…Evidence has shown that initially the MLP's neural network model had the best estimate with the lowest error rate (90.44) and then the RBF model (151.44) among the three models. The linear regression model has the highest error rate because only linear relationships between variables are considered.…”

Financial Accountability and Service Delivery in Kabale District, Uganda by Biryomumaisho Ferdison, Turyasingura John Bosco, moses Agaba, Vicent Miganda

“…At the bivariate level, a Pearson correlation matrix was conducted to ascertain the relationships between the predictor variables and the dependent variable. A linear regression model was used to fit the data. Research findings from the regression model show that funds disbursement (R=862), Auditing process (R=656 and record-keeping systems (R=899) have a positive significance on the service delivery of Kabale District local government. …”
