Hunting With Wolves

This practical guide in Eviews is aimed at practitioners and students in business, economics, econometrics, and finance. It uses a step-by-step approach to equip readers with a toolkit that enables them to make the most of this widely used econometric analysis software. Statistical and econometrics concepts are explained visually with examples, problems, and solutions.Developed by economists, the Eviews statistical software package is used most commonly for time-series oriented econometric analysis. It allows users to quickly develop statistical relations from data and then use those relations to forecast future values of the data. The package provides convenient ways to enter or upload data series, create new series from existing ones, display and print series, carry out statistical analyses of relationships among series, and manipulate results and output. This highly hands-on resource includes more than 200 illustrative graphs and tables and tutorials throughout. Abdulkader Alja

This book illustrates and explains the key concepts of business data analytics from scratch, tackling the day-to-day challenges of a business data analyst. It provides you with all the professional tools you need to predict online shop sales, to conduct A/B tests on marketing campaigns, to generate automated reports with PowerPoint, to extract datasets from Wikipedia, and to create interactive analytics Web apps. Alongside these practical projects, this book provides hands-on coding exercises, case studies, the essential programming tools and the CRISP-DM framework which you'll need to kickstart your career in business data analytics.The different chapters prioritize practical understanding over mathematical theory, using realistic business data and challenges of the Junglivet Whisky Company to intuitively grasp key concepts and ideas. Designed for beginners and intermediates, this book guides you from business data analytics fundamentals to advanced techniques, covering a large number

This book explores the possibility of building the resilience of the UNESCO cultural landscapes, both using theoretical conceptions and practical strategies and actions. Two case studies have been selected, one in Italy and one in China, which have then been explored for the first time in such a comparative way. Different notions of landscape, as well as the driving force of changes affecting these landscapes, are examined and compared.Moreover, the perceptions of the local communities regarding these landscapes are examined, using online questionnaires with over 400 participants. This research highlights the need for an integrated management system, building stronger rural communities able to manage change and continuity. Five pillars to build the resilience of these landscapes have been provided, with schemes and figures, requiring a people-centered approach in their management.This book demonstrates strong connections between identity and landscape resilience, especially in inlandar

This book describes in detail a research project dedicated to liquid-particle flow using ultrasound techniques. The project consists of theoretical, experimental, data science, finite element modeling, mechanical design and project management components. The objective of the project was to develop the ultrasonic methodology for measurement and characterization of liquid flow containing solid particles, in online (real-time) measurement conditions. The project consists of primary and complementary studies. The primary studies comprise development of the ultrasonic methodology for the simultaneous measurement of the average particle concentration and flow speed parameters. The developed methodology is based on the ultrasonic attenuation spectroscopy and the sound speed measurement methods, supported by data science programs. The complementary studies include acoustic streaming, designing a small-scale rotational test cell with an annular flow channel, testing it for various applications
