Demand-growth in support of structural change: evidence from Nigeria's formal manufacturing sector
(2023-12-31)An emerging literature on demand-led structural transformation and structuralist macroeconomics finds that demand-growth can positively complement industrial policy and drive structural transformation but there is no firm ... -
Leveraging accessible tourism development through mega-events, and the disability-attitude gap
(2023-12-30)Able-bodied, and increasingly people with disabilities, represent a key audience for mega-events; occasions that act as crucibles where social problems endemic to host destinations can be exposed and tackled through targeted ... -
Prognostic impact of hypercoagulability and impaired fibrinolysis in acute myocardial infarction
(2023-05-14)AIMS: Atherothrombotic events are influenced by systemic hypercoagulability and fibrinolytic activity. The present study evaluated thrombogenicity indices and their prognostic implications according to disease acuity. ... -
An efficient churn prediction model using gradient boosting machine and metaheuristic optimization
(2023-09-02)Customer churn remains a critical challenge in telecommunications, necessitating effective churn prediction (CP) methodologies. This paper introduces the Enhanced Gradient Boosting Model (EGBM), which uses a Support Vector ... -
