Abstract Mammography, or breast X-ray imaging, is the most widely used imaging modality to detect cancer and other diseases. Recent studies have shown that deep learning-based computer-assisted detection diagnosis (CADe/x) tools been developed support physicians improve accuracy of interpreting mammography. A number large-scale mammography datasets from different populations with various associated annotations clinical data introduced study potential methods in field radiology. With aim...
Purpose This article investigates the impact of growth share various government expenditure programmes in GDP on economic developing countries while taking into consideration major issue potential simultaneity. Findings Based data from World Bank and using two samples 28 economies, we find that per capita is dependent upon public health GDP, spending education population growth, total gross capital formation GDP. Practical implications Statistical results such empirical examination will...
ABSTRACT Mammography, or breast X-ray, is the most widely used imaging modality to detect cancer and other diseases. Recent studies have shown that deep learning-based computer-assisted detection diagnosis (CADe/x) tools been developed support physicians improve accuracy of interpreting mammography. However, published datasets mammography are either limited on sample size digitalized from screen-film (SFM), hindering development CADe/x which based full-field digital (FFDM). To overcome this...
Most of the existing chest X-ray datasets include labels from a list findings without specifying their locations on radiographs. This limits development machine learning algorithms for detection and localization abnormalities. In this work, we describe dataset more than 100,000 scans that were retrospectively collected two major hospitals in Vietnam. Out raw data, release 18,000 images manually annotated by total 17 experienced radiologists with 22 local rectangles surrounding abnormalities...
This paper empirically analyzes the determinants of rural poverty in developing countries. Using data from a sample 32 countries we are able to show that income redistribution favor poorest 10 percent population, improving productivity agricultural workers, raising economic and social status women, especially government policies aimed at reducing systemic discrimination against ethnic minorities, encouraging tourism where possible, programs designed assist irrigation croplands called for...
Purpose This paper aims to examine the impact of components human capital on extent poverty and income distribution in developing countries. Design/methodology/approach Data for all variables are from World Development Report , 2006 2007. The least‐squares estimation technique a multivariate linear regression is applied. It noted that introduction interaction terms between yields better statistical results, as pointed out economic development literature. Findings Based data Bank using sample...
In this brief, a simple control approach is proposed for the multichain systems based on switching algorithm of two sets steering laws. Global exponential convergence to any prescribed norm bound (epsi-convergence) guaranteed and rate explicitly given. This has distinctive feature that one inputs (driving input) free. plays key role in achieving realistic parking tasks. For design laws, method backstepping analyzed detail. Further, applied automatic systems. The corresponding system package...
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to estimate the determinants rural and national poverty, income distribution, agricultural growth in developing countries. Design/methodology/approach Data for all variables are from 2008 World Development Report. author applies least‐squares estimation technique a multivariate linear regression. Findings It found, different size samples, that: percentage population living below poverty line country dependent upon logarithm per capita purchasing power...
This paper investigates the relationship between money, prices, output, and exchange rate in Bangladesh during 1974–92 period. Several interesting conclusions can be derived from paper. First, inflationary process cannot explained exclusively by monetarist or structuralist explanation of inflation. Second, regardless monetary aggregate employed, policy exerts a significant unidirectional impact on real output. Third, inflation together account for portion fluctuations rate. Finally, it is...
Esfahani ( 1991 ) shows that the statistically significant correlation between export promotion and economic growth in semi-industrialized countries (SICs) has been mainly attributable to role of exports reducing import ‘shortages’, which have impeded output these countries. As a result, export-promotion policies as superior development strategy SICs play an important those cannot secure sufficient foreign aid or investment. also develops simultaneous equations model address simultaneity...
This paper examines the impact of investment climate indicators on gross capital formation in developing countries. Based data from World Bank Investment Climate Surveys for a sample thirty-six countries, we find that corruption constraint as measured by share senior managers ranked "corruption" major or very severe constraint, courts "courts and dispute resolution systems" tax administration loss sales those firms reporting crime such theft, vandalism arson previous year, management time...
Purpose The aim of this paper is to extend a theoretical model due Ljungqvist and data from sample 19 developing economies empirically test it. Design/methodology/approach Data for all variables are the 2005 Human Development Report 2006 World . author applies least‐squares estimation technique in multivariate linear regression. Findings Based on Bank United Nations Programme, uses finds that cross‐country variations income/consumption inequality may be explained by investment human capital...
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to empirically assess the effect factors contributing recovery from crisis in terms national GDP growth among G7, Asian7, and Latin American7 countries. Design/methodology/approach author uses a multivariate regression analysis determinants global financial recovery. Findings Based on data 21 developed developing emerging market economies found that good macroeconomic fundamentals together with more open policy, liberalization, depth, domestic...
This paper examines the impact of drivers economic growth in developing countries. We modify conventional neoclassical model to account for increase number people working relative total population and that value added per worker over time. Based on data from World Bank 1995-2010 period a sample thirty-eight economies we find rate capita GDP is linearly dependent technological progress, gross capital formation, initial level output capita, labour productivity growth, measured as worker, well...
Many iterative methods for solving optimization or feasibility problems have been invented, and often convergence of the iterates to some solution is proven. Under favourable conditions, one might additional bounds on distance iterate leading thus worst case estimates, i.e., how fast algorithm must converge. Exact estimates are typically hard come by. In this paper, we consider complementary problem finding best slow has converge, also study exact asymptotic rates convergence. Our...
This paper examines the determinants of infrastructure indicators in developing countries. Based on data from World Bank and using four samples economies, study applies least-squares estimation technique a multivariate linear regression finds that are linearly dependent upon share public expenditures pensions Gross Domestic Product, spending for education as percentage government expenditures, health GDP, saving civil service wages fraction spending. The also only private telecommunications...
This paper examines the impact of various determinants on gender gaps in human capital developing countries. We find that female primary completion is dependent per capita GDP growth, employment agriculture, industry, and services, interactions between growth industry services. are also able to show ratio girls boys’ enrollments secondary schools a function poverty rate, fraction population with access an improved water source, maternal mortality. In addition, we observe girls’ mortality...
Abstract Based on data from the World Bank and Global Competitiveness Report 2008-2009, this study uses a sample of 97 developing economies finds that institutions do affect development, unlike results previous studies by Mc Arthur Sachs (2001) (2003). The observation is coefficient estimate half explanatory variables does not have anticipated sign due to severe multicollinearity among them. Regression are more robust when interaction terms included. This empirical examination may assist...
