Die Statistik als fachliche Disziplin muss sich in einem rasch wandelnden Umfeld behaupten, das durch den Aufstieg der Data Science, den Bedeutungszuwachs der künstlichen Intelligenz sowie neue Datenstrukturen charakterisiert wird. Wie kann sich die Statistik hier behaupten oder verlorenes...

Since the conceptualization of bounded rationality, management scholars started investigating how people-managers and entrepreneurs-really make decisions within (and for) organizations. The aim of this eBook is to deeply investigate trends that have flourished within this pivotal research area...

This paper exploits daily infrared images taken from satellites to track economic activity in advanced and emerging countries. We first develop a framework to read, clean, and exploit satellite images. Our algorithm uses the laws of physics (Planck's law) and machine learning to detect the heat...

Traffic jams are an important problem both on an individual and on a societal level and much research has been done on trying to explain their emergence. The mainstream approach to road traffic monitoring is based on crowdsourcing roaming GPS devices such as cars or cell phones. These systems...

Due to the advanced technology associated with Big Data, data availability and computing power, most banks or lending institutions are renewing their business models. Credit risk predictions, monitoring, model reliability and effective loan processing are key to decision-making and transparency....

In linear regression of Y on X(2 Rp) with parameters (2 Rp+1); statistical inference is unreliable when observations are obtained from gross-error model, F;G = (1??)F +G; instead of the assumed probability F;G is gross-error probability, 0 < < 1: When G is unit mass at (x; y); Residual's Inuence...

Organizations are increasingly introducing data science initiatives to support decision-making. However, the decision outcomes of data science initiatives are not always used or adopted by decision-makers, often due to uncertainty about the quality of data input. It is, therefore, not surprising...

Data science and big data analytics (DS &BDA) methodologies and tools are used extensively in supply chains and logistics (SC &L). However, the existing insights are scattered over different literature sources and there is a lack of a structured and unbiased review methodology to systematise DS...

The current Special Issue brought out the newest trends in Econophysics that have made use of the most recent available tools, such as Big Data. The emphasis of the reprint is on deciphering the effects of current world events, such as the repercussions of the recent war conflicts, the oil and...
