Fast technological changes and constant growth of knowledge in many areas have led to an increasing importance of different approach to education. Efficient education is the foundation of modern society and it has the most important role in preparing students for a very flexible labour market....

The objective of the article is to develop and test in practice a mechanism for constructing AI/ML-based predictions, adapted for use in the system of government socio-economic administration in Ukraine. Research design is represented by several methods like qualitative analysis in order to...

Purpose of the article: The paper is focused on the forecast of stock markets of the Central European countries, known as V4, by means of soft computing. The tested model is constructed by a combination of fuzzy logic and artificial neural networks. A total of four SAX, PX, BUX, WIG stock...

Financial indicators are the most used variables in measuring the business performance of companies, signaling about the financial position, comprehensive income, and other significant reporting aspects. In a competitive environment, the performance measurement model allows performing...

Economists typically make simplifying assumptions to make the solution and estimation of their highly complex models feasible. These simplifications include approximating the true nonlinear dynamics of the model, disregarding aggregate uncertainty or assuming that all agents are identical. While...

Central bank intervention in the form of quantitative easing (QE) during times of low interest rates is a controversial topic. This paper introduces a novel approach to study the effectiveness of such unconventional measures. Using U.S. data on six key financial and macroeconomic variables...

The paper contributes to the rare literature modeling term structure of crude oil markets. We explain term structure of crude oil prices using dynamic Nelson-Siegel model, and propose to forecast them with the generalized regression framework based on neural networks. The newly proposed...

In this paper the relatively new technique of neural nets is integrated in a traditional model of portfolio choice. On the basis of Arrow’s State Preference Model the investment decision depends on the expectation building process which consists of two components. The individual information...

This paper aims to forecast the Market Risk premium (MRP) in the US stock market by applying machine learning techniques, namely the Multilayer Perceptron Network (MLP), the Elman Network (EN) and the Higher Order Neural Network (HONN). Furthermore, Univariate ARMA and Exponential Smoothing...
