Economic Culture And Trading Behaviors In Information Markets, Khalid Nasser Alhayyan
Economic Culture And Trading Behaviors In Information Markets, Khalid Nasser Alhayyan
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
There are four main components for influencing traders' behaviors in an information market context: trader characteristics, organizational characteristics, market design, and external information. This dissertation focuses on investigating the impact of individual trader characteristics on trading behaviors. Two newly-developed constructs, highly relevant to information market contexts, were identified to increase our understanding about trading behaviors: trader's economic culture and trader independence. The theory of planned behavior is used as the theoretical basis to postulate hypotheses for empirical testing. Data collected from subjects through a series of web-based experiments shows that trader participation can be fostered through recruiting individuals who are …

Tagline: Information Extraction For Semi-Structured Text Elements In Medical Progress Notes, Dezon K. Finch
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Text analysis has become an important research activity in the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Statistical text mining and natural language processing have been shown to be very effective for extracting useful information from medical documents. However, neither of these techniques is effective at extracting the information stored in semi-structure text elements. A prototype system (TagLine) was developed as a method for extracting information from the semi-structured portions of text using machine learning. Features for the learning machine were suggested by prior work, as well as by examining the text, and selecting those attributes that help distinguish the various classes …
A Framework For Personalized Dynamic Cross-Selling In E-Commerce Retailing, Arun K. Timalsina
A Framework For Personalized Dynamic Cross-Selling In E-Commerce Retailing, Arun K. Timalsina
Wayne State University Dissertations
Cross-selling and product bundling are prevalent strategies in the retail sector. Instead of static bundling offers, i.e. giving the same offer to everyone, personalized dynamic cross-selling generates targeted bundle offers and can help maximize revenues and profits. In resolving the two basic problems of dynamic cross-selling, which involves selecting the right complementary products and optimizing the discount, the issue of computational complexity becomes central as the customer base and length of the product list grows. Traditional recommender systems are built upon simple collaborative filtering techniques, which exploit the informational cues gained from users in the form of product ratings and …
Modeling For Policy Change : A Feedback Perspective On Improving The Effectiveness Of Coastal And Marine Management, Donald David Robadue Jr.
Modeling For Policy Change : A Feedback Perspective On Improving The Effectiveness Of Coastal And Marine Management, Donald David Robadue Jr.
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
Those advocating for effective management of the use of coastal areas and ecosystems have long aspired for an approach to governance that includes information systems with the capability to predict the end results of various courses of action, monitor the impacts of decisions and compare results with those predicted by computer models in order to suggest alterations in the actions needed if the goals are not being achieved. This dissertation draws on system dynamics modeling, content analysis and professional experience to explore four decades of experience in the United States as well as international cases to reveal lessons and strategies …
