Priority Levels and Heuristic Rules in the Structural Recognition of Mathematical Formulae

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Informatics, 2010
In the paper an algorithm for an automatic recognition of the structure of mathematical formulae saved in a graphical form has been presented. The described method is based on 2D graph grammars, although the other approaches were mentioned. Moreover, the heuristic rules used during the simplification of the initial data structure, the example graph ...

Is Precision Agriculture Technology Adoption Persistently Overestimated?

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Precision agriculture is sometimes assumed to diffuse steadily over time, and industry planning frequently extrapolates early adoption trends forward. This study evaluates the accuracy of such expectations by comparing agricultural input dealers' forecasts of future service offerings with the actual levels of offerings that dealerships ...

Protection Motivation Theory and Farmers' Participation in Futures Markets: Evidence From Germany

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines why German farmers show limited adoption of commodity futures contracts despite substantial price volatility, applying Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) to understand the cognitive processes driving participation decisions in futures markets. Survey data from 303 German farmers collected in 2024 were analyzed using Partial
