Efficiency of Large Scale Manufacturing in Pakistan : A Production Frontier Approach [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper examines the efficiency of the large scale manufacturing sector of Pakistan using the stochastic production frontier approach. A stochastic production frontier is estimated for two periods1995-96 and 2000-01for 101 industries at the 5-digit ...

Decoding Structure‐Property Relationships in Anion Exchange Membranes via a Chemically Informed Dual‐Channel Graph Attention Network

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
SPARK decodes structure‐property relationships in anion exchange membranes (AEMs) via a chemically informed dual‐channel graph attention network (DEGAT) that explicitly captures microphase separation. It outputs five‐level grades for hydroxide conductivity and alkaline stability and highlights relevant key structural units, enabling robust pre ...

The Input Requirements of Conventional and Shariahcompliant Banking

open access: yesThe International Journal of Banking and Finance, 2010
Islamic banking activities are limited within the scope of shari’ah which is within the scope of socially responsible and ethical banking activities, different from that based on interest-based banking.

Measuring and explaining farm inefficiency in a panel data set of mixed farms [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper aims to estimate a translog stochastic frontier production function in the analysis of a panel of 150 mixed Catalan farms in the period 1989-1993, in order to attempt to measure and explain variation in technical inefficiency scores with a one-

Investigating Phase Separation in Genome Folding via Multiscale Computational Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Phase separation is emerging as a multiscale organizing principle of genome folding across scales, from nucleosomes and transcriptional condensates to chromatin domains and nuclear compartments. By integrating physics‐based simulations with data‐driven inference, computational modeling now links molecular interactions to nuclear architecture and points

FARMERS RESOURCE – USE AND TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY IN COWPEA PRODUCTION IN NIGERIA [PDF]

open access: yes
In Nigeria, the use of stochastic frontier to estimate farm level efficiency effects is still at the rudimentary level and is beginning to build up. Few studies have been undertaken but there is dearth need for more empirical studies on this important ...

Multi‐stage stochastic frontier analysis for simple networks

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research
AbstractWe develop a method for modelling multi‐stage production using stochastic frontier analysis. This approach is suitable for the analysis of costs or output where intermediate outputs become inputs into a subsequent stage of the production process, either within an organisation or in the form of a supply chain.

TopCas: Topology‐Gated Cas12a via DNA‐RNA Chimeric Circular crRNA for Amplification‐Free Nucleic Acid Detection and Conditional Gene Editing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The TopCas platform utilizes an engineered DNA‐RNA chimeric circular crRNA to establish topology‐gated control over CRISPR‐Cas12a activity, enabling target‐triggered self‐catalytic amplification (preamplification‐free). This system seamlessly integrates highly sensitive molecular diagnostics with conditionally controlled gene editing, demonstrating ...
