Purpose This paper aims to assure the selection of the most suitable very light business aircraft which is preferred by the passengers based on effectiveness and aesthetic comfort. The proposed approach to determine the light business jet aircraft would provide long-range, less travel time, cozy seating arrangements, on-board lavatory facility, other aesthetic ambiance (audio systems, light systems and temperature-noise control) and appliances at reasonable flight cost. Design/methodology/approach The selection of a light business jet is obtained through multi-criteria decision-making based on the speed limit ranges from 0.57 to 0.70 Mach number and the distance traveled up to 3,000 km with the best aesthetic comfort level. To validate the approach, case studies of five aircrafts such as Honda Jet HA 420, Cessna Citation jet M2, Embraer Phenom 100, Eclipse 550 and Cessna Citation Mustang are performed. To obtain the best suitable business jet, criteria importance through intercriteria correlation (CRITIC) and technique for order performance by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) is used to determine the rankings of listed aircraft. Findings The study concludes that the Cessna Citation jet M2 is chosen as the best Very Light Jet (VLJ) on the basis of speed, range, weight, cost, aesthetic and comfort. Based on the sensitivity, mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and symmetric mean absolute percentage error analysis (sMAPE), the most and least sensitive criteria for a business jet came out to be cost and speed, respectively. Originality/value A real case study for several parameters of five different jets such as Honda Jet HA 420, Cessna Citation jet M2, Embraer Phenom 100, Eclipse 550 and Cessna Citation Mustang are shown in this paper. Based on the case study numerical values are assigned with speed, range, weight, cost, aesthetic and comfort which are applied with CRITIC and TOPSIS to obtain the most suitable business jet among the five mentioned jets which are rarely found in the literature.

According to the data on the share of employees in the category Hotels and similar accommodation in the total employees (16.6% in 2015), it can be concluded that this percentage share is quite significant. In this paper the number of employees in tourism (in the category Hotels and similar accommodation) is modelled and predicted on the basis of monthly data from the period 2005 to 2015, collected from the First Release of the Croatian Bureau of Statistics. Taking into consideration the seasonal character of the phenomenon being analysed, taking into account the criteria of reliability of demonstrated forecasts, in this study following methods were used: the seasonal naive models, Holt - Winters Model trend seasonality exponential smoothing and Holt- Winters no seasonal exponential smoothing model. All obtained results were compared by forecasting error Mean Absolute Percentage error (MAPE). The obtained results indicate that forecasting methods which take into account the seasonal character of the phenomenon result in smaller forecasting error, and more reliable estimate, compared to models which don´t take into account the character of the phenomenon being analysed.


Wind energy is a promising alternativefor renewable source of energy pursued world-wide to reduce carbon emissions for a green future. The prediction of wind speed is a challenging subject and plays an instrumental role in development of wind power systems (particularly grid connected renewable energy systems where predicting wind speed facilitates manipulation of the load on the grid). Modern machine learning techniques including neural networks have been widely utilized for this purpose. Literature indicates availability of several models for estimation of the wind speed one hour ahead and the hourly wind speed data profile one day ahead. This paper considers the prediction of wind energy as a univariate time series (UVT) prediction problem and employs major prediction algorithms including the K-Nearest Neighbors (kNN), Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Regression (SVR), Holt-Winter and ARIMA method. Forecasting a univariate time series depends only on past wind speed data values, rather than use of external data attributes like wind direction or weather forecast for prediction algorithm. In the present study (as a case-study), 13 years of hourly average wind speed data (of the period 1970-1982) of Yanbu, Saudi Arabia has been utilized to evaluate the performance of selected algorithms. Yanbu is an industrial city that plays a major role in the economy of Saudi Arabia. The findings showed that SVR, RF and ARIMA methods exhibit a better forecastingperformance in relation to four evaluation parameters of Mean Absolute Percentage Error(MAPE),Symmetric Mean Absolute Percentage Error (sMAPE),Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Mean Absolute Scaled Error (MASE).

Automatic Teller Machine (ATM) are still largely used to dispense cash to the customers. ATM cash replenishment is a process of refilling ATM machine with a specific amount of cash. Due to vacillating users demands and seasonal patterns, it is a very challenging problem for the financial institutions to keep the optimal amount of cash for each ATM. In this paper, we present a time series model based on Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) technique called Time Series ARIMA Model for ATM (TASM4ATM). This study used ATM back-end refilling historical data from 6 different financial organizations in Pakistan. There are 2040 distinct ATMs and 18 month of replenishment data from these ATMs are used to train the proposed model. The model is compared with the state-of- the-art models like Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and Amazon’s DeepAR model. Two approaches are used for forecasting (i) Single ATM and (ii) clusters of ATMs (In which ATMs are clustered with similar cash-demands). The Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) and Symmetric Mean Absolute Percentage Error (SMAPE) are used to evaluate the models. The suggested model produces far better forecasting as compared to the models in comparison and produced an average of 7.86/7.99 values for MAPE/SMAPE errors on individual ATMs and average of 6.57/6.64 values for MAPE/SMAPE errors on clusters of ATMs.

AbstractThe coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic continues as of March 26 and spread to Europe on approximately February 24. A report from April 29 revealed 1.26 million confirmed cases and 125 928 deaths in Europe. This study proposed a novel deep neural network framework, COVID-19Net, which parallelly combines a convolutional neural network (CNN) and bidirectional gated recurrent units (GRUs). Three European countries with severe outbreaks were studied—Germany, Italy, and Spain—to extract spatiotemporal feature and predict the number of confirmed cases. The prediction results acquired from COVID-19Net were compared to those obtained using a CNN, GRU, and CNN-GRU. The mean absolute error, mean absolute percentage error, and root mean square error, which are commonly used model assessment indices, were used to compare the accuracy of the models. The results verified that COVID-19Net was notably more accurate than the other models. The mean absolute percentage error generated by COVID-19Net was 1.447 for Germany, 1.801 for Italy, and 2.828 for Spain, which were considerably lower than those of the other models. This indicated that the proposed framework can accurately predict the accumulated number of confirmed cases in the three countries and serve as a crucial reference for devising public health strategies.

Emas, Tembaga dan Minyak merupakan jenis komoditas yang banyak diincar oleh para investor untuk menanamkan modal dengan cara melakukan investasi pada jenis komoditas tersebut. Prediksi harga komoditas sangat bermanfaat bagi investor untuk melihat prospek investasi komoditas pada suatu perusahaan di masa yang akan datang. Harga komoditas memiliki karakteristik data yang tidak stabil atau sering disebut volatilitas. Untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut, dilakukan peramalan dengan metode ARIMA dan ARIMA-GARCH. Dipilih dua metode tersebut karena dua metode ini cocok untuk meramalkan sesuatu yang memiliki data history yang kuat. Metode ARIMA ARCH-GARCH lebih cocok digunakan untuk data-data yang memliki volatilitas yang tinggi atau terdapat heteroskedastisitas pada residual data, sehingga hasil prediksi lebih akurat. Hal ini dibuktikan dengan nilai AIC lebih kecil dari pada hanya menggunakan metode ARIMA. Model terbaik untuk komoditas Emas adalah ARIMA(0,1,1) – GARCH(1,1) sedangkan komoditas tembaga memiliki model terbaik yaitu ARIMA(2,1,2) – GARCH(1,1) dan komoditas minyak yaitu ARIMA(1,1,1) – GARCH(0,1). Nilai MAPE (Mean Absolute Percentage Error) untuk masing-masing komoditas berturut-turut adalah 1,113; 0,542 dan 1,158 untuk Emas, Tembaga dan Minyak.
