The overall objective of this study is to explore the  practice and challenges of villagization; in the selected woredas of the Assosa zone  Beninshangul Gumuz regional state. To achieve goals of the survey study mixed research method was employed. Generally. the Sample size of 168 sample households were determined by using S = X2NP(1-P) ÷ d2 (N-1) + X2P (1-P), The research employed exploratory research design on the challenges and implementation of the program, and it applied mainly qualitative methods. On the basis and types of data gathered and the instrument used, both quantitative and qualitative techniques of data analysis or binary logistic regression supported by SPSS was employed. The only good thing about this life was farming since people had fertile lands. But, when villagization was implemented the lives of the villagers improved because they started to have better access to social services. The study showed that villagization was implemented voluntarily and based on the consent of the local people. However, it is possible to conclude that villagization has significantly improved the lives of the villagers by bringing positive changes that did not exist before. people.

Logistic regression is often used for the classification of a binary categorical dependent variable using various types of covariates (continuous or categorical). Imbalanced data will lead to biased parameter estimates and classification performance of the logistic regression model. Imbalanced data occurs when the number of cases in one category of the binary dependent variable is very much smaller than the other category. This simulation study investigates the effect of imbalanced data measured by imbalanced ratio on the parameter estimate of the binary logistic regression with a categorical covariate. Datasets were simulated with controlled different percentages of imbalance ratio (IR), from 1% to 50%, and for various sample sizes. The simulated datasets were then modeled using binary logistic regression. The bias in the estimates was measured using MSE (Mean Square Error). The simulation results provided evidence that the effect of imbalance ratio on the parameter estimate of the covariate decreased as sample size increased. The bias of the estimates depended on sample size whereby for sample size 100, 500, 1000 – 2000 and 2500 – 3500, the estimates were biased for IR below 30%, 10%, 5% and 2% respectively. Results also showed that parameter estimates were all biased at IR 1% for all sample size. An application using a real dataset supported the simulation results.

One of the key problems arises in binary logistic regression model is that explanatory variables being considered for the logistic regression model are highly correlated among themselves. Multicollinearity will cause unstable estimates and inaccurate variances that affects confidence intervals and hypothesis tests. Aim of this was to discuss some diagnostic measurements to detect multicollinearity namely tolerance, Variance Inflation Factor (VIF), condition index and variance proportions. The adapted diagnostics are illustrated with data based on a study of road accidents. Secondary data used from 2014 to 2016 in this study were acquired from the Traffic Police headquarters, Colombo in Sri Lanka. The response variable is accident severity that consists of two levels particularly grievous and non-grievous. Multicolinearity is identified by correlation matrix, tolerance and VIF values and confirmed by condition index and variance proportions. The range of solutions available for logistic regression such as increasing sample size, dropping one of the correlated variables and combining variables into an index. It is safely concluded that without increasing sample size, to omit one of the correlated variables can reduce multicollinearity considerably.

Θέμα της διατριβής με τίτλο «Μέθοδοι Πρόβλεψης Εκλογικών Αποτελεσμάτων. Συγκριτική Μελέτη Εργαλείων του Διαδικτύου» είναι η μελέτη των υφιστάμενων μεθόδων ανάλυσης πρόβλεψης των εκλογικών αποτελεσμάτων. Η εργασία έχει ως στόχο την συγκριτική μελέτη των μεθόδων που εφαρμόζονται στην εκλογική έρευνα για την ανάλυση της συμπεριφοράς των ψηφοφόρων και συγκεκριμένα την πρόβλεψη της εκλογικής τους στάσης. Η μελέτη επικεντρώνεται στις τρεις σημαντικότερες μεθόδους πρόβλεψης εκλογικού αποτελέσματος, που έχουν χρησιμοποιηθεί κατά τα τελευταία χρόνια στην Ελλάδα και επεκτείνεται στην ανάλυση μιας νέας καινοτόμου μεθόδου όπως προκύπτει από την ανάλυση των δεδομένων του Ηλεκτρονικού Συμβούλου Ψήφου (helpmevote): 1) τη δημοσκόπηση εξόδου (Exit Poll), 2) τη δημοσκόπηση πρόθεσης ψήφου με στάθμιση των δεδομένων, 3) την ανάλυση χρονοσειρών σε σχέση με την πρόθεση ψήφου για την εκτίμηση της εκλογικής επιρροής των κομμάτων. Επιπρόσθετα, εκτός από την περιγραφή των κυριότερων τεχνικών, αναλύεται η αποτελεσματικότητα αυτών των μεθόδων, όσον αφορά την εγγύτητα των προβλέψεων τους ως προς τα πραγματικά εκλογικά αποτελέσματα. Ταυτόχρονα, διερευνώνται επί μέρους ζητήματα που δημιουργούν προβλήματα στην εγκυρότητα των μεθόδων, όπως η στάθμιση των δεδομένων, η αντιμετώπιση της αδιευκρίνιστης ψήφου και πολλά τεχνικά ζητήματα, που αφορούν την εφαρμογή των μεθόδων αυτών, ιδιαίτερα στο υφιστάμενο εκλογικό περιβάλλον της Ελλάδας, όπου τα τελευταία χρόνια παρατηρούνται δομικές μεταβολές στο κομματικό σύστημα, καθώς επίσης στην εκλογική συμπεριφορά των ψηφοφόρων και στη στάση των ερωτώμενων στις δημοσκοπήσεις, καθιστώντας τις έως τώρα χρησιμοποιούμενες μεθοδολογίες πρόβλεψης της ψήφου προβληματικές. Επιπρόσθετα, επιχειρείται η δημιουργία ενός αποτελεσματικότερου μοντέλου πρόβλεψης με τη χρήση εργαλείων του διαδικτύου και συγκεκριμένα τον ηλεκτρονικό σύμβουλο ψήφου. Στο πλαίσιο διεξαγωγής της έρευνας έγινε ανάλυση των δεδομένων από την εφαρμογή helpmevote στις περιφερειακές εκλογές του 2010. Στο πρώτο σκέλος της ανάλυσης διερευνώνται τρία κυρίως ερωτήματα: 1) o εντοπισμός ομάδων ψηφοφόρων οι οποίοι παρουσιάζουν παρόμοιες απόψεις με τους υποψηφίους της περιφέρειάς τους και η συσχέτιση των ομάδων αυτών με συγκεκριμένα θέματα και εκλογικές προτιμήσεις, 2) η πρόβλεψη της επιλογής ψήφου όσων δηλώνουν αναποφάσιστοι ή όσων αρνούνται να δηλώσουν πρόθεση ψήφου, με βάση το βαθμό ταύτισής τους με τα πρόσωπα, τα κόμματα και με τα θέματα, 3) το ποσοστό στο οποίο συμμετέχει ο παράγοντας θέματα, στην τελική επιλογή ψήφου και η δημιουργία μοντέλου πρόβλεψης στη βάση αυτών. Στο δεύτερο σκέλος της ανάλυσης επιχειρείται η κατασκευή γραμμικού μοντέλου με στόχο την πρόβλεψη της πρόθεσης ψήφου, χρησιμοποιώντας ως κύριες μεταβλητές την τοποθέτηση των ψηφοφόρων ως προς τα θέματα και τον βαθμό ταύτισής τους με τους υποψηφίους. Ως ανεξάρτητες μεταβλητές της συνάρτησης επιλέγονται η δηλωμένη πρόθεση ψήφου και σε αναζήτηση ενός εναλλακτικού μοντέλου η προβλεπόμενη πρόθεση ψήφου όπως προέκυψε από το πρώτο σκέλος της ανάλυσης. Ως μέθοδοι ανάλυσης προτείνονται η Discriminant Analysis, η Fuzzy Cluster Analysis, η ανάλυση κατά στοιβάδες (Stacked Data Analysis) και η Binary Logistic Regression.
