Subject:
banking; branches; branching; market structure; research policy
Abstract:
... We investigate the relationship between deposit growth and branch deposit competitiveness. We introduce a new measure of competitiveness focused at the branch level that utilizes granular product data. We find more competitive branches have higher rates of deposit growth that vary across product types and local market structures. The new measure of competitiveness at the branch level is intended t ...

Abstract:
... Lunar crater detection plays an important role in lunar exploration, while machine learning (ML) exhibits promising advantages in the field. However, previous ML works almost all used a single type of lunar map, such as an elevation map (DEM) or orthographic projection map (WAC), to extract crater features; the two types of images have individual limitations on reflecting the crater features, whic ...

In order to reach sustainability, the prevailing unsustainable regime must be destabilized while more sustainable alternatives are promoted to create a new regime. An unsustainable regime should not have a legal ...

Abstract:
... The semantic segmentation of remote sensing images requires distinguishing local regions of different classes and exploiting a uniform global representation of the same-class instances. Such requirements make it necessary for the segmentation methods to extract discriminative local features between different classes and to explore representative features for all instances of a given class. While c ...

It is commonly cultivated as a specialty ornamental crop in Florida and worldwide for both the cut flower industry and landscape horticulture. Ageratum is easy to grow and can produce continuous blooms for most of the year and is one of the few annuals that tolerates ...

Both mutant alleles were found to represent point mutations at the Cl₁ locu ...

Abstract:
... Very little is known about how growth is distributed within thalli of fruticose lichens. To determine whether mature, non-apical regions of the beard lichen Ramalina usnea elongate, segments of the broadest axes were marked with thread and measured; thalli were then returned to the field to resume growth for about one year. Growth was evident in all segments measured and increments were roughly pr ...

Abstract:
... The iterative synthetic protocols used for dendrimer construction were developed based on the desire to easily craft highly branched macromolecules with ideally an exact mass and tailored functionality. Inspired by arboreal design and precursors of the utilitarian macromolecules known as dendrimers today, our first examples employed predesigned, 1 → 3 or 1 → (1 + 2) C-branched, building blocks. Ph ...

Abstract:
... The present study exploited integrated genomics-assisted breeding strategy for genetic dissection of complex branch number quantitative trait in chickpea. Candidate gene-based association analysis in a branch number association panel was performed by utilizing the genotyping data of 401 SNP allelic variants mined from 27 known cloned branch number gene orthologs of chickpea. The genome-wide associ ...

Abstract:
... Pterisanthes (Vitaceae) is a genus of c. 20 species of scandent climbers endemic to Southeast Asia with unusual lamellate inflorescences. Molecular phylogenetic analysis supports its relationship in the well‐supported Vitis–Ampelocissus–Nothocissus–Pterisanthes clade (i.e. the Ampelocissus–Vitis clade). Shoot tips and floral buds were collected from wild and greenhouse‐grown P. eriopoda at differe ...

Abstract:
... A two-unit experimental sweet cherry harvester was modified with a goal to improve its harvest performance by changing each unit's rapid impact fruit removal mechanism to a continuous impact (shaking) mechanism. During harvest, an end effector (rapid impactor) was placed at selected actuation points on fruiting scaffold branches to transfer vibrational energy for fruit release. Removed fruit was c ...
