20 Years of Nordic tourism economics research: a review and future research agenda
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The number of economics-related articles in the Scandinavian Journal of Hospitality and Tourism (SJHT) has recently increased considerably. Despite this increase, the research efforts of Nordic economists on tourism issues ... -
A Bayesian framework based on a Gaussian mixture model and radial-basis-function Fisher discriminant analysis (BayGmmKda V1.1) for spatial prediction of floods
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In this study, a probabilistic model,named as BayGmmKda, is proposed for flood susceptibility assessment in a study area in central Vietnam. The new model is a Bayesian framework constructed by a combination of a Gaussian ... -
A four-dimensional time-space trend model to be applied in the reconstruction of former sea levels and ice-front recession
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 1997)The model is represented by a four-dimensional trend function giving the elevation of the sea level (Z) above the present one as a function of locality co-ordinates (x and y) and time co-ordinate (t). The function and an ... -
A Hybrid GIS Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Method for Flood Susceptibility Mapping at Shangyou, China
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Soil salinity caused by climate change associated with rising sea level is considered as one of the most severe natural hazards that has a negative effect on agricultural activities in the coastal areas in most tropical ... -
A Novel Ensemble Classifier of Rotation Forest and Naïve Bayer for Landslide Susceptibility Assessment at the Luc Yen District, Yen Bai Province (Viet Nam) Using GIS
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The objective of this study is to attempt a new soft computing approach for assessment of landslide susceptibility in the Luc Yen district, Yen Bai province (Viet Nam) using a novel classifier ensemble model of Naïve Bayes ... -
A Novel Hybrid Approach Based on Instance Based Learning Classifier and Rotation Forest Ensemble for Spatial Prediction of Rainfall-Induced Shallow Landslides Using GIS
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)This study proposes a novel hybrid machine learning approach for modeling of rainfall-induced shallow landslides. The proposed approach is a combination of an instance-based learning algorithm (k-NN) and Rotation Forest ... -
A Novel Intelligence Approach of a Sequential Minimal Optimization-Based Support Vector Machine for Landslide Susceptibility Mapping
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The main objective of this study is to propose a novel hybrid model of a sequential minimal optimization and support vector machine (SMOSVM) for accurate landslide susceptibility mapping. For this task, one of the landslide ... -
A review of remote sensing approaches for monitoring blue carbon ecosystems: Mangroves, seagrasses and salt marshes during 2010 - 2018
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Blue carbon (BC) ecosystems are an important coastal resource, as they provide a range of goods and services to the environment. They play a vital role in the global carbon cycle by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and ... -
A Semi-empirical Approach Based on Genetic Programming for the Study of Biophysical Controls on Diameter-Growth of Fagus orientalis in Northern Iran
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This paper examines the possible ecological controls on the diameter increment of oriental beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) in a high altitude forest in northern Iran. The main objectives of the study are computer-generated ... -
Achieving agility and quality in product development -an empirical study of hardware startups
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Context: Startups aim at scaling their business, often by developing innovative products with limited hu- man and financial resources. The development of software products in the startup context is known as opportunistic, ... -
Analysis of filtering techniques for investigating landslide-induced topographic changes in the Oetz Valley (Tyrol, Austria)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Landslides endanger settlements and infrastructure in mountain areas across the world. Monitoring of landslides is therefore essential in order to understand and possibly predict their behavior and potential danger. ... -
Analysis of Outbreak and Global Impacts of the COVID-19
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Corona viruses are a large family of viruses that are not only restricted to causing illness inhumans but also affect animals such as camels, cattle, cats, and bats, thus affecting a large group ofliving species. The ... -
Application of Three Metaheuristic Techniques in Simulation of Concrete Slump
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Slump is a workability-related characteristic of concrete mixture. This paper investigates the efficiency of a novel optimizer, namely ant lion optimization (ALO), for fine-tuning of a neural network (NN) in the field of ... -
Assessing different measures of fire risk for Cultural World Heritage Sites
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)This study aims to assess whether two publicly available sources of fire threats to 346 Cultural World Heritage Sites across Europe substitute or complement each other. By doing so, a novel measure based on information ... -
