Site selection is one of the most important decision making processes for firms since, if done correctly, it provides access to the best customers and the greatest market potential. In contrast, poor location choices are costly and difficult to reverse.This paper deals with the single branch site selection problem in the banking context. Due to the...

Liquidity management is one of the main concerns of the banking sector since it provides control in key areas such as treasury management, working capital financing and business valuation. Under the assumption that branch efficiency makes a fundamental contribution towards the effective performance of the global banking institution, this paper prov...

This paper deals with cash management for bank branches, under the assumption that branches have a role to play in the improvement of global bank institution performance. In the current scenario of unprecedented pressure amongst banks to keep costs under control, our contribution is the design of a sound and low-cost algorithm to optimize branch ca...

http://www.springerplus.com/mostviewed/30days Bank liquidity management has become a major issue during the financial crisis as liquidity shortages have intensified and have put pressure on banks to diversity and improve their liquidity sources. While a significant strand of the literature concentrates on wholesale liquidity generation and on the...

The quality of the input data is amongst the decisive factors affecting the speed and effectiveness of recurrent neural network (RNN) learning. We present here a novel methodology to select optimal training data (those with the highest learning capacity) by approaching the problem from a decision making point of view. The key idea, which underpins...

This paper presents a mathematical/Artificial Intelligence (AI) model for the prediction of price outcomes in markets with the presence of lobbying, whose outputs are pricing trends that aggregate the opinions of lobbies on future prices. Our proposal succeeds in unraveling this complex real-world problem by reducing the solution to straightforward...

ANNs succeed in several tasks for real scenarios due to their high learning abilities. This paper focuses on theoretical aspects of ANNs to enhance the capacity of implementing those modifications that make ANNs absorb the defining features of each scenario. This work may be also encompassed within the trend devoted to providing mathematical explan...

Standard methodologies for restructuring physical networks rely on Geographic Information Systems (GIS) which strongly depend on local demographic specifications. The absence of a universal definition of demography makes its use for cross-border purposes much more difficult. This paper presents a Decision Making Model (DMM) for re-structuring netwo...

The maintenance of cash levels under certain security thresholds is key for the health of the banking sector. In this paper, the monitoring process of branch network cash levels is performed using a single intelligent system which should provide an alert when there are cash shortages at any point of the network. Such an integral solution would prov...

Some widely-accepted practices on banking ATM networks may be negatively affecting an efficient liquidity management. This paper analyses ATM cash management in light of empirical evidence which suggests that banking ATMs tend to be overloaded beyond the customer’s needs. This, in turn, results in high opportunity costs. While this is not perceived...

Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) has become a problem of a great magnitude as it is a leading cause of death for women according to the World Health Organization. This paper presents a novel Early Warning System (EWS) for locating and protecting potential victims of IPV in which the victims' environment plays a central role. Specifically, based on M...

Full-text view-only version: https://rdcu.be/2rxy Branch size strongly depends on branch cash holdings. However, while any exhaustive study into branch cash holdings must include demographics around branches, there are major variations when defining demographics according to “local” parameters, as opposed to “internationally accepted” ones.This wi...

Bank liquidity management has become one of the main concerns of a bank during the financial crisis as liquidity shortages have put pressure on banks to diversity and improve their liquidity sources. Then, any programme of optimization of activities involving liquidity management are relevant issues as any significant improvement in cash management...

In several occasions the dynamic behaviour of a specific economic variable is influenced by the optimal behaviour of agents that participate in the Economy. This economic variable denominated state variable is observed by each agent in a different way and it offers different answers for each one of them in the optimal process relative to decision m...

En numerosas ocasiones el comportamiento dinámico de una determinada variable económica se ve influenciado por la conducta optimizadora de los agentes que intervienen en la economía. Esta variable económica que denominaremos variable de estado se percibe de manera distinta por cada uno de los agentes, y en el proceso optimizador inherente a la toma...

A classical theorem of Mac Lane and Whitehead states that the homotopy type of a topological space with trivial homotopy at dimensions 3 and greater can be reconstructed from its 711 and 712, and a cohomology class ks ~H~(rri, 7~). More recently, Moerdijk and Svensson suggested the possibility of using Bredon cohomology to extend this result to the...

A classical theorem of Mac Lane and Whitehead states that the homotopy type of a topological space with trivial homotopy at dimensions 3 and greater can be reconstructed from its π1 and π2, and a cohomology class k3 /gEH3(π1, π2). More recently, Moerdijk and Svensson suggested the possibility of using Bredon cohomology to extend this result to the...

In this paper we give a general method to obtain a closed model structure, in the sense of Quillen, on a category related to the category of simplicial groups by a suitable adjoint situation. Applying this method, categories of algebraic models of connected types such as those of crossed modules of groups (2-types), 2-crossed modules of groups (3-t...
