... The decision rule is as follows: taken in absolute terms, if the computed test statistic is greater that the critical (table) value, we reject the H 0 of a unit root, and, therefore, accept the H 1 of no unit root. [12,15,16] . Since we stopped at first differencing of the data in order to avert the problem of data mining, the integration test of NEXR shows inconclusive result. ...

... They remove the limitation of the traditional model of the absence of an asymmetric term in the GARCH model (Maghyereh et al., 2005). The EGARCH model use log-conditional variance, which incorporates the leverage effect in the exponential form and not quadratic (Ekong and Onye, 2017). More precisely, this study addresses the unanswered questions about the symmetric and asymmetric behaviour of the BRICS stock market. ...

... Human migration study is important for many research fields, such as climate change [13,58,10], urban planning [53,43,2,61], epidemic modeling [63,12,25], and cities building [64,6,22]. With the increasing availability of time to resolve big datasets containing digital traces of human activities at unprecedented scales and resolutions,data sources are as diverse as the information they provide, spanning from credit card transactions [48] and taxi or subway rides [78,85,28,39]. ...
