By applying d = 0 restriction, Eq. (14) reduces to LSTAR-LST-APGARCH-MLP and additional restriction on the asymmetry parameters (delta left( i right) = 2), leads the model further reduce to LSTAR-LST-GARCH-MLP.
The inclusion of 20-year HbA1c in the model further reduced the OR for WESDR vs. WDRS to 2.2 (95% CI 1.6 3.0).
As a result, the quadratic model was further reduced with insignificant model term excluded.
Adding in remoteness (Model 3) or area disadvantage (Model 4) further reduced the DIC by at least 7 units.
Moreover, an improved version of the optimal centralized control strategy OTR-O [23] istrategy OTR-Othis paper by considering the model prediction and customers' responsive behavior model to further reduce the amount of communication and improve the control performance.
Upon inspection of the model fit with these as the degrees of the respective polynomial effect functions, the term associated with humidity was found insignificant, and therefore was dropped from the model for further reduced AIC value and simplified model.
Terms whose removal from the model would further reduce the AIC value were dropped to simplify the model.
"The secondary market has deteriorated substantially, so we are modifying our business model and further reducing costs for this difficult environment".
Then, the HdBNM is combined with the Fast Multipole Method (FMM) based on the model to further reduce the computational scale.
