Market knowledge and new product performance: the mediating effects of new product performance
PublicationMarket knowledge is recognised as an important predictor of new product performance, which existing studies have proven. However, a missing link in this relationship is creativity, and specifically, as a natural process in product innovation. This study aims to examine a model that includes two mediating mechanisms between market knowledge scope and two new product outcomes, respectively: a new product’s competitive advantage and...

On adaptive covariance and spectrum estimation of locally stationary multivariate processes
PublicationWhen estimating the correlation/spectral structure of a locally stationary process, one has to make two important decisions. First, one should choose the so-called estimation bandwidth, inversely proportional to the effective width of the local analysis window, in the way that complies with the degree of signal nonstationarity. Too small bandwidth may result in an excessive estimation bias, while too large bandwidth may cause excessive...

Minimal and maximal solutions of differential equations with a singularmatrix.
PublicationPraca dotyczy zagadnień początkowych dla układów równań różniczkowych z macierzą osobliwą. Równania różniczkowo-algebraiczne są szczególnym przypadkiem takich zagadnień.Stosując metodę iteracji monotonicznych pokazano, że przy pewnych założeniach problem wyjściowy ma ekstremalne rozwiązania w pewnym sektorze.Teoretyczne rozważania zilustrowano przykładem.

Minimal transverse reinforcement of reinforced concrete members
PublicationW pierwszej części pracy omówiono zagadnienia dotyczące minimalnego zbrojenia na ścinanie elementów żelbetowych w kontekście norm europejskich oraz pozaeuropejskich. W drugiej części pracy dokonano analizy wyników badań eksperymentalnych dotyczących nośności elementów bez zbrojenia poprzecznego, które stanowią podstawę do weryfikacji zaleceń normowych w zakresie minimalnego zbrojenia na ścinanie.

Estimation of Average Speed of Road Vehicles by Sound Intensity Analysis
PublicationConstant monitoring of road traffic is important part of modern smart city systems. The proposed method estimates average speed of road vehicles in the observation period, using a passive acoustic vector sensor. Speed estimation based on sound intensity analysis is a novel approach to the described problem. Sound intensity in two orthogonal axes is measured with a sensor placed alongside the road. Position of the apparent sound...

A Selection of Starting Points for Iterative Position Estimation Algorithms Using Feedforward Neural Networks
PublicationThis article proposes the use of a feedforward neural network (FNN) to select the starting point for the first iteration in well-known iterative location estimation algorithms, with the research objective of finding the minimum size of a neural network that allows iterative position estimation algorithms to converge in an example positioning network. The selected algorithms for iterative position estimation, the structure of the...

Diversification of investment efficiency in selected economies
PublicationAn assessment of the effectiveness of investments is a key element of investment processes. In order to be comprehensive and exhaustive, it should go beyond the scope of the microeconomic assessment and take into account the macroeconomic calculation of effectiveness. The prerequisite for the effectiveness of investment decisions implemented by private companies is the maximization of the return on the investments. When attempting...
