1 July 1998

Model trees, which are a type of decision tree with linear regression functions at the leaves, form the basis of a recent successful technique for predicting continuous numeric values. Expand

Gravity and the Noncommutative Residue for Manifolds with Boundary

Y. Wang
Mathematics, Physics
2 September 2006

We prove a Kastler–Kalau–Walze type theorem for the Dirac operator and the signature operator for 3,4-dimensional manifolds with boundary. As a corollary, we give two kinds of operator-theoretic… Expand

An evaluation of new criteria for CpG islands in the human genome as gene markers

Y. Wang, F. C. Leung
Computer Science, Biology

1 May 2004

MOTIVATION Recently, more stringent criteria for CpG islands have been introduced to exclude Alu repeats, thereby enabling a higher proportion of C pG islands associating with genes to be identified. Expand

The moderating effect of the business strategic orientation on eCommerce adoption: Evidence from UK family run SMEs

Y. Wang, P. Ahmed

1 March 2009

This study investigates eCommerce adoption in family run SMEs (small and medium sized enterprises). Specifically, the objectives of the study are twofold: (a) to examine environmental and organisational determinants of ecommerce adoption in the family business context; (b) to explore the moderating effect of business strategic orientation on the relationships between adoption determinants and adoption decision.
