This study aims to evaluate the impact of factors representing the Board of Directors (BOD) and Audit Committee (AC) on financial information transparency (FIT) in a frontier market.FIT is measured through three indicators that reflect financial non-transparency: earnings aggressiveness (EA), earnings smoothing (ES) and loss avoidance (LA).Research
The aim of this manuscript is to introduce solutions to optimize economic dispatch of loads and combined emissions (CEED) in thermal generators.We use metaheuristics, such as particle swarm optimization (PSO), ant lion optimization (ALO), dragonfly algorithm (DA), and differential evolution (DE), which are normally used for comparative simulations,
Plant-associated fungi often drive plant invasion success by increasing host growth, disease resistance, and tolerance to environmental stress.A high abundance of Colletotrichum asymptomatically accumulated in the leaves of Ageratina adenophora.In this study, we aimed to clarify whether three genetically distinct endophytic Colletotrichum isolates
