PAHs, OCPs and PCBs in sediments from three catchments in Durban, South Africa
(NISC, 2018)Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were analysed from sediment samples collected in 2012 from rivers, surface runoff canals and estuaries in three ... -
Pairs trading on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange
(Taylor & Francis, 2013)Pairs trading strategies aim to profit from temporary deviations in some underlying relationship between the prices of two stocks. The trader takes appropriate long and short positions in the two stocks and waits for their ... -
Pairwise networks for feature ranking of a geomagnetic storm model
(South African Institute of Computer Scientists and Information Technologists, 2020)Feedforward neural networks provide the basis for complex regression models that produce accurate predictions in a variety of applications. However, they generally do not explicitly provide any information about the utility ... -
A pairwise unit-root-test based approach to investigating convergence of household debt in South Africa and the United States
(Virtus Interpress, 2015)The purpose of this paper was to test convergence of household debts in the United States and South Africa taking a pairwise unit root tests based approaches into account. Substantial number of studies dealt with convergence ... -
