Two challenges need to be overcome to address these questions. The first challenge is determining the internal states based on behavior. To date, direct measures of the brain’s internal states have remained elusive26. Internal states are not measurable biological phenomena, such as temperature. Res...
Note that a multivariate time series e(t) is ‘white’ if it has no statistical dependence across time (that is, e(s) and e(t) are independent if s ≠ t) even though it can have arbitrary statistical dependence across channels (that is, ei(t) and ej(t) can be dependent at ...

4. Research methodology 4.1. Sample and data collection Our data collection involved a random selection of 240 Italian small and medium hotels, choosing for statistical power a confidence level of 95% and a confidence interval of 6%. These hotels were extracted from a population of 2,862 small...
Moreover, they enrich the ELECTRE methodology at the stage of object ranking. These methods determine the input and output preference flows, based on which we can create a partial ranking in the PROMETHEE I method [85]. In contrast, in the PROMETHEE II method, the net preference flow values...
