The present study introduces a set of machine learning-based models to predict the heating and cooling loads in buildings. This includes back-propagation artificial neural network, generalized regression neural network, radial basis neural network, radial kernel support vector machines and ANOVA kernel support vector machines. | A comprehensive comparative analysis of machine learning models for predicting heating and cooling loads Uncertain Supply Chain Management 8 2020 563 568 Contents lists available at GrowingScience Uncertain Supply Chain Management homepage uscm How does corporate performance affect supply chain finance Evidence from logistics sector Toan Ngoc Buia a Faculty of Finance and Banking Industrial University of Ho Chi Minh City IUH Vietnam CHRONICLE ABSTRACT Article history The paper investigates the impact of corporate performance on supply chain finance with the Received November 29 2019 data collected from logistics sector in Vietnam. Particularly supply chain finance is measured Received in revised format by cash conversion cycle CCC . By using the generalized method of moment GMM the February 20 2020 results show that corporate performance CP exerts a negative impact on cash conversion Accepted February 22 2020 Available online cycle CCC . Alternatively corporate performance positively affects supply chain finance February 22 2020 which is an interesting finding of this paper. Further supply chain finance is also significantly Keywords influenced by some control variables namely capital structure CS firm size FS and firm Cash conversion cycle growth FG . The results are essential for the management of supply chain especially those Corporate performance working in logistics sector.

Introduction After further integration to the global economy Vietnam has been signing a number of free trade agreements with some countries and areas. Among them Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership CPTPP signed in Chile on March 8 2018 should be highlighted. Thanks to this goods originated from different countries have been able to enter Vietnam s market. Also Vietnamese products are more exported to other markets. Together with this
