The datasets included in this article come from a survey carried out on a group of Polish students and self-employed entrepreneurs and were originally created for studies on tax behaviour under the slippery slope framework. The slippery slope framework explains the role of extensive power execution and building trust in the tax administration in enhancing either enforced or voluntary tax compliance accordingly [1]. Students of economics, finance, and management at the Faculty of Economic Sciences and the Faculty of Management at the University of Warsaw were surveyed in two rounds, in 2011 and 2022, using paper-based questionnaires handed to them personally.

One of the most important policies of the European Union is regional development, which comprises measures of enhancing economic growth and citizens' living standards via strategic investment. Considering that economic growth and wellbeing are intertwined from the perspective of EU policies, this study examines the relationship between wellbeing-related infrastructure and economic growth in 212 NUTS 2 regional subdivisions across the members of Eu-28 during the period 2001-2020. We therefore analyzed data from 151 Western Europe regions and 61 Central and Eastern Europe regions by means of a panel data analysis with the first-difference generalized method of moments estimator.

Article Synopsis
  • Graph kernels are effective in analyzing discrete geometric data by preserving graph topological structures and enabling machine learning on vector data that evolves into graphs.
  • A unique kernel function is proposed to assess the similarity of point cloud data, which is essential for various applications.
  • This research highlights the effectiveness of the new kernel in measuring similarity and categorizing point clouds based on their underlying discrete geometry.

Although many studies have shown that deep learning approaches yield better results than traditional methods based on manual features, CADs methods still have several limitations. These are due to the diversity in imaging modalities and clinical pathologies. This diversity creates difficulties because of variation and similarities between classes.
