Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new packet prioritization scheme in order to exploit the full-duplex (FD) capability of the access point (AP) more efficiently, in an asymmetric IEEE 802.11-based WLAN, i.e., only the AP has the in-band FD communications capability. In this respect, we consider a modified version of IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol such that at any transmission opportunity in which AP has the role of the transmitter or the receiver, it does the best to select a partner packet to be simultaneously received or transmitted, respectively. The key feature of our proposed partner packet selection scheme is to reduce the idle time intervals that in an FD transmission opportunity, due to...
A Data-Driven Framework Based on Credit Risk Management for Improving the Performance of Peer-To-Peer Lending Platforms

Abstract
Peoples need financial resources to improve their quality of life, and companies need them to progress and increase their comparative advantage. Borrowing is one of the most popular methods of financing. Peer-to-peer lending, also known as "marketplace" or "social" lending, is a novel form of intermediation that expunges the role of financial institutions (like banks) as an intermediary and allows entities (individuals or businesses) to raise loans directly from other entities. This lending platform can provide better quality services to borrowers (by quickly providing a simple loan application process through a transparent and flexible portal) and lenders (by managing their funding and live...
