Interbank market of Pakistan has experienced a structural shift in June 2008
Muhammad Omer shows that Uncovered Interest rate Parity (UIP) holds for the LIBOR currencies over short horizon. This finding is an important addition to the existing literature on UIP.
A detailed examination of persistent liquidity in the interbank market of Pakistan shows that the interbank market has experienced a structural shift in June 2008. Before June 2008, low credit demand was driving (involuntary) excess liquidity holdings by banks. After June 2008, banks’ precautionary investments in risk free securities drive their (voluntary) liquidity holdings.
On studying the impact of this excess liquidity on monetary transmission, the results suggest that excess liquidity significantly affect the pass-through of the policy tools to the lending rate. It has no long-run impact on the pass-through of the policy tools to deposit rate and (growth of) exchange rate.

It charts Ali's evolution from Black Nationalism to a universalism, but does not discount the Nation of Islam and Black Nationalism's important influence on his intellectual development. Filipino American author Emil Guillermo speaks about how "The Thrilla' In Manila" brought the Philippines into the 20th century.

No full textDeepIOD: Towards A Context-Aware Indoor–Outdoor Detection Framework Using Smartphone Sensors
No full textAccurate indoor–outdoor detection (IOD) is essential for location-based services, context-aware computing, and mobile applications, as it enhances service relevance and precision. However, traditional IOD methods, which rely only on GPS data, often fail in indoor environments due to signal obstructions, while IMU data are unreliable on unseen data in real-time applications due to reduced generalizability. This study addresses this research gap by introducing the DeepIOD framework, which leverages IMU sensor data, GPS, and light information to accurately classify environments as indoor or outdoor. The framework preprocesses input data and employs multiple deep neural network models, combining outputs using an adaptive majority voting mechanism to ensure robust and reliable predictions. Experimental results evaluated on six unseen environments using a smartphone demonstrate that DeepIOD achieves significantly higher accuracy than methods using only IMU sensors. Our DeepIOD system achieves a remarkable accuracy rate of 98–99% with a transition time of less than 10 ms. This research concludes that DeepIOD offers a robust and reliable solution for indoor–outdoor classification with high generalizability, highlighting the importance of integrating diverse data sources to improve location-based services and other applications requiring precise environmental context awareness
