Time-series econometrics is a crucial tool for forecasting power-grid behaviour in Nigeria, where accurate predictions are essential for grid stability and reliability. This paper introduces a novel approach to analyse the stability and derive convergence proofs for econometric models applied to power-grid data. We establish an assumption that all model parameters are non-negative, ensuring realistic forecasts. The analysis employs a specific error term property, which guarantees stability under certain conditions. Our findings indicate that by applying these methodologies, we can achieve more reliable and consistent predictions of power-grid behaviour over time. The developed methods provide a solid foundation for improving the accuracy and reliability of future power-grid forecasts in Nigeria.

Asymptotic Analysis and Identifiability Checks in Time-Series Econometrics for Power-Grid Forecasting in Kenya,
This Data Descriptor focuses on asymptotic analysis and identifiability checks in time-series econometrics for power-grid forecasting in Kenya. A theoretical framework based on asymptotic analysis is employed to examine the identifiability of model parameters in a simplified power-grid forecasting system. A specific assumption regarding the stationarity of the data series is made, and properties such as convergence rates are derived from this assumption. The analysis reveals that under the assumed stationarity condition, the coefficients of the autoregressive process governing the power grid data converge to their true values at a rate of $O(n^{-1/2})$ where $n$ is the number of observations. This finding provides insight into how accurately these parameters can be estimated from finite samples. The study underscores the importance of ensuring stationarity in time-series data for reliable forecasting and highlights the asymptotic analysis as a robust method for assessing model identifiability. Future research should extend this analysis to more complex power-grid systems, including non-stationary components, to improve forecasting accuracy. Additionally, practical applications could include developing diagnostic tools to detect non-stationarity in real-world data.

A Comparative Study of Bayesian Inference for Telecommunication Network Reliability in Senegal
The reliability of telecommunication networks is crucial for Senegal’s economic development and social connectivity. Bayesian inference offers a robust framework to estimate network parameters under uncertainty but has not been extensively studied in this context. This study compares the performance of three distinct Bayesian models (A, B, and C) for assessing telecommunication network reliability in Senegal through asymptotic analysis and identifiability checks. The objectives are to identify which model provides more accurate estimates under varying network conditions and to ensure reliable application. We employed a comparative study using Models A, B, and C. Asymptotic analysis was conducted to evaluate the consistency of parameter estimates as sample size increases, with Model B showing superior performance through an asymptotic convergence rate of \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{n}} \). Identifiability checks were performed to confirm unique determination of network reliability parameters. Model B demonstrated superior performance with faster and more accurate parameter estimates. Identifiability checks confirmed that this model could uniquely determine network reliability parameters without ambiguity. The comparative analysis suggests that Bayesian Model B is the most reliable for assessing telecommunication network reliability in Senegal due to its strong asymptotic properties and identifiability. Telecommunication providers in Senegal should adopt Bayesian Model B for critical network assessments. Future research should validate these findings with real-world data.

Graph theory models are increasingly used in agricultural yield prediction due to their ability to represent complex relationships between various factors influencing crop production. In Nigeria's diverse agro-ecological zones, the accuracy and reliability of such models are crucial for informed decision-making. This study aimed to apply graph theory using adjacency matrices and network flows to model agricultural systems in Nigeria. The objectives were to evaluate the predictive accuracy of these models through asymptotic analysis and identifiability checks, specifically focusing on soil quality parameters. A combination of qualitative and quantitative methods was employed. Qualitative analysis involved reviewing existing literature and conducting stakeholder interviews, while quantitative analysis used asymptotic theory to assess model behaviour under different conditions. The study incorporated seasonal data into graph theory models to enhance accuracy. Incorporating seasonal data improved yield prediction accuracy by 15%. Identifiability checks indicated that soil quality parameters were most sensitive, highlighting their critical role in model performance. A formal mathematical relation was used: \( f(x) = \arg\min_g L(g; x) \), where \( g \) represents the parameter vector and \( L \) is the loss function. Graph theory models show promise in predicting agricultural yields with enhanced accuracy through asymptotic analysis and parameter refinement. However, further research should integrate real-time data for dynamic predictions. Stakeholders should be more directly involved to ensure model parameters remain relevant.

In Ethiopia, where agriculture plays a critical role in the economy, accurate predictions are essential for policy-making and development planning. This study aimed to perform a stability analysis and convergence proofs of time-series econometric models, specifically using Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) models, on historical data related to agricultural yields, climate variables, and socioeconomic indicators in Ethiopia.
