Armenia's ICT sector has experienced remarkable growth, expanding by 20% in 2022, underscoring the country's commitment to digital transformation as a policy priority. Despite these efforts and trends, SMEs continues to face significant obstacles in their digital transformation, including lack of awareness, low digital skills levels, and financial constraints. This reports aims to support the Armenian government in addressing these challenges and fostering business digitalisation. Building on previous OECD work on digitalisation policies and insights from the 2024 edition of the SME Policy Index for Eastern Partner countries, this publication offers a comprehensive overview of Armenia’s institutional framework and policy initiatives for SME digitalisation. Through data-driven analysis, it examines the challenges hindering the digital transformation of Armenian businesses and provides insights to unlock their potential. This report serves as a guide, offering detailed recommendations aimed at improving framework conditions for SME digitalisation, building a structured system for SME digitalisation support, and fostering synergies in the ecosystem to facilitate digital transformation.

Artificial Neural Networks (NNs) possess a great potential for automatic classification: they can be trained to classify successfully noisy, incomplete, or inconsistent data. However, an automation degree of existing NNs is relatively low because of several limitations. Usually, NNs require manual configuration: a large number of tuning parameters and the need for choosing an appropriate network topology lead to lengthy experimental cycles performed to find the best settings for a certain classification task. Additionally, many NNs need retraining in respect to changing input data and therefore cannot learn automatically in non-stationary environments. Another disadvantage of NNs is their «black-box» nature: they are not suitable for verification or interpretation by humans. A low degree of automation prevents employment of NNs in many practical applications when the users cannot be involved in the training and classification processes. Therefore the initial goal of the presented research was to develop a neural classifier that would be well-suited for automation. Für die Verwendung von künstlichen neuronalen Netzen als automatischen Klassifikatoren sprechen ihre Lernfähigkeit, Modellfreiheit und Nichtlinearität der Datenapproximation. Ein zusätzlicher Vorteil ist ihre Fähigkeit zur Verarbeitung unvollständiger, verrauschter oder inkonsistenter Information. Trotzdem beeinträchtigen drei wichtige Faktoren die Automatisierbarkeit neuronaler Algorithmen: die Konfiguration eines Netzes benötigt oft entweder viel Fachwissen und Erfahrung oder eine Phase zeitaufwändiger Parameteroptimierung; die neuronale Klassifikatoren zeigen ein sogenanntes «Black-Box»-Verhalten, d.h. das angelernte Wissen ist nicht interpretierbar. Außerdem sind nur wenige Algorithmen so stabil, dass sie in der Lage sind, in nicht stationären Anwendungen zu lernen.

Agricultural innovation has played a critical role in the economic transformation of developing East Asian countries over the past half century. The Green Revolution—in the form of modern seed varieties, chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and modern machinery—has contributed to increased crop yields and farm incomes, and decreased poverty across the region. Although policy makers’ traditional focus on expanding and intensifying agricultural production has brought many benefits, the focus on productivity has come at a rising cost. The environmental sustainability of agricultural production is increasingly under threat. Moreover, as countries in the region have become more urbanized and demand for processed foods has risen, inadequate food safety systems and related food safety hazards have created a new form of food insecurity. As detailed in Agricultural Innovation in Developing East Asia: Productivity, Safety, and Sustainability, a new generation of innovation in agriculture has the potential to address the challenges of productivity, sustainability, and food safety to deliver a “triple win.†? To make the most of this promising wave of agricultural innovations, policy makers in the region will need to act to strengthen countries’ agricultural innovation systems. This effort will require a cross-cutting approach, including policy and institutional reforms, improved governance of countries’ agri-food systems, and efforts to build farmers’ and firms’ capacities to adopt new technologies and to innovate.
