eng	Modelling Quality of Life in Regional Centres	Quality of life can be understood as objectively or subjectively measurable quantity. Consequently, it is represented either by the quality of environment or by the individual perceptions of quality of life. The paper is focused on the latter approach as it includes an analysis of the quality of life in the EU regional centres. Using a regression model based on Support Vector Machines the factors of satisfaction with life are analyzed. The emphasis is put on the possibilities of public management to influence the life quality of its residents by especially financial decision-making. The quality of life, in particular, is affected by the satisfaction of citizens with transportation, health, safety, culture, environment and housing. At the same time, objective measures like demographic indicators and cultural and social infrastructure proved to be significant factors as well.
