Almost Stochastic Dominance for Risk-Averse and Risk-Seeking Investors [PDF]
, 2013 In this paper we first develop a theory of almost stochastic dominance for risk-seeking investors to the first three orders. Thereafter, we study the relationship between the preferences of almost stochastic dominance for risk-seekers with that for risk averters.

Price limits under incomplete preference information based on almost stochastic dominance
Business Research, 2019 We derive price limits as decision aids for identifying favorable and unfavorable contracts from the perspective of a selling firm in face of uncertain outcomes.

Almost marginal conditional stochastic dominance [PDF]
Journal of Banking & Finance, 2014 Marginal Conditional Stochastic Dominance (MCSD) developed by Shalit and Yitzhaki (1994) gives the conditions under which all risk-averse individuals prefer to increase the share of one risky asset over another in a given portfolio. In this paper, we extend this concept to provide conditions under which most (and not all) risk-averse investors behave ...

Precise synaptic efficacy alignment suggests potentiation dominated learning
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2016 Recent evidence suggests that parallel synapses from the same axonal branch onto the same dendritic branch have almost identical strength. It has been proposed that this alignment is only possible through learning rules that integrate activity over long ...

Effects of primary productivity on beta diversity of ecological communities
Acta Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2019 Aim Several ecological factors are predicted to affect beta diversity - the dissimilarity of communities among localities or through time. Considering the effect of primary productivity, there is a divergence in the literature concerning if it is ...

RSD: An R package to calculate stochastic dominance
SoftwareXStochastic dominance is a classical method for comparing two random variables using their probability distribution functions. As for all stochastic orders, stochastic dominance does not always establish an order between the random variables, and almost ...
