Conditional Generative Modeling for Enhanced Credit Risk Management in Supply Chain Finance

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rapid expansion of cross‐border e‐commerce (CBEC) has created significant opportunities for small‐ and medium‐sized sellers, yet financing remains a critical challenge due to their limited credit histories. Third‐party logistics (3PL)‐led supply chain finance (SCF) has emerged as a promising solution, leveraging in‐transit inventory as ...

Optimal Designs and Inspection Time Decisions for Gamma Accelerated Degradation Tests

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study analytically derives optimal designs for gamma accelerated degradation tests while incorporating inspection time as a design variable under both D‐ and V‐optimality criteria. Under D‐optimality, we prove that the optimal design allocates test units exclusively to the lowest and highest stress levels and adopts the longest inspection
