An Investigation of Key Symptoms That Account for the Early Response Effect During Psychological Therapy for Eating Disorders

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The early response effect, defined as a reliable symptomatic improvement during the initial phase of treatment, is the most robust predictor of recovery following eating disorder treatment. This study aimed to investigate which symptom domains mostly influence the early response effect. Methods Data from N = 232 adult patients (90.8%

Reachability in continuous-time Markov reward decision processes

, 2008
Continuous-time Markov decision processes (CTMDPs) are widely used for the control of queueing systems, epidemic and manufacturing processes. Various results on optimal schedulers for discounted and average reward optimality criteria in CTMDPs are known, but the typical game-theoretic winning objectives have received scant attention so far.

Intelligent Control Framework of District Heating Systems Considering Waste Heat Utilization in Data Centers

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A deep reinforcement learning–based control architecture is proposed to coordinate heat pumps, thermal storage, renewable energy, and demand response in data center waste heat recovery systems. The agent learns optimal control actions from system states and reward feedback to achieve electrical–thermal co‐optimization under realistic operational ...

A Rapid Post‐Disaster Restoration Method for Networked Microgrids Based on Adaptive Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
To enhance the power restoration speed of networked microgrids (NMGs) after extreme natural disasters and reduce the power outage of the system, this paper proposes a rapid post‐disaster restoration method for NMGs based co‐optimization of fault repair and load restoration.

A Comparison of Realized Measures of Integrated Volatility: Price Duration‐ vs. Return‐Based Approaches

Journal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study the accuracy of a variety of parametric price duration‐based realized variance estimators constructed via various financial duration models and compare their forecasting performance with the performance of various nonparametric return‐based realized variance estimators.

Forecasting Volatility of Commodity, Currency, and Stock Markets: Evidence From Markov‐Switching Multifractal Models

Journal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper adopts a bivariate Markov‐switching multifractal (BMSM) model to reexamine comovement in SV between commodity, foreign exchange (FX), and stock markets. After the 2007–2008 global financial crisis understanding volatility linkages and the correlation structure between these markets becomes very important for risk analysts, portfolio

Quadratic Hedging of American Options Under GARCH Models

Journal of Futures Markets, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT American options are widely traded in financial markets, yet there is a scarcity of literature on hedging in incomplete markets. In this paper, we derive optimal hedging ratios and option values using Local Risk Minimization (LRM) and Global Risk Minimization (GRM) hedging strategies through dynamic programming.
