The Development of a Theory of Rational Intertemporal Choice
Papers, 2006 The aim of this article is to describe the evolution of a very dynamic theory: the theory of intertemporal choice. I present the first economic thinking on intertemporal decision-making, and expose how it resulted in Samuelson’s famous discounted utility

A general optimal adaptive framework for managing a threatened species
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, 2022 Managers must determine which interventions best protect threatened species when the outcomes of interventions are uncertain. Adaptive management is a dynamic optimization approach that generates optimal management actions based on current knowledge ...

, 2020 Although expected utility theory has proven a fruitful and elegant theory in the finite realm, attempts to generalize it to infinite values have resulted in many paradoxes.

Expected utility theory, Jeffrey’s decision theory, and the paradoxes [PDF]
, 2020 In Richard Bradley’s book, Decision Theory with a Human Face, we have selected two themes for discussion. The first is the Bolker-Jeffrey theory of decision, which the book uses throughout as a tool to reorganize the whole field of decision theory, and ...

Asymptotic Efficiency of Point Estimators in Bayesian Predictive Inference
Mathematics, 2022 The point estimation problems that emerge in Bayesian predictive inference are concerned with random quantities which depend on both observable and non-observable variables.

Bayesian Decision Theory and Stochastic Independence [PDF]
, 2020 As stochastic independence is essential to the mathematical development of probability theory, it seems that any foundational work on probability should be able to account for this property. Bayesian decision theory appears to be wanting in this respect.

On the relation between robust and Bayesian decision making [PDF]
, 2003 This paper compares Bayesian decision theory with robust decision theory where the decision maker optimizes with respect to the worst state realization.

Quantum theory of measurements as quantum decision theory
, 2015 Theory of quantum measurements is often classified as decision theory. An event in decision theory corresponds to the measurement of an observable. This analogy looks clear for operationally testable simple events.
