Reliability measures in knowledge structure theory
Abstract In knowledge structure theory (KST) framework, this study evaluates the reliability of knowledge state estimation by introducing two key measures: the expected accuracy rate and the expected discrepancy. The accuracy rate quantifies the likelihood that the estimated knowledge state aligns with the true state, while the expected discrepancy ...

SDFs from Unoriented Point Clouds using Neural Variational Heat Distances
We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from unoriented point clouds. We first compute a small time step of heat flow (middle) and then use its gradient directions to solve for a neural SDF (right). Abstract We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from ...

Block scheduling in practice: An optimal decomposition strategy for nonidentical operating rooms
Abstract We develop and implement a Master Surgery Schedule for a real‐life hospital, assigning operating room (OR) time to surgical specialties over a multi‐week horizon. Through action research, we identify a critical operational challenge: the issue of split blocks. Split blocks allow two specialties to share an OR on the same day—one in the morning,

Limit Orders and Knightian Uncertainty
ABSTRACT A wide variety of financial instruments allows risk‐averse traders to reduce their exposure to risk. This raises the question of what financial instruments allow ambiguity‐averse traders to reduce their exposure to ambiguity. We show in this paper that price‐contingent orders, such as limit orders, are sufficient: In a two‐period trading model,

Medical Knowledge Integration Into Reinforcement Learning Algorithms for Dynamic Treatment Regimes
Summary The goal of precision medicine is to provide individualised treatment at each stage of chronic diseases, a concept formalised by dynamic treatment regimes (DTR). These regimes adapt treatment strategies based on decision rules learned from clinical data to enhance therapeutic effectiveness.

ABSTRACT Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. Its incidence increases significantly with age and has become a major global public health issue. Although research into the mechanisms of AF has spanned over a century‐ranging from the reentry theory to the rotor hypothesis‐none of these

Macroprudential Policy in the Euro Area
Abstract This paper examines the development and impact of macroprudential policies in the euro area. We construct a novel index that captures the stance of macroprudential policy, and we highlight its main stylized facts since the inception of the euro in 1999. We combine a narrative approach and a structural VAR method to show that both unanticipated

What Are Asset Price Bubbles? A Survey on Definitions of Financial Bubbles
ABSTRACT Financial bubbles and crashes have repeatedly caused economic turmoil notably but not just during the 2008 financial crisis. However, both in the popular press as well as scientific publications, the meaning of bubble is sometimes unspecified.

Asset Pricing and Risk‐Sharing Implications of Alternative Pension Plan Systems
ABSTRACT We show that incorporating defined benefit pension funds in an incomplete markets asset pricing model improves its ability to match the historical equity premium and riskless rate and has important risk‐sharing implications. We document the importance of the pension fund's size and asset demands, and a new risk channel arising from ...
