Why do professional athletes have different time preferences than non-athletes? [PDF]
Judgment and Decision Making, 2011 The objective of this paper is to measure and compare the subjective time discounting of professional athletes and non-athletes. By using a questionnaire, we found higher subjective discounting for professional athletes than for non-athletes.

THE NEOCLASSICAL GROWTH MODEL WITH HETEROGENOUS QUASI-GEOMETRIC CONSUMERS [PDF]
This paper studies how the assumption of quasi-geometric (quasi-hyperbolic) discounting affects the individual consumption-savings behavior in the context of the standard one-sector neoclassical growth model with heterogeneous agents.

Overcoming the Nyquist Limit in Molecular Hyperspectral Imaging by Reinforcement Learning
Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.Explorative spectral acquisition guide automatically selects informative spectral bands to optimize downstream tasks, outperforming full‐spectrum acquisition. The selected hyperspectral data are used for tasks such as unmixing and segmentation. BandOptiNet encodes selection states and outputs optimal bands to guide spectral acquisition. Recent advances

Deriving time discounting correction factors for TTO tariffs [PDF]
The Time Tradeoff (TTO) method is a popular method for valuing health state utilities and is frequently used in economic evaluations. However, this method produces utilities that are distorted by several biases.

Steering the Shape‐shifting of Bullvalene‐PdII Complexes Through Steric and Geometric Strain
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.This study explores the use of bis‐pyridyl substituted bullvalenes as dynamic shape‐shifting ligands within cis‐capped PdII complexes. The ring position of the pyridyl nitrogen is critical, leading to a range of Pd2L2 metallacycles and simple PdL complexes, each with distinctive bullvalene isomer preferences (represented in the figure by A‐D isomer ...

Features of discounting lease payments in the context of determining the interest rate
Интеллект. Инновации. ИнвестицииWhen discounting rental payments, the discount rate level plays a key role. If, in accordance with the terms of the lease agreement, the rate cannot be precisely determined, it is necessary to resort to similar borrowing rates with comparable conditions,

Non-constant discounting in finite horizon: The free terminal time case [PDF]
This paper derives the HJB (Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman) equation for sophisticated agents in a finite horizon dynamic optimization problem with non-constant discounting in a continuous setting, by using a dynamic programming approach.
