ABSTRACT A method for conducting Bayesian elicitation and learning in risk assessment is presented. It assumes that the risk process can be described as a fault tree. This is viewed as a belief network, for which prior distributions on primary event probabilities are elicited by means of a pairwise comparison approach.

Topological Entropy of Cournot-Puu Duopoly
The aim of this paper is to analyze a classical duopoly model introduced by Tönu Puu in 1991. For that, we compute the topological entropy of the model and characterize those parameter values with positive entropy.

Testing for the zero‐altered Poisson distribution with positive data
ABSTRACT This article proposes three new goodness‐of‐fit tests for the zero‐altered Poisson distribution, or equivalently for the positive Poisson distribution, based on positive data, that is, data truncated at 0, whose test statistic is built using a characterization of this law.

On a Variational Method for Stiff Differential Equations Arising from Chemistry Kinetics
For the approximation of stiff systems of ODEs arising from chemistry kinetics, implicit integrators emerge as good candidates. This paper proposes a variational approach for this type of systems.

Total Distance Walked After Hip Surgery Identifies Older Patients With Sarcopenia
ABSTRACT This study aims to determine the optimal cut‐off point for total walking distance on the day of hospital discharge to identify older adults at high risk of sarcopenia following hip fracture surgery. A prospective observational study included 135 patients aged > 65 years who underwent hip fracture surgery.
