A Generalization of Quantal Response Equilibrium via Perturbed Utility
We present a tractable generalization of quantal response equilibrium via non-expected utility preferences. In particular, we introduce concave perturbed utility games in which an individual has strategy-specific utility indices that depend on the ...

Subjective Expected Utility with State-Dependent but Action/Observation-Independent Preferences

Expected Information as Expected Utility
The normative procedure for the design of an experiment is to select a utility function, assess the probabilities, and to choose that design of maximum expected utility. One difficulty with this view is that a scientist typically does not have, nor can be normally expected to have, a clear idea of the utility of his results. An alternative is to design

ABSTRACT Background An internal tandem duplication in the gene encoding Fms‐like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3‐ITD) is associated with high relapse risk and poor prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and plays a crucial role in treatment decisions. Measurable residual disease (MRD) analysis of FLT3‐ITD during and after treatment has shown prognostic ...
