The effect of Risk Aversion on the Dynamic Selection of the Optimum Portfolio [PDF]

Faslnāmah-i Pizhūhish/Nāmah-i Iqtisādī, 2011
Economic agents are constantly making decisions to maximize their expected utilities while accepting some risks. The question is that, how the efficient portfolio of the assets in a specific level of risk is formed to maximize the individual’s utility?

A Quality Improvement Initiative to Standardize Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia Prophylaxis in Pediatric Patients With Solid Tumors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric patients with extracranial solid tumors (ST) receiving chemotherapy are at an increased risk for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). However, evidence guiding prophylaxis practices in this population is limited. A PJP‐related fatality at our institution highlighted inconsistent prescribing approaches and concerns about

Profit-Driven Methodology for Servo Press Motion Selection under Material Variability

Applied Sciences, 2021
Servo presses enable new types of forming motion profiles that can be used to stamp difficult materials, such as high strength steels. This paper presents an application of Bayesian statistics to intelligently select which motion profile maximizes the ...

Unbounded Expected Utility

The Annals of Statistics, 1975
Let P be a convex set of finitely additive probability measures defined on a Boolean algebra of subsets of a set X of consequences. Axioms are specified for a preference relation $\prec$ on P which are necessary and sufficient for the existence of a real-valued utility function u on X for which expected utility E (u, p) is finite for all p in P and for

Changes in Body Composition in Children and Young People Undergoing Treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ongoing evidence indicates increased risk of sarcopenic obesity among children and young people (CYP) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), often beginning early in treatment, persisting into survivorship. This review evaluates current literature on body composition in CYP with ALL during and after treatment.

Predicting Chronicity in Children and Adolescents With Newly Diagnosed Immune Thrombocytopenia at the Timepoint of Diagnosis Using Machine Learning‐Based Approaches

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To identify predictors of chronic ITP (cITP) and to develop a model based on several machine learning (ML) methods to estimate the individual risk of chronicity at the timepoint of diagnosis. Methods We analyzed a longitudinal cohort of 944 children enrolled in the Intercontinental Cooperative immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) Study ...

A Systematic Review of Evidence on the Clinical Effectiveness of Surveillance Imaging in Children With Medulloblastoma and Ependymoma

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Surveillance imaging aims to detect tumour relapse before symptoms develop, but it's unclear whether earlier detection of relapse leads to better outcomes in children and young people (CYP) with medulloblastoma and ependymoma. This systematic review aims to identify relevant literature to determine the efficacy of surveillance magnetic ...

Unifying Speed-Accuracy Trade-Off and Cost-Benefit Trade-Off in Human Reaching Movements

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Two basic trade-offs interact while our brain decides how to move our body. First, with the cost-benefit trade-off, the brain trades between the importance of moving faster toward a target that is more rewarding and the increased muscular cost resulting ...
