Decision Uncertainty from Strict Preferences in Sequential Search Scenarios with Multiple Criteria
MathematicsThe standard expected utility model applied by economists and decision scientists assumes both that decision makers (DMs) are rational and that their information retrieval behavior and choices are determined by the observed and potential values of the ...

Understanding Russian aggression towards Georgia
Politikon, 2012 Did Russia initiate conflict with Georgia in an attempt to restrain Georgia from formally joining the Western coalition, or was the decision more complex? What did Russia hope to gain from initiating conflict? What value did Russia assign to maintaining

CONSISTENT DYNAMICE CHOICE AND NON-EXPECTED UTILITY PREFERENCES [PDF]
Pursuing works from Sarin and Wakker (1998), we study how NonExpected Utility models could be consistently applied to multi-stage decision problems. Concerning multiple priors model, we remove the argument that dynamic consistency, consequentialism and ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Resolving inconsistencies in utility measurement under risk: Tests of generalizations of expected utility [PDF]
This paper explores biases in the elicitation of utilities under risk and the contribution that generalizations of expected utility can make to the resolution of these biases.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) reduces growth of HPV‐positive cervical cancer spheroids and induces ferroptosis in cervical cancer cells via blocking SLC7A11/Glutathione (GSH) axis. Combination of subcytotoxic doses of DMF and cisplatin (CDDP) further suppresses spheroid growth and drives cell death in 2D culture models.

Ergo, An Open Access Journal of PhilosophyA moral requirement R1 is said to be lexically prior to a moral requirement R2 just in case we are morally obliged to uphold R1 at the expense of R2—no matter how many times R2 must be violated thereby. While lexical priority is a feature of many ethical

Bankruptcy and expected utility maximization [PDF]
Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control, 1994 This paper introduces a utility formulation to the well-known gambler's ruin problem. An agent who maximizes lifetime expected utility has to tradeoff short-term utility against longer-term survival prospects. The optimal tradeoff is established by way of characterizing the agents' value and optimal policy functions.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.

Filozofická reflexe omezené racionality (Philosophical Reflection of Bounded Rationality )
Ostium, 2017 Research of rationality represents area of interaction between philosophy and economics. Development of neuroscience and advances in scientific research lead to another common characteristic – gradual loss of competence to comment on results of ...
