Modeling the Relationship between Expected Gain and Expected Value
Rational choice theory holds that the alternative with largest expected utility in the choice set should always be chosen. However, it is often observed that an alternative with the largest expected utility is not always chosen while the choice task ...

Egalitarian justice and expected value [PDF]
According to all-luck egalitarianism, the differential distributive effects of both brute luck, which defines the outcome of risks which are not deliberately taken, and option luck, which defines the outcome of deliberate gambles, are unjust. Exactly how

This study investigates the dynamics of three discrete independent events occurring randomly and repeatedly within the interval [0,T]. Each event spans a predetermined fraction γ of the total interval length T before concluding.

This work applies the Second-Order Adjoint Sensitivity Analysis Methodology (2nd-ASAM) to compute the 1st-order and unmixed 2nd-order sensitivities of a polyethylene-reflected plutonium (PERP) benchmark’s leakage response with respect to the benchmark’s ...

An Expected Value Approach to the Dual-Use Problem [PDF]
In this chapter I examine how expected-value theory might inform responses to what I call the dual-use problem. I begin by defining that problem. I then outline a procedure, which invokes expected-value theory, for tackling it.

By applying the Second-Order Adjoint Sensitivity Analysis Methodology (2nd-ASAM) to the polyethylene-reflected plutonium (PERP) benchmark, this work presents results for the first- and second-order sensitivities of this benchmark’s leakage response

Enumeration of the Additive Degree–Kirchhoff Index in the Random Polygonal Chains
The additive degree–Kirchhoff index is an important topological index. This paper we devote to establishing the explicit analytical expression for the simple formulae of the expected value of the additive degree–Kirchhoff index in a random polygon. Based

On Symbolic n-Plithogenic Random Variables Using a Generalized Isomorphism [PDF]
In this work, we present a generalized isomorphism between field of symbolic n plithogenic set and 𝑅 𝑛+1 , use it to study the most general form of symbolic plithogenic random variables and study its probabilistic properties including expectation ...

Expected values of statistics on permutation tableaux [PDF]
Permutation tableaux are new objects that were introduced by Postnikov in the context of enumeration of the totally positive Grassmannian cells. They are known to be in bijection with permutations and recently, they have been connected to PASEP model ...

TVOR: Finding Discrete Total Variation Outliers Among Histograms
Pearson's chi-squared test can detect outliers in the data distribution of a given set of histograms. However, in fields such as demographics (for e.g. birth years), outliers may be more easily found in terms of the histogram smoothness where techniques ...
