Hyperbolic Discounting Is Rational: Valuing the Far Future with Uncertain Discount Rates [PDF]
Conventional economics supposes that agents value the present vs. the future using an exponential discounting function. In contrast, experiments with animals and humans suggest that agents are better described as hyperbolic discounters, whose discount ...

Human Resource Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT New ventures are expected to continuously add new jobs and managerial positions to meet the expanding demands of scaling. However, the rapid pace and inherent uncertainty of scaling often lead founders of new ventures to rely on heuristics when making these critical hiring and managerial appointment decisions.

Last‐minute coordination: Adapting to demand to support last‐mile operations
Journal of Operations Management, Volume 71, Issue 2, Page 176-194, March 2025.Abstract In the highly competitive e‐commerce industry, customer‐facing warehouses are crucial as the “order penetration points” for e‐commerce last‐mile operations. This research examines how warehouses use last‐minute coordination, an unstructured mechanism, to ensure sufficient inventory at the order penetration points. Previous research has focused

Spatial Image Gradient Estimation From the Diffusion MRI Profile
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose In the course of diffusion, water molecules encounter varying values for the relaxation‐time properties of the underlying tissue. This factor, which has rarely been accounted for in diffusion MRI (dMRI), is modeled in this work, allowing for the estimation of the gradient of relaxation‐time properties from the dMRI signal. Methods With
