Bioscience Journal, 2017 The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of stochastic simulations in decision-making regarding the economic viability of feedlot finishing Charolais steers slaughtered at different weights (420, 460 or 500 kg live weight).

Economies, 2017 Both stochastic dominance and Omegaratio can be used to examine whether the market is efficient, whether there is any arbitrage opportunity in the market and whether there is any anomaly in the market.

Stochastic Programs with First-Order Dominance Constraints Induced by Mixed-Integer Linear Recourse [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Optimization, 2008 We propose a new class of stochastic integer programs whose special features are dominance constraints induced by mixed-integer linear recourse. For these models, we establish closedness of the constraint set mapping with the underlying probability measure as a parameter.

IIMB Management Review, 2018 We investigate farmers’ decision making under risk by eliciting their willingness to pay for hypothetical risky income distributions. We also investigate whether farmers behave differently to price and yield risk.

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 This paper presents the results of a detailed X-ray timing and spectral analysis of Mrk 501, which are based mainly on the Swift data obtained during 2021 February–2022 December. The source showed strongly enhanced X-ray activity, characterized by a long-

On the existence of certainty equivalents of various relevant types
Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2003 We tackle the problem of associating certainty equivalents with preferences over stochastic situations, which arises in a number of different fields (e.g., the theory of risk attitudes or the analysis of stochastic cooperative games).

RSD: An R package to calculate stochastic dominance
SoftwareXStochastic dominance is a classical method for comparing two random variables using their probability distribution functions. As for all stochastic orders, stochastic dominance does not always establish an order between the random variables, and almost ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.
