Complexity of Strong Implementability [PDF]

EPTCS 4, 2009, pp. 1-12, 2009
We consider the question of implementability of a social choice function in a classical setting where the preferences of finitely many selfish individuals with private information have to be aggregated towards a social choice. This is one of the central questions in mechanism design.

Some Practical Guidance for the Implementation of Propensity Score Matching

Social Science Research Network, 2005
Propensity Score Matching (PSM) has become a popular approach to estimate causal treatment effects. It is widely applied when evaluating labour market policies, but empirical examples can be found in very diverse fields of study.

Conceptualizing outcomes for use with the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR): the CFIR Outcomes Addendum

Implementation Science, 2022
Background The challenges of implementing evidence-based innovations (EBIs) are widely recognized among practitioners and researchers. Context, broadly defined as everything outside the EBI, includes the dynamic and diverse array of forces working for or

Coordinating across correctional, community, and VA systems: applying the Collaborative Chronic Care Model to post-incarceration healthcare and reentry support for veterans with mental health and substance use disorders

Health & Justice, 2019
Background Between 12,000 and 16,000 veterans leave incarceration annually. As is known to be the case for justice-involved populations in general, mental health disorders (MHDs) and substance use disorders (SUDs) are highly prevalent among incarcerated ...

Implementing Online Reinforcement Learning with Temporal Neural Networks [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
A Temporal Neural Network (TNN) architecture for implementing efficient online reinforcement learning is proposed and studied via simulation. The proposed T-learning system is composed of a frontend TNN that implements online unsupervised clustering and a backend TNN that implements online reinforcement learning.
