Orthostatic Tremor Is Evoked by Muscle Load Without the Need for Orthostatic Position

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Primary orthostatic tremor (POT) is a rare movement disorder characterized by a high‐frequency tremor and a considerable feeling of unsteadiness. People with POT are significantly affected in their daily activities and have reduced quality of life.

Relative Performance Evaluation and Executive Compensation: Adding Fuel to the Fire

open access: yesManagerial and Decision Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this experimental study, we compare the effects of a compensation scheme based on relative performance evaluation (RPE) and a compensation scheme based on absolute performance evaluation (APE) on decision‐making in a market game. To this end, we conduct an online experiment using the strategy method to obtain individual responses in a ...

Launch Uncertainty Analysis Under Barrel Erosion Using Experiments and Random Matrix Theory

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The effects of barrel erosion on artillery firing performance have long been a subject of concern, but its effect on launch uncertainty has yet to be investigated. This article explores the influence of barrel erosion on the interior ballistic mechanical properties and launch disturbances.

Abundant Neighborhoods, Two‐Sided Markets, and Maximal Matchings

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT I introduce a new graph‐theoretic property called abundant neighborhoods. This property is motivated by studying the thickness of economic markets. A vertex is, roughly, guaranteed to match if and only if it has an abundant neighborhood.

Knowledge Gradient Procedure to Select the Best System Under Pairwise Comparisons

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article considers fixed‐budget ranking and selection (R&S) problems where the performance of alternative designs can only be assessed through pairwise comparisons, a setting encountered in many applications, including player ranking in games, sports tournaments, recommender systems, image‐based search, public choice models such as voting ...

Improved Regression Tree Models Using Generalization Error‐Based Splitting Criteria

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the widespread application of machine learning (ML) approaches such as the regression tree (RT) in the field of data‐driven optimization, overfitting may impair the effectiveness of ML models and thus hinder the deployment of ML for decision‐making.

New Policies Exploiting Randomness of Lead Times in Inventory Systems

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent research provided proof‐of‐concept that the randomness of lead times in inventory systems can be exploited to achieve large—potentially unlimited—performance improvements, compared to the case of constant lead time. Specifically, the Generalized Base Stock (GBS) policy serves as such proof‐of‐concept—it can deliver unlimited ...
