Optimal Reinsurance to Minimize the Probability of Drawdown under the Mean-Variance Premium Principle: Asymptotic Analysis [PDF]
, 2023 In this paper, we consider an optimal reinsurance problem to minimize the probability of drawdown for the scaled Cram´er-Lundberg risk model when the reinsurance premium is computed according to the mean-variance premium principle.

Justifying Definitions in Mathematics—Going Beyond Lakatos [PDF]
, 2009 This paper addresses the actual practice of justifying definitions in mathematics. First, I introduce the main account of this issue, namely Lakatos's proof-generated definitions.

Cultural Influences in Probabilistic Thinking
, 2012 Concerns about students' difficulties in statistics and probability and a lack of research in this area outside of western countries led to a case study which explored form five (14 to 16 year olds) students' ideas in this area.

, 2016 It is natural to think that the most basic questions in ethical theory do not have much to do with probability. Given answers to these questions, we can try to extend them to cases involving probability, though this job might best be handled by more ...

Multiple perspectives on the concept of conditional probability [PDF]
, 2012 Conditional probability is a key to the subjectivist theory of probability; however, it plays a subsidiary role in the usual conception of probability where its counterpart, namely independence is of basic importance.

The probability of generating a finite simple group
, 2013 We study the probability of generating a finite simple group, together with its generalisation PG,socG(d), the conditional probability of generating an almost simple finite group G by d elements, given that these elements generate G/ socG.

Quantifying the Impact of Ocrelizumab on Paramagnetic Rim Lesions in Multiple Sclerosis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Paramagnetic rim lesions (PRLs) are a subset of chronic active multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions marked by iron‐laden microglia and macrophages. Ocrelizumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting CD20+ B cells, suppresses acute MS activity, but its effect on PRLs remains unclear. In a longitudinal study of 29 ocrelizumab‐treated patients with at least

A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...
