Cross-cultural comparison of genetic and cultural transmission of smoking initiation using an extended twin kinship model [PDF]
, 2018 Background: Considerable evidence from twin and adoption studies indicates that genetic and shared environmental factors play a role in the initiation of smoking behavior.

Constructions and Properties of Quasi Sigma-Algebra in Topological Measure Space
Axioms, 2022 The topological views of a measure space provide deep insights. In this paper, the sigma-set algebraic structure is extended in a Hausdorff topological space based on the locally compactable neighborhood systems without considering strictly (metrized ...

Zero temperature limits of Gibbs states for almost-additive potentials
, 2013 This paper is devoted to study ergodic optimisation problems for almost-additive sequences of functions (rather than a fixed potential) defined over countable Markov shifts (that is a non-compact space).

Arguments graphiques simples pour comprendre la spécification du modèle d’espérance non additive d’utilité et l’intégrale de Choquet [PDF]
, 1998 Le modèle d’espérance non additive d’utilité ou Choquet Expected Utility (Schmeidler, 1989) est une généralisation du modèle d’espérance d’utilité mettant en oeuvre une mesure de vraisemblance non nécessairement additive et faisant appel au concept d ...

Is additive coding useful for morphological phylogenetic analyses? An empirical evaluation [PDF]
Arthropod Systematics & PhylogenyWe address an old but still controversial question of morphological phylogenetics: whether additive (or ordered) coding is beneficial to properly extracting phylogenetic information from phenotypical variation.

Using Non-Additive Measure for Optimization-Based Nonlinear Classification
, 2012 Over the past few decades, numerous optimization-based methods have been proposed for solving the classification problem in data mining. Classic optimization-based methods do not consider attribute interactions toward classification.

Observable Optimal State Points of Sub-additive Potentials
, 2012 For a sequence of sub-additive potentials, Dai [Optimal state points of the sub-additive ergodic theorem, Nonlinearity, 24 (2011), 1565-1573] gave a method of choosing state points with negative growth rates for an ergodic dynamical system.

EntropyDue to the information non-independence of attributes, combined with a complex and changeable environment, the analysis of risks faces great difficulties. In view of this problem, this paper proposes a new three-way decision-making (3WD) method, combined

A Risk-Based Approach for Asset Allocation with A Defaultable Share
Risks, 2018 This paper presents a novel risk-based approach for an optimal asset allocation problem with default risk, where a money market account, an ordinary share and a defaultable security are investment opportunities in a general non-Markovian economy ...
