Reinforcement Learning in POMDPs With Memoryless Options and Option-Observation Initiation Sets

open access: yesProceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2018
Many real-world reinforcement learning problems have a hierarchical nature, and often exhibit some degree of partial observability. While hierarchy and partial observability are usually tackled separately (for instance by combining recurrent neural networks and options), we show that addressing both problems simultaneously is simpler ...

Context-dependent choice and evaluation in real-world consumer behavior

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
A body of work spanning neuroscience, economics, and psychology indicates that decision-making is context-dependent, which means that the value of an option depends not only on the option in question, but also on the other options in the choice set—or ...

INFERENCE FOR OPTION PANELS IN PURE-JUMP SETTINGS [PDF]

open access: yesEconometric Theory, 2018
We develop parametric inference procedures for large panels of noisy option data in a setting, where the underlying process is of pure-jump type, i.e., evolves only through a sequence of jumps. The panel consists of options written on the underlying asset with a (different) set of strikes and maturities available across the observation times.

Multicriteria analysis of log-set strata closures to reduce the mexican tuna fishery incidental catch

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2002
 Concordance analysis, a multicriteria technique, was used as a decision-making tool. To exemplify the use of this tool, five closure options were evaluated to decrease incidental catch of mahi-mahi or dolphin-fish, Coryphaena spp., by the Mexican ...

A comparative analysis of 2-option and 3-option response formats for computerized work aptitude test [PDF]

open access: yesSHS Web of Conferences
This study aims to identify the optimal response format for a work aptitude test by evaluating its psychometric properties. This study employed a quantitative, quasi-experimental method utilizing a post-test only control group design.

Abnormal returns, risk, and options in large data sets [PDF]

open access: yesStatistica Neerlandica, 1998
Large data sets in finance with millions of observations have become widely available. Such data sets enable the construction of reliable semi‐parametric estimates of the risk associated with extreme price movements. Our approach is based on semi‐parametric statistical extreme value analysis, and compares favorably with the conventional finance normal ...

Life Cycle Assessment: A Tool for Evaluating and Comparing Different Treatment Options for Plastic Wastes from Old Television Sets

open access: yesData Science Journal, 2007
In the present work, energy recovery and mechanical recycling, two treatment options for plastic wastes from discarded television sets, have been assessed and compared in the context of the life cycle assessment methodology (LCA).

A fuzzy approach to option pricing in a Levy process setting [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, 2013
Abstract In this paper the problem of European option valuation in a Levy process setting is analysed. In our model the underlying asset follows a geometric Levy process. The jump part of the log-price process, which is a linear combination of Poisson processes, describes upward and downward jumps in price.
