Decision-making under risk and uncertainty and its application in strategic management

open access: yesJournal of Business Economics and Management, 2014
We introduce a new decision-making model that unifies risk and uncertain environments in the same formulation. For doing so, we present the induced probabilistic ordered weighted averaging (IPOWA) operator.

GENESIS – The GENEric SImulation System for Modelling State Transitions

open access: yesJournal of Open Research Software, 2017
This software implements a discrete time Markov chain model, used to model transitions between states when the transition probabilities are known 'a priori'.

Global Changes in 20‐Year, 50‐Year, and 100‐Year River Floods

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
Concepts like the 100‐year flood event can be misleading if they are not updated to reflect significant changes over time. Here, we model observed annual maximum daily streamflow using a nonstationary approach to provide the first global picture of ...

Monte Carlo transition probabilities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Transition probabilities governing the interaction of energy packets and matter are derived that allow Monte Carlo NLTE transfer codes to be constructed without simplifying the treatment of line formation.

Good Fences Make for Good Neighbors but Bad Science: A Review of What Improves Bayesian Reasoning and Why

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2015
Bayesian reasoning, defined here as the updating of a posterior probability following new information, has historically been problematic for humans. Classic psychology experiments have tested human Bayesian reasoning through the use of word problems and ...

Reduction of uncertainty using adaptive modeling under stochastic criteria of information content

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2023
Entropy is the concepts from the science of information must be used in the situation where undefined behaviors of the parameters are unknown. The behavior of the casual parameters representing the processes under investigation is a problem that the ...

Entrepreneurship and Decision-Making in Latin America

open access: yesInnovar: Revista de Ciencias Administrativas y Sociales, 2014
The principal purpose of this paper is to analyze different methods for decision making, with a focus on entrepreneurship in Latin America. Decision-making methods may be informed by aggregation operators that are based on the use of probabilities ...
