Retaining, and Enhancing, the QALY
quality-of-life impacts, the quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) has beenwidely recognized and endorsed [1–3].The US Panel on Cost-Effectiveness in Health and Medicinerecommended the QALY for “reference case” analyses [2]. TheUK National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE)regularly uses QALYs in its technology appraisals [3 ...

A QALY loss is a QALY loss is a QALY loss: a note on independence of loss aversion from health states [PDF]
Evidence has accumulated documenting loss aversion for monetary and, recently, for health outcomes-meaning that, generally, losses carry more weight than equally sized gains. In the conventional Quality-Adjusted Life Year (QALY) models, which comprise utility for quality and length of life, loss aversion is not taken into account.

Factorization machine with iterative quantum reverse annealing (FMIRA) leverages quantum reverse annealing to perform batch black‐box optimization. Factorization machine with quantum annealing (FMQA) is a widely used python package for solving black‐box optimization problems using D‐Wave quantum annealers.

Counting QALYs (quality adjusted life years) has been proposed as a way of deciding how resources should be distributed in the health service: put resources where they will produce the most QALYs. This proposal has encountered strong opposition.

A Comprehensive Comparative Study of Active Learning Schemes for Nanophotonics Design
Active learning (AL) strategies are benchmarked for the binary design of planar multilayer nanophotonic structures. Factorization machines combined with quantum annealing (QA) become effective as dimensionality increases. Hybrid QA provides the strongest results for 100‐layer problems, highlighting the importance of optimization method selection in ...

A new axiomatic approach to the evaluation of population health [PDF]
We explore in this paper the implications of ethical and operational principles for the evaluation of population health. We formalize those principles as axioms for social preferences over distributions of health for a given population.

An agentic AI‐driven decision‐support framework for prosumers is proposed, integrating PV generation, load profiling, and multihorizon optimization within a four‐agent architecture. The approach significantly reduces grid dependence, enhances self‐sufficiency and prevents system oversizing.
