Adversarial Learning for Incentive Optimization in Mobile Payment Marketing [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Many payment platforms hold large-scale marketing campaigns, which allocate incentives to encourage users to pay through their applications. To maximize the return on investment, incentive allocations are commonly solved in a two-stage procedure. After training a response estimation model to estimate the users' mobile payment probabilities (MPP), a ...

Uncertainty-Aware Task Allocation for Distributed Autonomous Robots [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 This paper addresses task-allocation problems with uncertainty in situational awareness for distributed autonomous robots (DARs). The uncertainty propagation over a task-allocation process is done by using the Unscented transform that uses the Sigma-Point sampling mechanism.

PLoS ONE, 2020 Umbrella trials have been suggested to increase trial conduct efficiency when investigating different biomarker-driven experimental therapies. An overarching platform is used for patient screening and subsequent subtrial allocation according to patients'

Improving the Power of the Randomization Test [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 We consider the problem of evaluating designs for a two-arm randomized experiment with the criterion being the power of the randomization test for the one-sided null hypothesis. Our evaluation assumes a response that is linear in one observed covariate, an unobserved component and an additive treatment effect where the only randomness comes from the ...

Ordinality in Random Allocation
In allocating objects via lotteries, it is common to consider ordinal rules that rely solely on how agents rank degenerate lotteries. While ordinality is often imposed due to cognitive or informational constraints, we provide another justification from an axiomatic perspective: for three-agent problems, the combination of efficiency, strategy-proofness,

The power of thinning in balanced allocation [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Balls are sequentially allocated into $n$ bins as follows: for each ball, an independent, uniformly random bin is generated. An overseer may then choose to either allocate the ball to this bin, or else the ball is allocated to a new independent uniformly random bin.

Application of Dynamic Linear Models to Random Allocation Clinical Trials with Covariates [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 A recent method using Dynamic Linear Models to improve preferred treatment allocation budget in random allocation models was proposed by Lee, Boone, et al (2020). However this model failed to include the impact covariates such as smoking, gender, etc, had on model performance. The current paper addresses random allocation to treatments using the DLM in

ON SOME ASPECTS OF DEVELOPMENT OF THE GENERALISED ALLOCATION SCHEME
Transactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2019 In this paper we make an attempt to portray the current situation in the probabilistic combinatorics field where so-called generalised allocation scheme has been utilised. We offer a series of limit theorems for sums of independent identicallydistributed
