The Gaussian Process Modeling Module in UQLab [PDF]
Journal of Soft Computing in Civil Engineering, 2018 We introduce the Gaussian process (GP) modeling module developed within the UQLab software framework. The novel design of the GP-module aims at providing seamless integration of GP modeling into any uncertainty quantification workflow, as well as a ...

Risk, uncertainty, and asset prices [PDF]
Journal of Financial Economics, 2005 We identify the relative importance of changes in the conditional variance of fundamentals (which we call 'uncertainty') and changes in risk aversion ('risk' for short) in the determination of the term structure, equity prices, and risk premiums ...

Risk and uncertainty in health investment [PDF]
The European Journal of Health Economics, 2010 Extending the Grossman (J Polit Econ 80:223-255, 1972) model of health capital into a stochastic one, we analyze how the presence of Knightian uncertainty about the efficacy of health care affects the optimal health investment behavior of individuals. Using Gilboa and Schmeidler's (J Math Econ 18:141-153, 1989) model of max/min expected utility (MMEU ...
