Suitability of Capital Allocations for Performance Measurement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Capital allocation principles are used in various contexts in which a risk capital or a cost of an aggregate position has to be allocated among its constituent parts. We study capital allocation principles in a performance measurement framework.

Comparison of diagnosis-based risk adjustment methods for episode-based costs to apply in efficiency measurement

open access: yesBMC Health Services Research, 2023
Background The recent rising health spending intrigued efficiency and cost-based performance measures. However, mortality risk adjustment methods are still under consideration in cost estimation, though methods specific to cost estimate have been ...

Extreme risk measurement for the oil and China’s sectors system—network-based approach and machine learning methods

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2023
China is a large oil-consuming country, and sharp fluctuations in oil prices are bound to be detrimental to the stable growth of its economy. Therefore, accurately grasping the impact of the oil market on China’s sectors is the key to ensuring its ...

VR-PMS: a new approach for performance measurement and management of industrial systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A new performance measurement and management framework based on value and risk is proposed. The proposed framework is applied to the modelling and evaluation of the a priori performance evaluation of manufacturing processes and to deciding on their ...

Methods for measuring risk-aversion: problems and solutions [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2013
Risk-aversion is a fundamental parameter determining how humans act when required to operate in situations of risk. Its general applicability has been discussed in a companion presentation, and this paper examines methods that have been used in the past to measure it and their attendant problems.

Policy Gradient Methods for Distortion Risk Measures

open access: yes, 2021
We propose policy gradient algorithms which learn risk-sensitive policies in a reinforcement learning (RL) framework. Our proposed algorithms maximize the distortion risk measure (DRM) of the cumulative reward in an episodic Markov decision process in on-policy and off-policy RL settings, respectively. We derive a variant of the policy gradient theorem

The Midweight Method to Measure Attitudes Toward Risk and Ambiguity [PDF]

open access: yesManagement Science, 2011
This paper introduces a parameter-free method for measuring the weighting functions of prospect theory and rank-dependent utility. These weighting functions capture risk attitudes, subjective beliefs, and ambiguity attitudes. Our method, called the midweight method, is based on a convenient way to obtain midpoints in the weighting function scale.

Capital allocation for credit portfolios with kernel estimators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Determining contributions by sub-portfolios or single exposures to portfolio-wide economic capital for credit risk is an important risk measurement task. Often economic capital is measured as Value-at-Risk (VaR) of the portfolio loss distribution.

A Tractable Method for Measuring Nanomaterial Risk Using Bayesian Networks [PDF]

open access: yesNanoscale Research Letters, 2016
While control banding has been identified as a suitable framework for the evaluation and the determination of potential human health risks associated with exposure to nanomaterials (NMs), the approach currently lacks any implementation that enjoys widespread support.
