Priority theory and utility theory

open access: yesMathematical Modelling, 1987
The first axiom of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) states that the pairwise comparison judgements are reciprocal. Here we explore the relationships between the reciprocal property and preference relations with and without the axiom of transitivity and point out some important distinctions between utility theory and the AHP.

Utility-Based Utility [PDF]

open access: yes
A major virtue of von Neumann-Morgenstern utilities, for example, in the theory of general financial equilibrium (GFE), is that they ensure time consistency: consumption-portfolio plans (for the future) are in fact executed (in the future) — assuming ...

Identification of serum protein biomarkers for pre‐cancerous lesions associated with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This work identified serum proteins associated with pancreatic epithelial neoplasms (PanINs) and early‐stage PDAC. Proteomics screens assessed genetically engineered mice with abundant PanINs, KPC mice (Lox‐STOP‐Lox‐KrasG12D/+ Lox‐STOP‐Lox‐Trp53R172H/+ Pdx1‐Cre) before PDAC development and also early‐stage PDAC patients (n = 31), compared to benign ...

Disposition Effect on Two Classical Expected Utility Models:\ud Exponential and Power [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A disposition effect is the observation that investors tend to sell winning stocks too early and hold losing stocks too long. In this paper, we investigate whether expected utility theory explains the disposition effect.

Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

Cumulative Prospect Theory for Parametric and Multiattribute Utilities [PDF]

open access: yes
In cumulative prospect theory models, different behavior concerning gains and losses is per-mitted. For gains different decision weights are assigned than for losses, and the shape of utility can reveal loss aversion.

Targeted modulation of IGFL2‐AS1 reveals its translational potential in cervical adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cervical adenocarcinoma patients face worse outcomes than squamous cell carcinoma counterparts despite similar treatment. The identification of IGFL2‐AS1's differential expression provides a molecular basis for distinguishing these histotypes, paving the way for personalized therapies and improved survival in vulnerable populations globally.

TWO-STAGE UTILITY MAXIMIZATION AND IMPORT DEMAND SYSTEMS REVISITED: LIMITATIONS AND AN ALTERNATIVE [PDF]

open access: yes
Two-stage utility maximization theory has been widely used in the literature to estimate import demand for agricultural commodities that are often inputs.

Network divergence analysis identifies adaptive gene modules and two orthogonal vulnerability axes in pancreatic cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.

Multiple Priors And No-Transaction Region [PDF]

open access: yes
We study single period asset allocation problems of the investor who maximizes the expected utility with respect to non-additive beliefs. The non-additive beliefs of the investor model the presence of an uncertainty and they are assumed to be consistent ...
