A Scent of Lemon—Seller Meets Buyer with a Noisy Quality Observation

Games, 2011
We consider a market for lemons in which the seller is a monopolistic price setter and the buyer receives a private noisy signal of the product’s quality.

Strategic Behavior of Moralists and Altruists

Games, 2017
Does altruism and morality lead to socially better outcomes in strategic interactions than selfishness? We shed some light on this complex and non-trivial issue by examining a few canonical strategic interactions played by egoists, altruists and ...

Fitting Weibull ACD Models to High Frequency Transactions Data: A Semi-parametric Approach based on Estimating Functions [PDF]

Autoregressive conditional duration (ACD) models play an important role in financial modeling. This paper considers the estimation of the Weibull ACD model using a semi-parametric approach based on the theory of estimating functions (EF). We apply the EF

Weibull or Lognormal Distribution to Characterize Fatigue Life Scatter – Which is More Suitable? – Continued

Fatigue of Aircraft Structures
This paper describes a study to determine whether fatigue test life scatter is best characterised by a Weibull or lognormal statistical distribution for a high strength steel used for landing gear structures. It is a response to “Face 2” of the ICAF 2017

Parameter recovery vs. parameter prediction for the Weibull distribution validated for Scots pine stands in Finland

Silva Fennica, 2013
The moment-based parameter recovery method (PRM) has not been applied in Finland since the 1930s, even after a continuation of forest stand structure modelling in the 1980s.

The offshore access problem and turbine availability : probabilistic modelling of expected delays to repairs

, 2009
Difficulty of access due to adverse sea-state can cause significant delays to operation and maintenance on offshore wind farms, resulting in lost energy production and increased cost of energy.

Generalized Weibull and Inverse Weibull Distributions with Applications

, 2014
In this thesis, new classes of Weibull and inverse Weibull distributions including the generalized new modified Weibull (GNMW), gamma-generalized inverse Weibull (GGIW), the weighted proportional inverse Weibull (WPIW) and inverse new modified Weibull ...

Multivariate semi-Weibull distributions

, 2009
Some multivariate semi-Weibull (denoted by MSW) distributions including the Marshall–Olkin multivariate semi-Weibull (denoted by MO-MSW) one are introduced. They are more general than the multivariate Weibull distributions proposed by Lee [L.
