On the Equivalence of Optimality Design Criteria for the Placebo-Treatment Problem

Wong, Weng Kee; Dette, Holger; Zhu, Wei - 2004

We consider a class of optimality criteria and show that each crite- rion has its unique and equivalent dual within the class. This property can be used to find a variety of optimal designs, including a class of compound optimal designs and their relationships. As an example, we show that one...

Cost Sharing under Uncertainty: An Algorithmic Approach to Cooperative Interval-Valued Games

Kimms, Alf; Drechsel, Julia - In: BuR - Business Research 2 (2009) 2, pp. 206-213

Recently, Branzei, Dimitrov, and Tijs (2003) introduced cooperative interval-valued games. Among other insights, the notion of an interval core has been coined and proposed as a solution concept for interval-valued games. In this paper we will present a general mathematical programming algorithm...

An Experimental Study of the POUM Hypothesis

Checchi, Daniele; Filippin, Antonio - 2003

period and individuals are not too risk averse. This paper tests the POUM hypothesis by means of a within subjects experiment … inequality aversion are (partially) controlled for via either the experiment design or the information collected during the … experiment. We find that the POUM hypothesis holds under alternative specifications, even when we control for individual fixed …

Causes, consequences, and cures of myopic loss aversion: An experimental investigation

Fellner, Gerlinde; Sutter, Matthias - 2005

Myopic loss aversion (MLA) has been established as one prominent explanation for the equity premium puzzle. In this paper we address two issues related to the effects of MLA on risky investment decisions. First, we assess the relative impact of feedback frequency and investment flexibility (via...

Reciprocity and emotions when reciprocators know each other

Reuben, Ernesto; van Winden, Frans - 2006

This is an experimental study of a three-player power-to-take game where a take authority is matched with two responders. The game consists of two stages. In the first stage, the take authority decides how much of the endowment of each responder that is left after the second stage will be...

Lasso-type and heuristic strategies in model selection and forecasting

Savin, Ivan; Winker, Peter - 2012

Several approaches for subset recovery and improved forecasting accuracy have been proposed and studied. One way is to apply a regularization strategy and solve the model selection task as a continuous optimization problem. One of the most popular approaches in this research field is given by...

DEA problems under geometrical or probability uncertainties of sample data

Althaler, Karl S.; Slavova, Tatjana - 2000

This paper discusses the theoretical and practical aspects of new methods for solving DEA problems under real-life geometrical uncertainty and probability uncertainty of sample data. The proposed minimax approach to solve problems with geometrical uncertainty of sample data involves an...

The method of endogenous gridpoints for solving dynamic stochastic optimization problems

Carroll, Christopher D. - 2005

This paper introduces a method for solving numerical dynamic stochastic optimization problems that avoids rootfinding operations. The idea is applicable to many microeconomic and macroeconomic problems, including life cycle, buffer-stock, and stochastic growth problems. Software is provided.
