In this paper, we present a novel computational framework for portfolio-wide risk management problems where the presence of a potentially large number of risk factors makes traditional numerical techniques ineffective.The new method utilises a coupled system of BSDEs for the valuation...

This methods report describes Mathematica Policy Research’s approach to creating risk-adjustment models using composite measures to profile care delivered to the home- and community-based service (HCBS) population. The composite measures are adaptations of the Agency for Healthcare...

In the district heating system, the AHE (Absorption Heat Exchanger) can transfer the heat of the primary network with a large temperature drop to the secondary network with a small temperature lift in a heating station.
