Applying Four Different Risk Models in Local Ore Selection
TL;DR: In this paper, a FORTRAN program risksel is presented to calculate local risk-adjusted optimal ore selections using a negative exponential utility function and three dominance models: mean-variance, mean-downside risk, and stochastic dominance.

A Negative Correlation Strategy for Bracketing in Difference-in-Differences with Application to the Effect of Voter Identification Laws on Voter Turnout
TL;DR: This paper proposed a general identification strategy that leverages two groups of control units whose outcomes relative to the treated units exhibit a negative correlation, and achieves partial identification of the average treatment effect for the treated.

Monotonicity-based ranking on the basis of multiple partially specified reciprocal relations
Raúl Pérez-Fernández,Raúl Pérez-Fernández,Michael Rademaker,Pedro Alonso,Irene Díaz,Susana Montes,Bernard De Baets +6 more
TL;DR: A more general setting is considered: each voter is allowed to provide a partially specified reciprocal relation (that may not be monotone) on the unit interval, and new ways of measuring the cost of imposing monotonicity are introduced.

Strategic double cropping on Vertisols: A viable rainfed cropping option in the Indian SAT to increase productivity and reduce risk

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors showed that doubling cropping during the rainy season is technically feasible and that grain productivity of double cropped sorghum + chickpea (SCP-SCP) and mung bean + sorghumm (MS-MS) sequential systems were higher than their conventional counterparts with rainy season fallow.
Journal ArticleDOI
The scorix
TL;DR: An ILP has been proposed in order to select the optimal ranking and it is shown that, in case the scorix is monotone, all existing scoring ranking rules give the same ranking as output.

Theory of Games and Economic Behavior
TL;DR: Theory of games and economic behavior as mentioned in this paper is the classic work upon which modern-day game theory is based, and it has been widely used to analyze a host of real-world phenomena from arms races to optimal policy choices of presidential candidates, from vaccination policy to major league baseball salary negotiations.

Ordered Families of Distributions
TL;DR: In this article, a comparison is made of several definitions of ordered sets of distributions, some of which were introduced earlier by the author [7], [8] and by Rubin [10], and the results are applied to obtaining tests that give a certain guaranteed power with a minimum number of observations.

Dynamic Inventory Policy with Varying Stochastic Demands
TL;DR: In this article, a dynamic inventory model is formulated in which the demand distributions may change from period to period, and the optimal policy at each stage is characterized by a single critical number which also could vary in successive periods.
