Reliable route guidance: A case study from Chicago

TL;DR: Numerical experiments demonstrate that optimal paths are substantially affected by the reliability requirement in rush hours, and that reliable route guidance could generate up to 5–15% of travel time savings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prospect and Markowitz Stochastic Dominance

TL;DR: In this article, the authors extend Levy and Levy's Prospect Stochastic Dominance theory (PSD) to the first three orders and link the corresponding S-shaped and reverse Sshaped utility functions to the expected utility paradigm.

Miloš Kopa, +1 more
- 01 Jan 2008 - 
TL;DR: A new linear programming second-order stochastic dominance (SSD) portfolio efficiency test for portfolios with scenario approach for distribution of outcomes and a new SSD portfolio inefficiency measure that is convex is introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stochastic Dominance and Mutual Fund Performance

TL;DR: The authors applied first-, second-, and third-degree stochastic dominance principles to investigate the same question and found that mutual fund performance was inferior to market performance over the period 1954-1963.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mixed forests and finance — Methodological approaches

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed various possibilities to assess portfolios of tree species, namely, the mean-variance (MV) approach applied for the selection of optimal portfolios, the second order stochastic dominance (SSD) criterion and the information-gap approach.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
