Decision behavior in supply chains with random production yields

Clemens, Josephine - 2017

Dealing with supply risks is one of the challenges of decision makers in supply chains as producing and sourcing become more and more complex. Theoretical research on different types of supply uncertainty as well as their management is well covered. Behavioral aspects in this context, however,...

Karamata Method and the Maximum of Sums of Independent Random Variables

Lucic, Vladimir - 2016

We revisit the classical problem of convergence of the maximum of cumulative sums of IID random variables by introducing ideas from the Karamata's celebrated proof of the Hardy-Littlewood Tauberian Theorem [J. Karamata, Über die Hardy-Littlewoodschen Umkehrungen des Abelschen Stetigkeitssatzes,...

A new approach of stochastic dominance for ranking transformations on the discrete random variable

Gao, Jianwei; Feng, Zhao - 2016

This paper develops some new stochastic dominance (SD) rules for ranking transformations on a random variable, which is … transformation functions and the probability distributions of the random variable. This is different from the existing SD approach … for transformations on the discrete random variable. Finally, a numerical example is provided to show the effectiveness of …

Inference under covariate-Adaptive randomization

Bugni, Federico A.; Canay, Ivan A.; Shaikh, Azeem M. - 2016

This paper studies inference for the average treatment effect in randomized controlled trials with covariate-adaptive randomization. Here, by covariate-adaptive randomization, we mean randomization schemes that first stratify according to baseline covariates and then assign treatment status so...
