Evaluation of confidence intervals for the kappa statistic when the assumption of marginal homogeneity is violated

Parpia, Sameer; Koval, John; Donner, Allan - In: Computational Statistics 28 (2013) 6, pp. 2709-2718

This article studies the robustness of confidence interval construction for the intraclass kappa statistic based on a dichotomous response when the assumption of marginal homogeneity across two raters is violated. Two methods of construction are considered: the goodness-of-fit approach and the...

The selective pickup and delivery problem: Formulation and a memetic algorithm

Ting, Chuan-Kang; Liao, Xin-Lan - In: International Journal of Production Economics 141 (2013) 1, pp. 199-211

The pickup and delivery problem addresses the real-world issues in logistic industry and establishes an important category of vehicle routing problems. The problem is to find the shortest route to collect and distribute commodities under the assumption that the total supply and the total demand...

Costly information and the evolution of self-organization in a small, complex economy

Wilson, James; Hill, J.; Kersula, M.; Wilson, C.L.; … - In: Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization 90 (2013) S, pp. 76-76

The core idea of evolution is that order in living systems emerges from a simple process of variation and selection. In biological systems we usually understand the source of variation as best described by the mechanisms of genetics. If human social systems are evolutionary systems, however, it...

Congestion pricing and long term urban form: Application to Paris region

De Lara, Michel; de Palma, André; Kilani, Moez; … - In: Regional Science and Urban Economics 43 (2013) 2, pp. 282-295

We propose an efficient algorithm that solves urban equilibrium with traffic congestion. The procedure we propose is based on the monocentric model, but we illustrate how it can be used in the case of more than one business center. As a case study we focus on the region of Paris and discuss the...
