Scheduling Major League Baseball Umpires and the Traveling Umpire Problem
The scheduling needs of umpires and referees differ from the needs of sports teams. In some sports leagues, such as Major League Baseball in the United States, umpires travel throughout the league’s territory; they do not have a “home base.” For such leagues, balancing the need to minimize umpire travel and the objective that an umpire should not handle the games of a particular team too freque...
متن کاملCallSim: Evaluation of Base Calls Using Sequencing Simulation
Accurate base calls generated from sequencing data are required for downstream biological interpretation, particularly in the case of rare variants. CallSim is a software application that provides evidence for the validity of base calls believed to be sequencing errors and it is applicable to Ion Torrent and 454 data. The algorithm processes a single read using a Monte Carlo approach to sequenc...
متن کاملa study on rate making and required reserves determination in reinsurance market: a simulation
reinsurance is widely recognized as an important instrument in the capital management of an insurance company as well as its risk management tool. this thesis is intended to determine premium rates for different types of reinsurance policies. also, given the fact that the reinsurance coverage of every company depends upon its reserves, so different types of reserves and the method of their calc...
Bias in Judgment: Comparing Individuals and Groups
The relative susceptibility of individuals and groups to systematic judgmental biases is considered. An overview of the relevant empirical literature reveals no clear or general pattern. However, a theoretical analysis employing J. H. Davis's (1973) social decision scheme (SDS) model reveals that the relative magnitude of individual and group bias depends upon several factors, including group s...
