Optimal dynamic risk sharing when enforcement is a decision variable
Societies provide institutions that are costly to set up, but able to enforce longrun relationships. We study the optimal decision problem of using self-governance for risk sharing or governance through enforcement provided by these institutions. Third-party enforcement is modelled as a costly technology that consumes resources, but permits the punishment of agents who deviate from ex-ante spec...
متن کاملInterior Point Methods for Optimal Experimental Designs
In this paper, we propose a primal IP method for solving the optimal experimental design problem with a large class of smooth convex optimality criteria, including A-, Dand pth mean criterion, and establish its global convergence. We also show that the Newton direction can be computed efficiently when the size of the moment matrix is small relative to the sample size. We compare our IP method w...
متن کاملSome Optimal Codes From Designs
The binary and ternary codes spanned by the rows of the point by block incidence matrices of some 2-designs and their complementary and orthogonal designs are studied. A new method is also introduced to study optimal codes.
متن کاملSimultaneous marginal survival estimators when doubly censored data is present.
A doubly censoring scheme occurs when the lifetimes T being measured,from a well-known time origin, are exactly observed within a window [L, R] of observational time and are otherwise censored either from above (right-censored observations)or below (left-censored observations). Sample data consists on the pairs (U, δ)where U = min{R, max{T, L}} and δ indicates whether T is exactly observed (δ =...
متن کاملExperimental personality designs: analyzing categorical by continuous variable interactions.
Theories hypothesizing interactions between a categorical and one or more continuous variables are common in personality research. Traditionally, such hypotheses have been tested using nonoptimal adaptations of analysis of variance (ANOVA). This article describes an alternative multiple regression-based approach that has greater power and protects against spurious conclusions concerning the imp...
