Comparison of probability measures: Dominance of the third degree
نویسنده
چکیده
This note provides necessary and su cient conditions for third-degree stochastic dominance between the probability measures on a nite grid of n points. Verifying these conditions involve n linear and n quadratic inequalities; the arithmetic operation of division is not required. The results are compared with those of Fishburn and Lavalle, Math. Operat. Res. 20 (1995) 513–525 and Milne and Neave, Management Sci. 40 (1994) 1343–1352. Finally, the solution to an open problem in Fishburn and Lavalle, Math. Operat. Res. 20 (1995) 513–525 is presented. c © 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Recently, the TODIM$^1$(an acronym in Portuguese of interactive and multi-criteria decision making) method has attracted increasing attention and many researchers have extended it to deal with multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problems under different situations. However, none of them can be used to handle MADM problems with positive, independent, and negative interactions among attribu...

متن کاملON THE CHARACTERISTIC DEGREE OF FINITE GROUPS
In this article we introduce and study the concept of characteristic degree of a subgroup in a finite group. We define the characteristic degree of a subgroup H in a finite group G as the ratio of the number of all pairs (h,α) ∈ H×Aut(G) such that h^α∈H, by the order of H × Aut(G), where Aut(G) is the automorphisms group of G. This quantity measures the probability that H can be characteristic ...
متن کاملComparison of Albizia Julibressin and Silver Sulfadiazine in Healing of Second and Third Degree Burns
BACKGROUND Large numbers of population suffer from burn annually. The promising treatment of burn has not been identified yet. Albizia julibressin (A. julibressin) in Fabaceae family is popular for its antiseptic activity. This prospective study was designed to compare the wound healing effects of A. julibressin gel (AG) with silver sulfadiazine (SSD). METHODS This single blind clinical tria...

The purpose of present study was determination of number changes of mast cells in a honey treated experimental model of third degree burn. A third degree burn was made in 24 adult female rats by direct contact of skin with boiling water for 8 seconds. Rats were divided randomly into four groups. Group 1: Burns of this group remained untreated (control group). Groups 2 and 3: Burns of these grou...
