On optimal allocation of redundancies in random weighted k$$ k $$‐out‐of‐n$$ n $$ systems
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Applied Stochastic Models in Business and Industry"
DOI: 10.1002/asmb.2875
Abstract: Random weighted ‐out‐of‐ systems are very useful in modeling the lifetimes of systems, wherein the success or failure of a system depends not only on its current operational status, but also on the contributions made… read more here.

Optimal Allocation of Observations in Stepped‐Wedge and Other Cluster Studies With Correlated Cluster‐Period Effects
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Statistics in Medicine"
DOI: 10.1002/sim.70100
Abstract: Stepped‐wedge studies usually entail regular sampling of clusters over time. Yet the precision of the treatment effect estimator can sometimes be improved if the regular sampling scheme is replaced by one with preferential allocation of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/sim.9650
Abstract: Cluster‐based outcome‐dependent sampling (ODS) has the potential to yield efficiency gains when the outcome of interest is relatively rare, and resource constraints allow only a certain number of clusters to be visited for data collection.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.electstud.2018.09.010
Abstract: Abstract How should political parties allocate resources in U.S. House elections? Are actual spending strategies optimal? This paper answers these questions by using Bayesian election forecasts to estimate a probabilistic voting model. The model provides… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/asb.2020.6
Abstract: We study a weighted comonotonic risk-sharing problem among multiple agents with distortion risk measures under heterogeneous beliefs. The explicit forms of optimal allocations are obtained, which are Pareto-optimal. A necessary and sufficient condition is given… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s1474747225100103
Abstract: Many countries have implemented a variety of pension reforms in response to the challenges posed by an aging population. These reforms typically involve a trade-off between ‘refinancing’ (i.e., increasing contributions) and ‘retrenchment’ (i.e., reducing benefits).… read more here.
