Axiomatization of an exponential similarity function
An agent is asked to assess a real-valued variable y based on certain characteristics x = (x1, ..., xm), and on a database consisting of n observations of (x1, ..., xm, y). A possible approach to combine past observations of x and y with the current values of x to generate an assessment of y is similarity-weighted averaging. It suggests that the predicted value of y, ys n+1, be the weighted ave...
متن کاملAn axiomatization of success
In this paper we give an axiomatic characterization of three families of measures of success de ned by Laruelle and Valenciano (2005) for voting rules. Key words: collective decision-making, voting rules, axiomatization 1. Introduction The aim of this paper is to provide an axiomatization of the measures of success in voting rules. We look for a set of axioms, that is, assumptions that, whateve...
متن کاملSome tight polynomial-exponential lower bounds for an exponential function
This note is devoted to new sharp lower bounds for exp(x). We first introduce and study a new lower bound defined with polynomial of degree 2 and exponential (or hyperbolic) functions. Then we propose two improvements of this lower bound by using two different approaches; the first approach consists in adding well-chosen polynomial term to it, whereas the second approach aims to transform it fo...
متن کاملAn axiomatization and a tableau calculus for the logic of comparative concept similarity
Résumé : La logique de similarité comparative des concepts CSL a été introduite en 2005 par Shremet, Tishkowsky, Wolter et Zakharyaschev pour représenter des informations qualitatives sur la similarité entre des concepts, du type “A est plus similaire à B qu’à C”. La sémantique utilise des espaces de distances afin de représenter le degré de similarité entre objets du domaine. Dans cet article,...
متن کاملAn Axiomatization of Naive Diversification
A widely applied diversification paradigm is the naive diversification choice heuristic. It stipulates that an economic agent allocates equal decision weights to given choice alternatives independent of their individual characteristics. This article provides mathematically and economically sound choice theoretic foundations for the naive approach to diversification. We axiomatize naive diversif...
