Bayesian robustness for decision making problems: Applications in medical contexts
Practical implementation of Bayesian decision making is hindered by the fact that optimal decisions may be sensitive to the model inputs: the prior, the likelihood and/or the underlying utility function. Given the structure of a problem, the analyst has to decide which sensitivity measures are relevant and compute them efficiently. We address the issue of robustness of the optimal action in a d...
متن کاملBayesian Updating: A Framework for Understanding Medical Decision Making
Beliefs are a fundamental component of our daily decisions, and as such, beliefs about our health have a huge impact on our health behaviors. Poor medication adherence is a welldocumented problem and while it has been extensively researched, it has yet to be addressed using a Bayesian framework. This study aims to use a mixture model to understand belief updating as it affects decision making. ...
متن کاملn-Valued Refined Neutrosophic Soft Sets and their Applications in Decision Making Problems and Medical Diagnosis
In this work we use the concept of a n-valued refined neutrosophic soft sets and its properties to solve decision making problems, Also a similarity measure between two n-valued refined neutrosophic soft sets are proposed. A medical diagnosis (MD) method is established for n-valued refined neutrosophic soft set setting using similarity measures. Lastly a numerical example is given to demonstrat...
متن کاملA Bayesian analysis of human decision-making on bandit problems
The bandit problem is a dynamic decision-making task that is simply described, well-suited to controlled laboratory study, and representative of a broad class of real-world problems. In bandit problems, people must choose between a set of alternatives, each with different unknown reward rates, to maximize the total reward they receive over a fixed number of trials. A key feature of the task is ...
متن کاملFuzzy Logic, Informativeness and Bayesian Decision-Making Problems
This paper develops a category-theoretic approach to uncertainty, informativeness and decision-making problems. It is based on appropriate first order fuzzy logic in which not only logical connectives but also quantifiers have fuzzy interpretation. It is shown that all fundamental concepts of probability and statistics such as joint distribution, conditional distribution, etc., have meaningful ...
