Natural selection. I. Variable environments and uncertain returns on investment.
Many studies have analysed how variability in reproductive success affects fitness. However, each study tends to focus on a particular problem, leaving unclear the overall structure of variability in populations. This fractured conceptual framework often causes particular applications to be incomplete or improperly analysed. In this article, I present a concise introduction to the two key aspec...
متن کاملReflections on Bandit Problems and Selection Methods in Uncertain Environments
The behavior of selection methods used in evolutionary algorithms that operate in uncertain environments is investigated in the framework of parametric two{armed bandit problems. Asymptotically optimal selection strategies are based on the sequential probability ratio test which i s p r o ved to perform up to four times better than analogous strategies based on the optimal xed size sample test....
متن کاملFinancing constraints and returns on Physical investment
Using an intertemporal model of investment decisions under financing constraints we show that the Euler equation approach can be used to identify the effect of financing constraints on investment returns even when the premium on external financing does not change over time. This result is made possible by the introduction of a tangibility constraint to a commonly used dynamic optimization model...
متن کاملA novel risk definition for portfolio selection with uncertain returns
Portfolio selection is concerned with optimization of capital allocation to a large number of securities. In portfolio selection, risk analysis is one of the most important topics and research on quantitative definition of risk remains core of the topic. This paper proposes a novel risk definition for portfolio selection with uncertain returns. A risk curve is introduced and a new safe criterio...
متن کاملMean-TVaR Model for Portfolio Selection with Uncertain Returns
The mean-variance model proposed by Markowitz has received greatly acceptance as a practical methodology to manage portfolio selection, and has been widely extended in a variety of literatures. The aim of this paper is to extend the mean-variance model in uncertain decision systems. We present a new mean-TVaR model for portfolio selection when the returns of securities are described as uncertai...
