Preponderantly increasing/decreasing data in regression analysis
Abstract. For the given data (wi, xi, yi), i = 1, . . . , n, and the given model function f(x;θ), where θ is a vector of unknown parameters, the goal of regression analysis is to obtain estimator θ∗ of the unknown parameters θ such that the vector of residuals is minimized in some sense. The common approach to this problem of minimization is the least-squares method, that is minimizing the L2 n...
متن کاملIncreasing Operating Room Profits and Decreasing Wait Lists by Use of a Data-Driven Overbooking Model
Background and Objectives: Operating rooms (ORs) are precious resources in hospitals, as they constitute more than 40% of the hospital revenues.As such, surgical cancellations are very costly to hospitals. Same-day surgery cancellations or no-shows were found to be the main contributing factor to underutilization of operating rooms (ORs) in a public-sector hospital despite the ...
متن کاملExplosive evolutionary radiations: decreasing speciation or increasing extinction through time?
A common pattern in time-calibrated molecular phylogenies is a signal of rapid diversification early in the history of a radiation. Because the net rate of diversification is the difference between speciation and extinction rates, such "explosive-early" diversification could result either from temporally declining speciation rates or from increasing extinction rates through time. Distinguishing...
متن کاملDecreasing relative risk premium
We consider the risk premium π demanded by a decision maker with present wealth x in order to be indifferent between obtaining a new level of wealth y1 with certainty, or to participate in a lottery which either results in unchanged wealth x or a level of wealth y2 > y1. We then define the relative risk premium λ as the quotient between π and the increase in wealth y1−x which the decision maker...
متن کاملDecreasing Relative Risk Aversion
The testable implication of the complete risk-sharing hypothesis depends on what is assumed on households' relative risk aversion (RRA) coefficient. We therefore use a hyperbolic absolute risk aversion (HARA) utility function, which includes increasing, constant, and decreasing RRA as special cases, to test this hypothesis. Using household level total non-durable consumption data from Indian vi...
