Microeconomic Theory and the Kullback-Liebler Discrepancy: Some Remarkable Connections

Using a well-known utility of wealth function, the classic contingent claims model is shown to produce measures of expected wealth, certainty equivalence, gains from trade, and risk premia with relative entropy interpretations, as measured by the KullbackLiebler discrepancy. Author

Tests for stochastic orders and mean order statistics

The aim of this note is to emphasize the fact, not observed previously in the literature, that many discrepancy measures used in tests related to different stochastic orders can be expressed as expectations of order statistics. In this way, we provide a new meaning to the corresponding test statistics which allows us to understand better, and potentially improve, the testing procedures. As illu...

Predictive Displays

Inexperienced helmsmen often oversteer because of the lag that occurs between changing the rudder angle and a change in the vessel’s heading. Predictive displays are a common way of mitigating the effect of lag on human control. Accordingly we developed a predictive display to show the position and heading of a vessel a short time in the future. With this display, the helmsman’s task becomes th...
