Decision formation and attention are two fundamental processes through which we select, respectively, appropriate actions or sources of information. Although both functions have been studied in the oculomotor system, we lack a unified view explaining both forms of selection. We review evidence showing that parietal neurons encoding saccade motor decisions also carry signals of attention (percep...

In Learning Using Privileged Information (LUPI) paradigm, along with the standard training data in the decision space, a teacher supplies a learner with the privileged information in the correcting space. The goal of the learner is to find a classifier with a low generalization error in the decision space. We consider an empirical risk minimization algorithm, called Privileged ERM, that takes i...

This paper discusses the definition of the state space and corresponding choice sets that figure in the theory of decision making under uncertainty. It elucidates an approach that overcomes some conceptual difficulties with the standard models and accommodates a procedure for expanding the state space in the wake of growing awareness.

Decision makers often do not easily understand the decision space, i.e. the available alternatives and relations among their attributes. Misunderstanding the relations between attributes might lead to a bad decision. Recent research in decision analysis has addressed this problem and proposed to support decision makers with visual information about the decision space. However, the question of w...

asimulation-optimization approach is proposed for replenishment planning andshelf space allocation. the customers’ demand is divided into fixed andvariable demand. each customer follows a given path while shopping in thestore. by dividing the store space into several zones and calculating therelated substantial and random utilities, an analytical equation is proposedfor the probability of zone ...
