Learning cost-sensitive diagnostic policies from data

Creator:: Zubek, Valentina Bayer
Abstract:: In its simplest form, the process of diagnosis is a decision-making process in which the diagnostician performs a sequence of tests culminating in a diagnostic decision. For example, a physician might perform a series of simple measurements (body tem- perature, weight, etc.) and laboratory measurements (white blood count, CT scan,...

Exact welfare measurement: theory and application to recreation economics

Creator:: Niklitschek, Mario E.
Abstract:: Although the limitations of consumer surplus have become widely known, there exists a lack of studies which present in a coherent framework recent developments in estimating Hicksian welfare measures. This study attempts to fill partially this gap by analyzing some theoretical and empirical aspects in the estimation of exact welfare...

Economic evaluation of projects and policies affecting anadromous fish : a simulation approach

Creator:: Hastie, James D.
Abstract:: Anadromous fish populations in the Pacific Northwest have undergone substantial change throughout the past century. Historical periods of over-harvest and the construction of numerous dams throughout the region have contributed to declines in the runs of naturally spawning stocks. Management efforts to rebuild fish populations have focused on the restriction...

Predicted economic effects of environmental quality control policies on linear firm models and an application to an irrigated farm model

Creator:: Clark, Richard T.
Abstract:: Linear economic models were utilized to predict effects of various environmental control policies on individual firms. Four different linear models were specified and in some instances relatively minor changes in specification were made which resulted in additional sub-models. Models varied as to numbers and types of fixed factors, variable cost...

A comparison of box-cox and additive exponential models to estimate the depreciation of farm machinery

Creator:: Wu, Jing
Abstract:: Farm machinery continues to increase in its importance to the agricultural sector. Depreciation, the decline in value of a durable asset over time, represents one of the largest costs of agricultural production. The general objectives of this study were to update and expand the number of Remaining Value (RV) functions...

An evaluation of alternative estimates of demand for and benefits from Oregon salmon sport fishing

Creator:: Hsiao, Ching-kai
Abstract:: The main objective of this study was to estimate the demand for and net economic benefits from Oregon salmon sport fishing. The travel cost method was used as the primary technique for demand analysis. Several empirical estimates of consumer surplus per trip and per fish were obtained from different estimation...

Risk modeling using direct solution of expected utility maximization problems

Creator:: Lambert, David K.
Abstract:: A model of agricultural decision making is developed and tested in this thesis. The expected value of utility evaluated under alternative outcomes is directly maximized in a nonlinear programming model. Two features of the model distinguished it from traditional risk programming models. First, alternative attitudes towards the assumption of risk...
