The Cost of Optimally Acquired Information

Subjects: information acquisition

description: This paper develops a theory for the expected cost of optimally acquired information when information can be acquired sequentially and there is no explicit cost of delay. We study the “reduced-form” Indirect Cost functions for information generated by sequential minimization of a “primitive” Direct Cost function. The class of Indirect Costs is characterized by a recursive condition called Sequential Learning-Proofness. This condition is inconsistent with Prior Invariance: Indirect Costs must depend on the decision-maker’s prior beliefs. We show that Sequential Learning-Proofness provides partial optimality foundations for the Uniformly Posterior Separable (UPS) cost functions used in the rational inattention literature: a cost function is UPS if and only if it is an Indirect Cost that (i) satisfies a mild regularity condition or, equivalently, (ii) is generated (only) by Direct Costs for which the op timal sequential strategy involves observing only Gaussian diffusion signals. We characterize the unique UPS cost function that is generated by a Prior-Invariant Direct Cost; it exists only when there are exactly two states. We also propose two specific UPS cost functions based on additional optimality principles. We introduce and characterize Total Information as the unique Indirect Cost that is Process Invariant when information can be decomposed both sequentially and “simultaneously”: it is uniquely invariant to the “merging” and “splitting” of experiments. Under regularity conditions, Mutual Information is the unique Indirect Cost that is Compression-Invariant when as pects of the state space can be “freely ignored”: it is uniquely invariant to the “merging” and “splitting” of states. We argue that Total Information and Mutual Information represent the normatively ideal costs of, respectively, “producing” and “processing” information.
Effects of different schedules and availability of answers on learning
Creators: name: Kokoskin, William Joseph Alexander
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This study was motivated by the author's belief both as a teacher and researcher that the method of presenting answers to students who are in the process of learning is important to their learning. The two main variables studied were the availability of answers and the proportion of answers. A basic 3x2 factorial design was used with two levels of availability: 1) available 2) non-available and three levels of proportion of answers 1) 80% of the answers given 2) 20% incorrect answers given 3) all the answers given. Two topics, solving equations of the first degree and simplifying exponential expressions were used as the subject material. Four grade eleven classes were given instruction and then pretested on the particular topic. Then the six treatments were randomly assigned in a stratified way and the students proceeded to the exercises pertaining to the particular topic. A posttest was administered after a particular topic was completed. Then the students were re-assigned topics while maintaining their same treatment. The students followed the same procedure as above of lecture, pretest, exercises and posttest. An analysis of co-variance was calculated on each of the groups according to topic, order of unit, and particular group. The pretest was covaried on the posttest. Students were also asked to rank-order their preference for answer sheets or treatments. The results indicated that the availability factor had no statistically significant effect on the student's performance on any topic although the students favored the non-available answers. The results also showed that the students who were given 80% of the answers and those who were given 2 0% incorrect answers, performed better than the group who was given all the answers. This was statistically significant with the group who followed the sequence solving equations of the first degree then simplifying exponential expressions and only pertained to the simplifying of exponential expressions. The results were discussed in terms of the particular topics involved and the variables that were under study. Suggestions for further studies were made in terms of the results of this study.

description: Elevated government debt in the wake of unprecedented stimulus packages increasingly raise concerns about a looming return of inflation, as governments may be tempted to monetize debt. In this paper, we examine optimal debt management in the presence of inflation concerns in a setting where i) the government can issue long-term nominal and real (TIPS) bonds, ii) the monetary authority sets short-term interest rates according to a Taylor rule, and iii) inflation has real costs as prices are sticky. Nominal debt can be inflated away, but bond prices reflect elevated inflation expectations. Real bond prices are higher, but such debt constitutes a real commitment ex post. We show that the optimal government debt portfolio includes a substantial allocation to real bonds, which lowers inflation levels, inflation volatility, and inflation persistence in equilibrium. The associated lower inflation risk premia are reflected in welfare gains through real debt management. Quantitatively, our results are stronger i) the higher the initial debt level, and ii) the longer debt maturity. Our results hold up when accounting for frictions in the TIPS market, such as illiquidity. Our findings suggest that TIPS should be an important tool for debt management in the presence of looming inflation.

description: A growing number of educational institutions use centralized assignment mechanisms to allocate students into programs in a way that reflects student preferences and institution priorities. When the choice set of students is constrained, being truthful is no longer a weakly dominant strategy for students, so they may decide to be strategic. In this paper, we provide an identification approach to construct informative sharp bounds on the effect of the program-institution of graduation on later outcomes when students are not necessarily truth-tellers but are still playing undominated strategies.

Complexity and Choice

Subjects: economics

description: We study two dimensions of complexity that may interfere with individual choice. The first one is object complexity, which corresponds to the difficulty in evaluating any given alternative in a choice set. The second dimension is composition complexity, which increases when suboptimal alternatives become more similar to optimal ones. We develop a satisficing-with-evaluation-errors theory that incorporates both dimensions and delivers sharp empirical predictions about their effect on choice behavior. We confirm these predictions in a novel data set with information on hundreds of millions of decisions in chess endgames. First, as the object complexity of an optimal (suboptimal) alternative increases, it becomes less (more) likely to be chosen. Second, even highly experienced decision-makers are more likely to make mistakes when choosing from sets with higher composition complexity. These findings help to shed some of the first light on the effect of complexity on choice behavior outside of the laboratory.
Finite sample approximation results for principal component analysis: a matrix perturbation approach

description: Principal component analysis (PCA) is a standard tool for dimensional reduction of a set of $n$ observations (samples), each with $p$ variables. In this paper, using a matrix perturbation approach, we study the nonasymptotic relation between the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of PCA computed on a finite sample of size $n$, and those of the limiting population PCA as $n\to\infty$. As in machine learning, we present a finite sample theorem which holds with high probability for the closeness between the leading eigenvalue and eigenvector of sample PCA and population PCA under a spiked covariance model. In addition, we also consider the relation between finite sample PCA and the asymptotic results in the joint limit $p,n\to\infty$, with $p/n=c$. We present a matrix perturbation view of the "phase transition phenomenon," and a simple linear-algebra based derivation of the eigenvalue and eigenvector overlap in this asymptotic limit. Moreover, our analysis also applies for finite $p,n$ where we show that although there is no sharp phase transition as in the infinite case, either as a function of noise level or as a function of sample size $n$, the eigenvector of sample PCA may exhibit a sharp "loss of tracking," suddenly losing its relation to the (true) eigenvector of the population PCA matrix. This occurs due to a crossover between the eigenvalue due to the signal and the largest eigenvalue due to noise, whose eigenvector points in a random direction.

Effect of guidance on learning in independent study
Creators: name: Kotaska, Janelyn Gail
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The recent proliferation of individual methods of learning in continuing education coupled with the lack of research related to instructional methodology led to this investigation of the effect of guidance on the learning of adults using an independent learning packet. The present study tested two hypotheses: 1. Mean scores on a criterion post-test will be significantly higher for two groups who receive an independent learning packet than for a control group receiving no instruction. 2. Mean scores on a criterion post-test will be significantly higher for a group receiving an independent learning packet including a study guide than for a group receiving the same independent learning packet without a study guide. Thirty-five Registered Nurses volunteered to study an independent learning packet entitled "Meeting the Emotional Needs of the Hospitalized Preschool Child", and twenty-one nurses were obtained for the control group. The post-test only control group design consisted of eighteen nurses systematically assigned to treatment Group A who studied the independent learning packet with a study guide designed to provide guidance of thinking. Seventeen nurses were assigned to treatment Group B, who studied an alternative form of the independent learning packet without the study guide. Group C acted as the control group. The independent variable was the method of instruction and the dependent variable was achievement as measured by scores on a criterion-referenced post-test, which was completed by all three groups. The Mann Whitney U test applied to the scores of Group A and B combined versus Group C yielded a significant difference in the predicted direction beyond the .00003 level. The difference in mean scores of Groups A and B failed to achieve a significance of .05 when the t test was applied. Therefore, the first hypothesis was confirmed but the second was not accepted. Analysis of the distribution of six known personal characteristics suggested that Groups A and B were equivalent, but that Group C was different from the other two. Interaction of the method of instruction with, the place of employment and the method of instruction with educational preparation produced the only significant effects (p<.025) on test scores when analysis of variance was carried out. Although the null hypothesis, that guidance makes no difference, may be true, several sources of error variance were identified which could account for the results obtained. It was concluded that considerable learning can be achieved by studying an independent learning packet, but the study as conducted failed to detect any facilitating function served by guidance in the form of a study guide. The recommendation for replication of the study advised modification of the methodology to reduce possible sources of error variance.

description: Household inaction in mortgage refinancing is pervasive despite financial incentives to take action. Inactive households implicitly cross-subsidize active households, allowing competitive lenders to set lower average mortgage rates. To provide a money-metric assessment of this cross-subsidy, we build a model of household refinancing behaviour and structurally estimate it on rich administrative data on the stock of loans in the U.K. mortgage market, an institutional setting well-suited to this calculation. The model and data reveal the existence of sizeable cross-subsidies, and reveal that cross-subsidies flow from relatively poorer households and those located in less-wealthy areas towards households that are richer and located in wealthier areas. These findings highlight how the design of household finance markets can contribute to wealth and income inequality.

description: The study of dilepton and direct photon emission was one of the main topics of the experimental program at the SPS devoted to the search of signals for QGP formation. Three generations of experiments, Helios-3, NA38/NA50, CERES and NA60 measured e+e- or mu+mu- production in various colliding systems and at different energies. While lepton pair production in p-A collisions was found to be reasonably well described by the expected sources, all experiments observed in nuclear collisions an excess of the yield above the extrapolation from p-A. As a result of this joint experimental effort we have currently a large amount of information characterizing this excess: its mass spectrum over the full range from 0.2 GeV/c^2 up to the J/psi, its transverse momentum spectra including their mass dependence, its angular distributions, its dependence on collision centrality over the complete range etc. Putting together all this information leads to the conclusion that what we observe is the long-sought thermal radiation from the fireball.

description: Homeowners’ insurance provides households financial protection from climate losses. To improve access and affordability, state regulators impose price controls on insurance companies. Using novel data, we construct a new measure of rate setting frictions for individual states and show that different states exercise varying degrees of price control, which positively correlates with how exposed a state is to climate events. In high friction states, insurers are more restricted in their ability to set rates and adjust rates less frequently and by a lower amount after experiencing climate losses. In part, insurers overcome pricing frictions by cross-subsidizing insurance across states. We show that in response to losses in high friction states, insurers increase rates in low friction states. Over time, rates get disjoint from underlying risk, and grow faster in states with low pricing frictions. Our findings have consequences for how climate risk is shared in the economy and for long-term access to insurance.

description: The number of reservoirs worldwide increases annually, and there are growing concerns regarding their potential effects on runoff and baseflow. In this study, the impact of the recently constructed Chaersen reservoir on downstream baseflow recession is analyzed using the pre-post comparison method. Additionally, the potential causes of these effects are investigated. Reservoir construction is found to cause the baseflow at the recession stage to increase by a relatively constant value (approximately 1 m3/s), which makes the log(-dQ/dt) vs. log(Q) points at the low flow stage shift to the right. This eventually results in a ~70% decrease in recession coefficient a and a ~27% increase in coefficient b. Consequently, the master recession curve and storage-discharge curve deviate significantly from those before construction. Finally, a baseflow recession analysis strategy suitable for a basin with reservoirs is proposed; it ensures that recession coefficients (a, b) agree well with practical values.

description: We quantify the impact that central bank refinancing operations and funding facilities had at reducing the banking sector’s intrinsic fragility in the euro area in 2014-2019. We do so by constructing, estimating and calibrating a micro-structural model of imperfect competition in the banking sector that allows for runs in the form of multiple equilibria, in the spirit of Diamond & Dybvig (1983), banks’ default and contagion, and central bank funding. Our framework incorporates demand and supply for insured and uninsured deposits, and for loans to firms and households, as well as borrowers’ default. The estimation and the calibration are based on confidential granular data for the euro area banking sector, including information on the amount of deposits covered by the deposit guarantee scheme and the borrowing from the European Central Bank (ECB). We document that the quantitative relevance of non-fundamental risk is potentially large in the euro area banking sector, as witnessed by the presence of alternative equilibria with run-type features, but also that central bank interventions exerted a crucial role in containing fundamental as well as non-fundamental risk. Our counterfactuals show that 1 percentage point reduction (increase) in the ECB lending rate of its refinancing operations reduces (increases) the median of banks’ default risk across equilibria by around 50%, with substantial heterogeneity of this pass-through across time, banks and countries.
Thermalization of Starlight in the Steady-State Cosmology

description: We investigate the fate of starlight in the Steady-State Cosmology. We discover that it is largely unaffected by the presence of ions in intergalactic space as it gets progressively red-shifted from the visible all the way down to the plasma frequency of the intergalactic matter. At that point, after about 450 Gyr - and contrary to previously published claims - the radiation will be thermalized. Under the assumptions adopted by Gold, Bondi, Hoyle, Narlikar, Burbidge and others concerning the creation of matter in the Steady-State Cosmology, and using reasonable estimates for the baryonic mass-density and mass-fraction of 4He, the analysis predicts a universal radiation field matching the CMB, i.e. having a black-body spectrum and temperature of about 2.7 K. The Steady-state Cosmology predicts that this radiation field will appear to originate from the intergalactic plasma.

description: We prove a moderate deviation principle for subgraph count statistics of Erdos-Renyi random graphs. This is equivalent in showing a moderate deviation principle for the trace of a power of a Bernoulli random matrix. It is done via an estimation of the log-Laplace transform and the Gaertner-Ellis theorem. We obtain upper bounds on the upper tail probabilities of the number of occurrences of small subgraphs. The method of proof is used to show supplemental moderate deviation principles for a class of symmetric statistics, including non-degenerate U-statistics with independent or Markovian entries.

description: In this paper, we use the finite mixture approach of Bonhomme et al. (2019) and Abowd et al. (2019) to estimate a model of wages and employment mobility with two-sided heterogeneity that we particularize in two ways. First, we develop a new Classification Expectation-Maximization algorithm for estimation to improve the classification of firms into a finite number of groups. Second, we impose a parametric structure on workers’ transition probabilities for improved precision and interpretability. The major contribution of this research is showing that the process by which workers match with firms is convoluted and one cannot understand its sources by studying wages alone. Extending the study of sorting beyond the correlation of wage fixed effects, we also employ a broader notion of sorting, the mutual information (MI), which can accurately represent the dependence between worker and firm latent types independently of their effect on wages. Using Danish data from the years 1987􀀀2013, we find that it is important to allow for flexible interactions between job tenure, labor experience, and worker and firm types in both mean wages and employment mobility. Sorting is moderately increasing over time wherein some sorting is positive on wages. Through the lens of MI, we find increased importance of non-wage amenities as workers age and select into long tenure relationships. The job offer arrival processes while employed and unemployed are key drivers of sorting during early career stages. However, as workers age job preferences become the dominant determinant of matching and give rise to a positive age trend in sorting. The positive age trend in sorting shows in the MI index but is not noticeably apparent in the wage fixed effect correlation. It is, hence, important to allow for both non-wage factors and non-linearity in matching when measuring sorting.

The Local Economic Impact of Natural Disasters
Creators: name: Roth Tran, Brigitte

Publisher: name: Stanford Digital Repository

Subjects: economics

description: We use county panel data to study the dynamic responses of local economies after natural disasters in the U.S. Specifically, we estimate disaster impulse response functions for personal income per capita and a broad range of other economic outcomes, using a panel version of the local projections estimator. In contrast to some recent cross-country studies, we find that disasters increase total and per capita personal income over the longer run (as of 8 years out). The effect is driven initially largely by a temporary employment boost and in the longer run by an increase in average weekly wages. We then assess the heterogeneity of disaster impacts across several dimensions. We find that the longer-run increase in income per capita rises with disaster severity, as measured by monetary damages. Hurricanes and tornados yield longer run increases in income, while floods do not. The longer run increase in income—which has on average become smaller over time—tends to rise with recent disaster experience and is absent for counties with no recent experience. Finally, state-level analyses and estimates of spatial spillovers across counties suggest that, while over the short- to medium-run, the regional and local impacts of disasters on personal income are similar, over the longer run the net regional effect may be negative, in contrast to the positive local effect.
Morphology of epitaxial core-shell nanowires

description: We analyze the morphological stability against azimuthal, axial, and general helical perturbations for epitaxial core-shell nanowires in the growth regimes limited by either surface diffusion or evaporation-condensation surface kinetics. For both regimes, we find that geometric parameters (i.e., core radius and shell thickness) play a central role in determining whether the nanowire remains cylindrical or its shell breaks up into epitaxial islands similar to those observed during Stranski-Krastanow growth in thin epilayers. The combination of small cores and rapid growth of the shell emerge as key ingredients for stable shell growth. Our results provide an explanation for the different core-shell morphologies reported in the Si-Ge system experimentally, and also identify a growth-induced intrinsic mechanism for the formation of helical nanowires.

The Good Wife? Reputation Dynamics and Financial Decision-Making Inside the Household

description: We study the dynamic relationship between intra-household specialization, resource allocation and women’s investment decisions. We consider public good investments delegated to the wife in settings where wives perceived to be savvy investors by their husbands are entrusted with a larger share of the budget. We show, first theoretically, then empirically through a series of experiments with couples in Malawi, that a signaling game can result, in which wives, in order to maintain control over a larger share of the budget, (a) under-invest in novel goods with unknown returns; and (b) knowingly over-use low-return goods in order to hide bad purchase decisions—we call this the intra-household sunk cost fallacy. These dynamics matter for women’s well-being as well as for the design of poverty alleviation programs.

description: Theories of gravity invariant under those diffeomorphisms generated by transverse vectors, $\pd_\mξ^\m=0$ are considered. Such theories are dubbed transverse, and differ from General Relativity in that the determinant of the metric, $g$, is a transverse scalar. We comment on diverse ways in which these models can be constrained using a variety of observations. Generically, an additional scalar degree of freedom mediates the interaction, so the usual constraints on scalar-tensor theories have to be imposed. If the purely gravitational part is Einstein--Hilbert but the matter action is transverse, the models predict that the three {\em a priori} different concepts of mass (gravitational active and gravitational passive as well as inertial) are not equivalent anymore. These transverse deviations from General Relativity are therefore tightly constrained, actually correlated with existing bounds on violations of the equivalence principle, local violations of Newton's third law and/or violation of Local Position Invariance.

description: Machine learning and deep learning methods have become essential for computer-assisted prediction in medicine, with a growing number of applications also in the field of mammography. Typically these algorithms are trained for a specific task, e.g., the classification of lesions or the prediction of a mammogram's pathology status. To obtain a comprehensive view of a patient, models which were all trained for the same task(s) are subsequently ensembled or combined. In this work, we propose a pipeline approach, where we first train a set of individual, task-specific models and subsequently investigate the fusion thereof, which is in contrast to the standard model ensembling strategy. We fuse model predictions and high-level features from deep learning models with hybrid patient models to build stronger predictors on patient level. To this end, we propose a multi-branch deep learning model which efficiently fuses features across different tasks and mammograms to obtain a comprehensive patient-level prediction. We train and evaluate our full pipeline on public mammography data, i.e., DDSM and its curated version CBIS-DDSM, and report an AUC score of 0.962 for predicting the presence of any lesion and 0.791 for predicting the presence of malignant lesions on patient level. Overall, our fusion approaches improve AUC scores significantly by up to 0.04 compared to standard model ensembling. Moreover, by providing not only global patient-level predictions but also task-specific model results that are related to radiological features, our pipeline aims to closely support the reading workflow of radiologists.

A simple proof for generalized Fibonacci numbers with dying rabbits

description: We consider the generalized Fibonacci counting problem with rabbits that become fertile at age $f$ and die at age $d$, with $1<=f<=d$ and $d$ finite or infinite. We provide a simple proof, based exclusively on a counting argumentation, for a recursive formula that gives the $n$th generalized Fibonacci number as a function of at most 3 previous numbers. The formula generalizes both the original Fibonacci sequence, for $f=2$ and $d=\infty$ (or $f=1$ and $d=2$), and other Fibonacci-related sequences, such as the Padovan sequence, for $f=2$ and $d=3$, the Tribonacci, for $f=1$ and $d=3$, Tetranacci, for $f=1$ and $d=4$, and alike sequences, for $f=1$ and finite values of $d$.
