Two-Tier Mapper, an unbiased topology-based clustering method for enhanced global gene expression analysis

Cathrin Brisken, Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Jacques Rougemont

Motivation: Unbiased clustering methods are needed to analyze growing numbers of complex data sets. Currently available clustering methods often depend on parameters that are set by the user, they lack stability, and are not applicable to small data sets. ...

Development of topological tools for the analysis of biological data

There is a growing need for unbiased clustering algorithms, ideally automated to analyze complex data sets. Topological data analysis (TDA) has been used to approach this problem. This recent field of mathematics discerns characteristic features of a space ...

Expectations as Endowments: Evidence on Reference-Dependent Preferences from Exchange and Valuation Experiments

Andreas Fuster

While evidence suggests that people evaluate outcomes with respect to reference points, little is known about what determines them. We conduct two experiments that show that reference points are determined, at least in part, by expectations. In an exchange ...

Hicksian Welfare Measures and the Normative Endowment Effect

Thomas Alois Weber

We show that the Hicksian welfare measures of compensating variation and equivalent variation coincide if one of them is evaluated at a compensated income. The measures are nondecreasing in income if the varied attribute and income are complementary, and i ...

Recent neurophysiological studies reveal that risk and reward are separately encoded in the human brain, and that the encodings display different timing patterns. Therefore, we hypothesized that sensitivity of trading decisions to risk and reward parameter ...
