Nonparametric Knn estimation with monotone constraints

ECONOMETRIC REVIEWS, 36(6-9), 988–1006.

By: Z. Li n, G. Liu * & Q. Li *

author keywords: Knn estimation; monotone restriction; nonparametric method; testing monotonicity
TL;DR: This paper proposes to estimate a nonparametric regression function subject to a monotonicity restriction using the Knn method, and applies this method to the “Job Market Matching” data and finds that the unconstrained/constrained Knn estimators work better than kernel estimators for this type of highly unevenly distributed data.

The Value of Information in Decision-Analytic Modeling for Malaria Vector Control in East Africa

RISK ANALYSIS, 37(2), 231–244.

By: D. Kim *, Z. Brown n , R. Anderson*, C. Mutero*, M. Miranda *, J. Wiener*, R. Kramer *

author keywords: Decision analysis; malaria control; value of information
MeSH headings : Africa, Eastern; Animals; Costs and Cost Analysis; Decision Support Techniques; Global Health; Humans; Malaria / prevention & control; Models, Theoretical; Mosquito Control / economics; Mosquito Control / methods; Resource Allocation; Uncertainty
TL;DR: Having perfect information on the uncertain parameters could improve program net benefits by up to 5–21%, with the highest VOI associated with jointly eliminating uncertainty about reproductive speed of malaria‐transmitting mosquitoes and initial efficacy of larviciding at reducing the emergence of new adult mosquitoes.
