Distributionally robust stochastic programs with side information based on trimmings
This is a research paper whose authors are Adrián Esteban-Pérez and Juan M. Morales.
Abstract:
- We look at stochastic programmes that are conditional on some covariate information, where the only knowledge of the possible relationship between the unknown parameters and the covariates is a limited data sample of their joint distribution. We build a data-driven Distributionally Robust Optimization (DRO) framework to hedge the decision against the inherent error in the process of inferring conditional information from limited joint data by leveraging the close relationship between the notion of trimmings of a probability measure and the partial mass transportation problem.
- We demonstrate that our technique is computationally as tractable as the usual (no side information) Wasserstein-metric-based DRO and provides performance guarantees. Furthermore, our DRO framework may be easily applied to data-driven decision-making issues involving tainted samples. Finally, using a single-item newsvendor problem and a portfolio allocation problem with side information, the theoretical findings are presented.
Conclusions:
- We used the relationship between probability reductions and partial mass transit in this study to give a straightforward, yet powerful and creative technique to expand the usual Wasserstein-metric-based DRO to the situation of conditional stochastic programming. In the process of inferring the conditional probability measure of the random parameters from a limited sample drawn from the genuine joint data-generating distribution, our technique generates judgments that are distributionally resilient to uncertainty. In a series of numerical tests based on the single-item newsvendor issue and a portfolio allocation problem, we proved that our strategy achieves much higher out-of-sample performance than several current options. We backed up these actual findings with theoretical analysis, demonstrating that our strategy had appealing performance guarantees.

Answer:
This is one of many possible answers.
(x -1)(x-2)(x-3)
Explanation:
The zeros are x = 1, x = 2, x = 3. This polynomial has a degree of 3.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of the Uber ride be represented by y in dollars.
Let the number of miles that the Uber rides be represented by x.
The equation relating x and y is expressed as
y = 2/3x + 4.
This is a slope intercept form equation. The slope is 2/3 and it represents the cost per mile.
The cost of a 21 mile ride will be
Substituting x = 21 into the given equation, it becomes
y = 2/3 × 21 + 4 = 14 + 4 = 18
The 21 mile ride costs $18
Part B) The $46 ride will cost
Substituting y = 46 into the given equation, it becomes
46 = 2x/3 + 4 =
46 - 4 = 2x/3
42 = 2x/3
2x = 42 × 3 = 126
x = 126/2 = 63
The $46 ride will be 63 miles
The answer for the question is 20.25
