  2. Risk matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risk_matrix

    The values on the risk axis were determined by first determining risk impact and risk probability values in a manner identical to completing a 7 x 7 version of the modern risk matrix. [8] A 5 x 4 version of the risk matrix was defined by the US Department of Defense on March 30 1984, in "MIL-STD-882B System Safety Program Requirements". [9] [10 ...

  3. Decision curve analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_curve_analysis

    Example decision curve analysis graph with two predictors. A decision curve analysis graph is drawn by plotting threshold probability on the horizontal axis and net benefit on the vertical axis, illustrating the trade-offs between benefit (true positives) and harm (false positives) as the threshold probability (preference) is varied across a range of reasonable threshold probabilities.

  4. Ruin theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruin_theory

    In actuarial science and applied probability, ruin theory (sometimes risk theory [1] or collective risk theory) uses mathematical models to describe an insurer's vulnerability to insolvency/ruin. In such models key quantities of interest are the probability of ruin, distribution of surplus immediately prior to ruin and deficit at time of ruin.

  5. Statistical risk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_risk

    Statistical risk is a quantification of a situation's risk using statistical methods.These methods can be used to estimate a probability distribution for the outcome of a specific variable, or at least one or more key parameters of that distribution, and from that estimated distribution a risk function can be used to obtain a single non-negative number representing a particular conception of ...

  6. Probabilistic risk assessment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probabilistic_risk_assessment

    CDF: 2.4 × 10 −8 /year, and; CFF: 5.5 × 10 −9 /yr for; The second point is a possible lack of design in order to prevent and mitigate the catastrophic events, which has the lowest probability of the event and biggest magnitude of the impact, [2] and the lowest degree of uncertainty about their

  7. Expected utility hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expected_utility_hypothesis

    The risk attitude is directly related to the curvature of the utility function: risk neutral individuals have linear utility functions, while risk seeking individuals have convex utility functions and risk averse individuals have concave utility functions. The degree of risk aversion can be measured by the curvature of the utility function ...

  8. Risk score - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risk_score

    Risk score are designed to represent an underlying probability of an adverse event denoted {=} given a vector of explanatory variables containing measurements of the relevant risk factors. In order to establish the connection between the risk factors and the probability, a set of weights β {\displaystyle \beta } is estimated using a ...

  9. PERT distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PERT_distribution

    In probability and statistics, the PERT distributions are a family of continuous probability distributions defined by the minimum (a), most likely (b) and maximum (c) values that a variable can take. It is a transformation of the four-parameter beta distribution with an additional assumption that its expected value is
