In project management, the cone of uncertainty describes the evolution of the amount of best case uncertainty during a project. [1] At the beginning of a project, comparatively little is known about the product or work results, and so estimates are subject to large uncertainty.
this representation simplifies the setting of both a starting time and the value of at that time. The logistic function , with maximum growth rate at time M {\displaystyle M} , is the case where Q = ν = 1 {\displaystyle Q=\nu =1} .
An example structural equation model after estimation. Latent variables are sometimes indicated with ovals while observed variables are shown in rectangles. Residuals and variances are sometimes drawn as double-headed arrows (shown here) or single arrows and a circle (as in Figure 2).
The example shows the breakdown of the Level 2 process "Make Build to Order" into its Level 3 components identified from M2.01 to M2.06. Once again this is the SCOR syntax: letter, number, dot, and serial number. The model suggests that to perform a "Make Build to Order" process, there are 6 more detailed tasks that are usually performed.
Simultaneous equations models are a type of statistical model in which the dependent variables are functions of other dependent variables, rather than just independent variables. [1] This means some of the explanatory variables are jointly determined with the dependent variable, which in economics usually is the consequence of some underlying ...
The cross-lagged panel model is a type of discrete time structural equation model used to analyze panel data in which two or more variables are repeatedly measured at two or more different time points. This model aims to estimate the directional effects that one variable has on another at different points in time. [1] [2] This model was first ...
In comparison to discrete-time Markov decision processes, continuous-time Markov decision processes can better model the decision-making process for a system that has continuous dynamics, i.e., the system dynamics is defined by ordinary differential equations (ODEs).
A common example of a first-hitting-time model is a ruin problem, such as Gambler's ruin. In this example, an entity (often described as a gambler or an insurance company) has an amount of money which varies randomly with time, possibly with some drift. The model considers the event that the amount of money reaches 0, representing bankruptcy.
