Generalized Fiducial Inference on Differentiable Manifolds Abstract: We consider Generalized Fiducial (GF) and Bayesian Inferential problems on parameter spaces that take values on Riemannian manifolds. In the GF case, we introduce the Constrained Generalized Fiducial Distribution (CGFD), a sub-manifold … Read more
Optimizing Stochastic Models in Health Care: Appointment Scheduling and Disease Testing We consider two different problems: appointment scheduling and asymptomatic disease testing. For the appointment scheduling problem, the goal is to assign appointment times to minimize a weighted sum … Read more
