Research Abstract |
The one-shot decision theory is initially proposed for dealing with one-shot decision problems which are typical for situations where a decision maker has one and only one chance to make a decision with partially known information. The one-shot decision theory is a fundamental alternative for decision making under uncertainty because it is scenario-based instead of lottery-based as in the other existing methods. As an application, a duopoly market of a new product with a short life cycle, a private real estate investment problem and a single-period inventory problem are analyzed. A general approach to multistage one-shot decision making is proposed with the one-shot decision theory. The optimality equation in multistage one-shot decision problems is given. We examine the optimal stopping problem in the possibilistic time-invariant system and an individual multi-period consumption-investment problem.
