Small Plot Trials Documenting Effective Mating Disruption of Oriental Fruit Moth by Using High Densities of Wax-Drop Pheromone Dispensers (2005)

L. L. Stelinski, L. J. Gut, R. E. Mallinger, D. Epstein, T. P. Reed, J. R. Miller

In 2004 field experiments, we compared the effectiveness of various deployment densities of 0.1-ml paraffin wax drops containing 5% pheromone versus Isomate M-Rosso “rope” dispensers for...

Endovascular aneurysm repair and outcome in patients unfit for open repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm (EVAR trial 2): randomised controlled trial (2005)

Greenhalgh, R.M., Brown, L.C., Epstein, D., Kwong, G.P.S., Powell, J.T., Sculpher, M.J., ...

Background Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) to exclude abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) was introduced for patients of poor health status considered unfit for major surgery. We instigated EVAR...

Endovascular aneurysm repair versus open repair in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (EVAR trial 1): randomised controlled trial (2005)

Greenhalgh, R.M., Brown, L.C., Epstein, D., Kwong, G.P.S., Powell, J.T., Sculpher, M.J., ...

Background Although endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has a lower 30-day operative mortality than open repair, the long-term results of EVAR are uncertain. We instigated EVAR trial 1 to compare...

Uncertain interest rate modelling (1999)

Epstein, D.

In this thesis, we introduce a non-probabilistic model for the short-term interest rate. The key concepts involved in this new approach are the non-diffusive nature of the short rate process and the...

Evaluation of four maternal smoking questions.

Kharrazi, M, Epstein, D, Hopkins, B, Kreutzer, R, Doebbert, G, Hiatt, R, ...

OBJECTIVE: The authors evaluated four questions about maternal smoking during pregnancy for use on birth certificates. METHODS: Question 1 (yes/no format) and Question 2 (trimester-specific design)...

The Valuation of a Firm Advertising Optimally

D. Epstein, N.Mayor, P.Schonbucher, A.E. Whalley, P. Wilmott

In this paper we model the value of a firm based on its current earnings and cash balances. The value is modelled on the assumption that earnings follow a mean-reverting process. The effect of...

The Yield Envelope: Price Ranges for Fixed Income Products

D. Epstein, P. Wilmott

There is an extensive literature on the valuation of a fixed income contracts. The present work addresses the problem from a new outlook: we find upper and lower bounds for the value of a contract....

The Value of Market Research When a Firm is Learning: Real Option Pricing and Optimal Filtering

N. Mayor, P. Schonbucher, P.Wilmott, A.E. Whalley, D. Epstein

In this paper we model the value to a firm of undertaking market research into a particular product opportunity. The way in which information about the potential of the project arrives and knowledge...
