摘要
We investigate four orthant stochastic orderings between random vectors X and Y that have finitely discrete probability distributions in R-k. They have applications to multiattribute decision under risk, dependency of random vectors, and the statistical comparison of two k-variate samples. For each of the orderings we present conditions that are necessary and sufficient for dominance of Y over X. Given their distributions numerically, these conditions can be checked in an efficient way. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
