Selection of Most Informative Components in Risk Mitigation Analysis of Supply Networks: An Information-Gain Approach

Avi Herbon, Eugene Levner, Sharon Hovav, and Lin Shaopei

Abstract—The concept of a supply network generalizes supply chains, web, multi-media communication networks, and complex technological projects. A problem investigated in this paper is to minimize the economic loss caused by failures and other undesired events in the network. This is done in two steps: first, we find most informative network components and, then,select the optimal set of risk-preventing activities.

Index Terms—Risk analysis, supply networks, most informative components, information gain, entropy .
