We introduce PySDTest, a Python/Stata package for statistical tests of stochastic dominance. PySDTest implements various testing procedures such as Barrett and Donald (2003), Linton et al. (2005), Linton et al. (2010), and Donald and Hsu (2016), along with their extensions. Users can flexibly combine several resampling methods and test statistics, including the numerical delta method (D\"umbgen, 1993; Hong and Li, 2018; Fang and Santos, 2019). The package allows for testing advanced hypotheses on stochastic dominance relations, such as stochastic maximality among multiple prospects. We first provide an overview of the concepts of stochastic dominance and testing methods. Then, we offer practical guidance for using the package and the Stata command pysdtest. We apply PySDTest to investigate the portfolio choice problem between the daily returns of Bitcoin and the S&P 500 index as an empirical illustration. Our findings indicate that the S&P 500 index returns second-order stochastically dominate the Bitcoin returns.

What Can We Learn from Inter-Annotator Variability in Skin Lesion Segmentation?
Inter-annotator agreement on skin lesion segmentation is significantly lower for malignant lesions, can be predicted from images, and improves diagnosis when used as an auxiliary task.
