Base rate effects on the IAT

Consciousness and Cognition, 2009
We investigated the influence of stimulus base rates on the Implicit Association Test (IAT). Using an East/West-German attitude-IAT, we demonstrated that both overall response speed and differential response speed underlying IAT effects depend on the relative frequencies of the stimulus categories.

Experience and the base-rate fallacy

Organizational Behavior and Human Performance, 1982
Abstract This study shows that decision makers can use the base rate to assess posterior probabilities when they have experienced the relationship between the base rate and the diagnostic information. When they experience only the base rate, they do not use it.

Recommending based on rating frequencies

Proceedings of the fourth ACM conference on Recommender systems, 2010
Since the development of the comparably simple neighborhood-based methods in the 1990s, a plethora of techniques has been developed to improve various aspects of collaborative filtering recommender systems like predictive accuracy, scalability to large problem instances or the capability to deal with sparse data sets. Many of the recent algorithms rely

Diagnosticity and the base-rate effect

Memory & Cognition, 1984
A common judgmental task involves predicting the category membership of an individual on the basis of information specific to that individual and background information regarding the base rate of different categories. According to statistical theory, predictions may deviate from base rates only to the extent that the individuating information is ...

Neglect the Base Rate: It's the Law! [PDF]

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2012
If accurate prediction is the goal, and if information about the unconditional probability of the predicted event is available, a strong case can be made for using this information, i.e. for a Bayesian approach to inference. Not so rarely, the law calls for accurate prediction, e.g. if a bailing decision hinges on an estimate of recidivism risk.

Opportunity-Based Suicide Rates

Psychological Reports, 1988
Clarke (1984) discussed the possibility of basing crime rates on the number of opportunities for crimes being committed rather than per capita of the population. Crime rates can be expressed relative to the target of crime (for example, the number of burglaries per houselapartment), to the means of commission (for example, auto thefts per car), to ...

A Low-Rate DoS Detection Based on Rate Anomalies

2011
Low-rate Denial-of-Service attacks are stealthier and trickier than traditional DDoS attacks. According to the characteristic of periodicity and short burst in LDoS flows, a detection measure against LDoS attacks based on rate anomalies has been proposed. In the period when the router packet loss-rate is abnormal caused by the attack pulse, the rate of

Using receiver-based rate matching for congestion detection in rate-based protocols

2003 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking, 2003. WCNC 2003., 2004
Traditional congestion control schemes rely solely on packet losses as an indication of congestion. This paper motivates and describes the use of receiver-based rate estimation for the proactive detection of incipient congestion in rate-based protocols.

The Internal Ratings-Based Approach

2012
Abstract This chapter discusses the internal ratings-based approach (IRB). The IRB permits a bank to use its internal models to derive risk weights for particular exposures. There are two available bases for the IRB: foundation (F-IRB), which permits the bank to model Probability of Default (PD), but relies on regulatory standard figures
