Classifying with the Fine Structure of Distributions: Leveraging Distributional Information for Robust and Plausible Naïve Bayes

open access: yesMachine Learning and Knowledge Extraction
In machine learning, the Bayes classifier represents the theoretical optimum for minimizing classification errors. Since estimating high-dimensional probability densities is impractical, simplified approximations such as naïve Bayes and k-nearest ...

Bayesian Updating, Model Class Selection and Robust Stochastic Predictions of Structural Response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A fundamental issue when predicting structural response by using mathematical models is how to treat both modeling and excitation uncertainty. A general framework for this is presented which uses probability as a multi-valued conditional logic for ...

Scaling‐Aware Rating of Poisson‐Limited Demand Forecasts

open access: yesJournal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Forecast quality should be assessed in the context of what is possible in theory and what is reasonable to expect in practice. Often, one can identify an approximate upper bound to a probabilistic forecast's sharpness, which sets a lower, not necessarily achievable, limit to error metrics.

Estimation of a closed population size of tadpoles in temporary pond

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology, 2017
The practice of capture-recapture to estimate the diversity is well known to many animal groups, however this practice in the larval phase of anuran amphibians is incipient.

UK Forecasts of Annual GDP: Their Accuracy and the Information Categories Underlying Their Revisions

open access: yesJournal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policy makers are concerned with the accuracy of GDP forecasts and want to understand the reasons for the revision of forecasts. We study these issues by examining forecasts of annual UK GDP growth by a panel of agents, published monthly by HM Treasury. We focus on two main issues: the developing accuracy of the group‐mean forecast as horizons

Forecasting New Employment Using Nonrepresentative Online Job Advertisements With an Application to the Italian and EU Labor Market

open access: yesJournal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using online job advertisement data improves the timeliness and granularity depth of analysis in the labor market in domains not covered by official data. Specifically, its variation over time may be used as an anticipator of official employment variations.

Income–Well‐Being Gradient in Sickness and Health

open access: yesHealth Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a method for studying the value of insurance. For this purpose, we analyze the well‐being of the same individuals, comparing sick and healthy years, using German panel survey data on life satisfaction. We impose structure on the income–well‐being gradient by fitting a flexible utility function to the data, focusing on the ...
