T‐calibration in semi‐parametric models

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
AbstractThis article relates the calibration of models to the consistent loss functions for the target functional of the model. Correctly specified models are calibrated. Conversely, we demonstrate that if there is a parameter value that is optimal under all consistent loss functions, then a model is calibrated.

Interpretable Machine Learning: A Comprehensive Review of Foundations, Methods, and the Path Forward

open access: yesWIREs Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery, Volume 16, Issue 1, March 2026.
This systematic review of 352 studies establishes a comprehensive taxonomy for Interpretable Machine Learning, transitioning from foundational intrinsic models to advanced deep learning explanations. It reveals a critical paradigm shift toward “mechanistic interpretability” and actionable recourse, emphasizing that future AI systems must be rigorously ...

Probabilistic Forecasts: Scoring Rules and Their Decomposition and Diagrammatic Representation via Bregman Divergences

open access: yesEntropy, 2015
A scoring rule is a device for evaluation of forecasts that are given in terms of the probability of an event. In this article we will restrict our attention to binary forecasts.

Changes by Era in Risk Factors and Outcomes Among Deceased Donor Kidney Transplant Recipients With Delayed Graft Function

open access: yesClinical Transplantation, Volume 40, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction There are no effective therapeutic agents for preventing or treating delayed graft function (DGF) among deceased donor kidney transplant recipients (DDKTRs). Donor and recipient factors are important to predicting DGF and associated outcomes, which we hypothesize differed over time.

Statistical Analysis of Distance Estimators with Density Differences and Density Ratios

open access: yesEntropy, 2014
Estimating a discrepancy between two probability distributions from samples is an important task in statistics and machine learning. There are mainly two classes of discrepancy measures: distance measures based on the density difference, such as the Lp ...

General H-theorem and Entropies that Violate the Second Law

open access: yesEntropy, 2014
H-theorem states that the entropy production is nonnegative and, therefore, the entropy of a closed system should monotonically change in time. In information processing, the entropy production is positive for random transformation of signals (the ...

Bregman-Divergence-Based Arimoto-Blahut Algorithm

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Information Theory
We generalize the generalized Arimoto-Blahut algorithm to a general function defined over Bregman-divergence system. In existing methods, when linear constraints are imposed, each iteration needs to solve a convex minimization. Exploiting our obtained algorithm, we propose a minimization-free-iteration algorithm.

Paradigms of Cognition

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
An abstract, quantitative theory which connects elements of information —key ingredients in the cognitive proces—is developed. Seemingly unrelated results are thereby unified.

Robustness Property of Robust-BD Wald-Type Test for Varying-Dimensional General Linear Models

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
An important issue for robust inference is to examine the stability of the asymptotic level and power of the test statistic in the presence of contaminated data.
