Sensitivity and specificity of information criteria. [PDF]

open access: yesBrief Bioinform, 2020
Information criteria (ICs) based on penalized likelihood, such as Akaike's Information Criterion (AIC), the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), and sample-size-adjusted versions of them, are widely used for model selection in health and biological research.

Performance of Information Criteria for Spatial Models. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Stat Comput Simul, 2009
Model choice is one of the most crucial aspect in any statistical data analysis. It is well known that most models are just an approximation to the true data generating process but among such model approximations it is our goal to select the "best" one.

Word2vec Skip-Gram Dimensionality Selection via Sequential Normalized Maximum Likelihood

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
In this paper, we propose a novel information criteria-based approach to select the dimensionality of the word2vec Skip-gram (SG). From the perspective of the probability theory, SG is considered as an implicit probability distribution estimation under ...

On the Disagreement of Forecasting Model Selection Criteria

open access: yesForecasting, 2023
Forecasters have been using various criteria to select the most appropriate model from a pool of candidate models. This includes measurements on the in-sample accuracy of the models, information criteria, and cross-validation, among others.

Evidence of an Absence of Inbreeding Depression in a Wild Population of Weddell Seals (Leptonychotes weddellii)

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
Inbreeding depression can reduce the viability of wild populations. Detecting inbreeding depression in the wild is difficult; developing accurate estimates of inbreeding can be time and labor intensive.

The Copula Information Criteria [PDF]

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Statistics, 2014
ABSTRACTWe derive two types of Akaike information criterion (AIC)‐like model‐selection formulae for the semiparametric pseudo‐maximum likelihood procedure. We first adapt the arguments leading to the original AIC formula, related to empirical estimation of a certain Kullback–Leibler information distance.

Assessing the Global and Local Uncertainty of Scientific Evidence in the Presence of Model Misspecification

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Scientists need to compare the support for models based on observed phenomena. The main goal of the evidential paradigm is to quantify the strength of evidence in the data for a reference model relative to an alternative model.

A Bayesian Approach for Model-Based Clustering of Several Binary Dissimilarity Matrices: The dmbc Package in R

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2021
We introduce the new package dmbc that implements a Bayesian algorithm for clustering a set of binary dissimilarity matrices within a model-based framework.

Model Selection with Missing Data Embedded in Missing-at-Random Data

open access: yesStats, 2023
When models are built with missing data, an information criterion is needed to select the best model among the various candidates. Using a conventional information criterion for missing data may lead to the selection of the wrong model when data are not ...

Use of information criteria and detection model methods to select the best linear regression model with application on thalassemia children in Mosul [PDF]

open access: yesمجلة التربية والعلم, 2012
In this paper we compute Akaike's Information Criteria (AIC), Bayesian Information Criteria (BIC) and Schwarz Bayesian Criteria (SBC) for all possible for independent variables.
