On the Model-Misspecification in Reinforcement Learning [PDF]

open access: yes
The success of reinforcement learning (RL) crucially depends on effective function approximation when dealing with complex ground-truth models. Existing sample-efficient RL algorithms primarily employ three approaches to function approximation: policy ...

Assessing the impact of variance heterogeneity and misspecification in mixed-effects location-scale models

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology
Purpose Linear Mixed Model (LMM) is a common statistical approach to model the relation between exposure and outcome while capturing individual variability through random effects.

Newsvendor under Ambiguity and Misspecification

open access: yesManufacturing & Service Operations Management
We consider a newsvendor problem with unknown demand distribution, where we distinguish ambiguity under which the newsvendor does not differentiate demand distributions of common characteristics (e.g., mean and variance) and misspecification under which such characteristics might be misspecified (due to, e.g., estimation error and/or distribution shift)

Market selection and learning under model misspecification

open access: yes, 2023
This paper studies market selection in an Arrow-Debreu economy with complete markets where agents learn over misspecified models. Under model misspecification, standard Bayesian learning loses its formal justification and biased learning processes may ...

Uncertainty quantification for misspecified machine learned interatomic potentials

open access: yesnpj Computational Materials
The use of high-dimensional regression techniques from machine learning has significantly improved the quantitative accuracy of interatomic potentials. Atomic simulations can now plausibly target quantitative predictions in a variety of settings, which ...

Comparing performance between log-binomial and robust Poisson regression models for estimating risk ratios under model misspecification

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology, 2018
Background Log-binomial and robust (modified) Poisson regression models are popular approaches to estimate risk ratios for binary response variables. Previous studies have shown that comparatively they produce similar point estimates and standard errors.

MULTIPARAMETRIC AND HIERARCHICAL SPATIAL AUTOREGRESSIVE MODELS: THE EVALUATION OF THE MISSPECIFICATION OF SPATIAL EFFECTS USING A MONTE CARLO SIMULATION

open access: yesActa Universitatis Lodziensis. Folia Oeconomica, 2014
The aim of this paper is to evaluate the spatial and hierarchical models for data generating processes with spatial heterogeneity and spatial dependence at the higher level.

A partially heterogeneous weighted fusion learning method for potential heterogeneous treatment effect in multi-site survival study

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology
Background In multi-site studies in clinical practice, the treatment effects may exhibit potential heterogeneity across different sites. Additionally, propensity score methods used to adjust for confounding may suffer from model misspecification, which ...

No-Regret Linear Bandits under Gap-Adjusted Misspecification [PDF]

open access: yes
This work studies linear bandits under a new notion of gap-adjusted misspecification and is an extension of Liu et al. (2023). When the underlying reward function is not linear, existing linear bandits work usually relies on a uniform misspecification ...

Investigating item complexity as a source of cross-national DIF in TIMSS math and science

open access: yesLarge-scale Assessments in Education
Background Large scale international assessments depend on invariance of measurement across countries. An important consideration when observing cross-national differential item functioning (DIF) is whether the DIF actually reflects a source of bias, or ...
