Statistical Modelling, 2008 A common problem in statistical modelling is to distinguish between finite mixture distribution and a homogeneous non-mixture distribution. Finite mixture models are widely used in practice and often mixtures of normal densities are indistinguishable from homogenous non-normal densities.

Model Misspecification as the Causes of Flypaper Effect
Proceedings, 2023 The aim of this paper is to investigate the relationship between the Fly-paper effect (FPE) and possible errors in the specification of econometric models used in the empirical analysis of FPE.

Structured ambiguity and model misspecification
Journal of Economic Theory, 2022 A decision maker is averse to not knowing a prior over a set of restricted structured models (ambiguity) and suspects that each structured model is misspecified. The decision maker evaluates intertemporal plans under all of the structured models and, to recognize possible misspecifications, under unstructured alternatives that are statistically close ...

Making Decisions under Model Misspecification [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2020 Abstract We use decision theory to confront uncertainty that is sufficiently broad to incorporate “models as approximations.” We presume the existence of a featured collection of what we call “structured models” that have explicit substantive motivations.

Mathematics, 2021 In optimal experimental design theory it is usually assumed that the response variable follows a normal distribution with constant variance. However, some works assume other probability distributions based on additional information or practitioner’s ...

Likelihood-based estimation and prediction for a measles outbreak in Samoa
Infectious Disease Modelling, 2023 Prediction of the progression of an infectious disease outbreak is important for planning and coordinating a response. Differential equations are often used to model an epidemic outbreak's behaviour but are challenging to parameterise. Furthermore, these
