Recent public debate on costs and effectiveness of health care in the United States has generated a growing emphasis on “profiling” of medical care providers. The process of profiling involves comparing resource use and quality of care among medical providers to a community or a normative standard. This is valuable for targeting quality improvement strategies. For example, hospital profiles may be used to determine whether institutions deviate in important ways in the…

位置参数后验分布的决策论推导AI 解读

In this paper we develop a decision theoretic formulation for the problem of deriving posterior distributions for a parameter $\theta$, when the prior information is vague. Let $\pi(d\theta)$ be the true but unknown prior, $Q_\pi(d\theta\mid X)$ the corresponding posterior and $\delta(d\theta\mid X)$ an estimate of the posterior based on an observation $X$. The loss function is specified as a measure of distance between $Q_\pi(\cdot\mid X)$ and $\delta(\cdot\mid X)$, and the…
