Draper 与 Guo 对《鞅后验分布》的讨论AI 解读

We have two comments motivated by this interesting paper. The idea, introduced early in the paper, that ‘the object of interest is fully defined once all the observations have been viewed’ is almost exactly 100 years old: it was a cornerstone of the remarkable paper by Fisher (1922) and has been referred to for many decades as Fisher consistency. We are surprised that the authors did not make this connection. Theorem (Draper & Guo, 2023) Under the conditions detailed above,…

数字实验中异质性处理效应的非参数贝叶斯分析AI 解读

Randomized controlled trials play an important role in how Internet companies predict the impact of policy decisions and product changes. In these “digital experiments,” different units (people, devices, products) respond differently to the treatment. This article presents a fast and scalable Bayesian nonparametric analysis of such heterogenous treatment effects and their measurement in relation to observable covariates. New results and algorithms are provided for…

二元结局预测中变量选择的随机优化比较及卫生政策应用AI 解读

Traditional variable-selection strategies in generalized linear models (GLMs) seek to optimize a measure of predictive accuracy without regard for the cost of data collection. When the purpose of such model building is the creation of predictive scales to be used in future studies with constrained budgets, the standard approach may not be optimal. We propose a Bayesian decision-theoretic framework for variable selection in binary-outcome GLMs where the budget for data…

模型不确定性的评估与传播AI 解读

SUMMARY In most examples of inference and prediction, the expression of uncertainty about unknown quantities y on the basis of known quantities x is based on a model M that formalizes assumptions about how x and y are related. M will typically have two parts: structural assumptions S, such as the form of the link function and the choice of error distribution in a generalized linear model, and parameters θ whose meaning is specific to a given choice of S. It is common in…
