Bayesian social aggregation with accumulating evidence

نویسندگان

چکیده

How should we aggregate the ex ante preferences of Bayesian agents with heterogeneous beliefs? Suppose state world is described by a random process that unfolds over time. Different have different beliefs about probabilistic laws governing this process. As new information revealed time process, update their and via Bayes rule. Consider Pareto principle applies only to which remain stable in long run under these updates. I show “eventual Pareto” implies social planner must be utilitarian. But it does not impose any relationship between individuals those planner, except for weak compatibility condition.

Sequential biases in accumulating evidence

Whilst it is common in clinical trials to use the results of tests at one phase to decide whether to continue to the next phase and to subsequently design the next phase, we show that this can lead to biased results in evidence synthesis. Two new kinds of bias associated with accumulating evidence, termed 'sequential decision bias' and 'sequential design bias', are identified. Both kinds of bia...

Accumulating Evidence of Insider Attacks.dvi

Insider attacks are often subtle and slow, posing the problem of integrating a large volume of event data from multiple sources over a long period. This paper proposes a scalable solution to combining evidence from multiple sources, by maintaining long-term estimates that nodes are subverted for each node in the system, rather than retaining event data for post-facto analysis. These estimates a...

Science: the slow march of accumulating evidence

Recent crises over the credibility of research in psychology and the biomedical sciences have highlighted the need for researchers to view and treat replication research as essential to the accumulation of knowledge. In this article, the authors make the case for the utility of replication in medical education research. Specifically, the authors contend that because research in medical educatio...

Aggregation via Bayesian

Is it possible to crowdsource categorization? Amongst the challenges: (a) each worker has only a partial view of the data, (b) different workers may have different clustering criteria and may produce different numbers of categories, (c) the underlying category structure may be hierarchical. We propose a Bayesian model of how workers may approach clustering and show how one may infer clusters / ...

Bayesian Aggregation for Hierarchical Classification

Large numbers of overlapping classes are found to be organized in hierarchies in many domains. In multi-label classification over such a hierarchy, members of a class must also belong to all of its parents. Training an independent classifier for each class is a common approach, but this may yield labels for a given example that collectively violate this constraint. We propose a principled metho...
