Bigger uncertainties and the Big
We use Bayesian hierarchical models and recent results from the theory of minimax confidence interval estimation to study the effect of prior information in a cosmological inverse problem. We consider the effect of prior information on uncertainty estimates of a linear functional Lx of an infinite-dimensional model x, given noisy observations y = Kx+x. The model represents the cosmic microwave ...
متن کاملThe Bigger Brauer Group Is Really Big
I show that each étale n-cohomology class on noetherian schemes comes from a Čech cocycle, provided that any n-tuple of points admits an affine open neighborhood. Together with results of Raeburn and Taylor on the bigger Brauer group, this implies that for schemes such that each pair of points admits an affine open neighborhood, any étale Gm-gerbe comes from a coherent central separable algebra...
متن کاملBig data, bigger dilemmas: A critical review
The recent interest in Big Data has generated a broad range of new academic, corporate, and policy practices along with an evolving debate amongst its proponents, detractors, and skeptics. While the practices draw on a common set of tools, techniques, and technologies, most contributions to the debate come either from a particular disciplinary perspective or with an eye on a domain-specific iss...
متن کاملPredictive Modeling With Big Data: Is Bigger Really Better?
With the increasingly widespread collection and processing of "big data," there is natural interest in using these data assets to improve decision making. One of the best understood ways to use data to improve decision making is via predictive analytics. An important, open question is: to what extent do larger data actually lead to better predictive models? In this article we empirically demons...
متن کاملSTARR (STudy of Atherosclerosis with Ramipril and Rosiglitazone): is the biggest big enough?
etabolic abnormalities such as diabetes, obesity, insulin esistance, and dyslipidemia predispose to atherosclerosis sually via mechanisms involving endothelial activation, nflammation, increased oxidative stress, and thrombogensis (2). There is a need for effective strategies to reduce CV isk in subjects with early manifestations of these metabolic isorders. In this issue of the Journal, Lonn e...
