Boosted Regression (Boosting): An introductory tutorial and a Stata plugin
Boosting, or boosted regression, is a recent data mining technique that has shown considerable success in predictive accuracy. This article gives an overview over boosting and introduces a new Stata command, boost, that implements the boosting algorithm described in Hastie et al. (2001, p. 322). The plugin is illustrated with a Gaussian and a logistic regression example. In the Gaussian regress...
متن کاملPreference Handling - An Introductory Tutorial
We present a tutorial introduction to the area of preference handling – one of the core issues in the design of any system that automates or supports decision making. The main goal of this tutorial is to provide a framework, or perspective, within which current work on preference handling – representation, reasoning, and elicitation – can be understood. Our intention is not to provide a technic...
متن کاملEquivalence relations and behavior: an introductory tutorial.
With an emphasis on procedural fundamentals, the original behavior-analytic equivalence experiments and the equivalence paradigm are described briefly. A few of the subsequent developments and implications are noted, with special reference to the possible significance of the findings with respect to language and cognition.
متن کاملA Stata Plugin for Estimating Group-Based Trajectory Models
Group-based trajectory models are used to investigate population differences in the developmental courses of behaviors or outcomes . This article demonstrates a new Stata command, traj, for fitting to longitudinal data finite (discrete) mixture models designed to identify clusters of individuals following similar progressions of some behavior or outcome over age or time. Censored normal, Poisso...
متن کاملRobust Regression in Stata
In regression analysis, the presence of outliers in the data set can strongly distort the classical least squares estimator and lead to unreliable results. To deal with this, several robust-to-outliers methods have been proposed in the statistical literature. In Stata, some of these methods are available through the commands rreg and qreg. Unfortunately, these methods only resist to some specif...
