Robust control and model misspecification
A decision maker fears that data are generated by a statistical perturbation of an approximating model that is either a controlled diffusion or a controlled measure over continuous functions of time. A perturbation is constrained in terms of its relative entropy. Several different two-player zero-sum games that yield robust decision rules and are related to one another, to the max-min expected ...
متن کاملInformational herding with model misspecification
This paper demonstrates that a misspecified model of information processing interferes with long-run learning and allows inefficient choices to persist in the face of contradictory public information. I consider an observational learning environment where agents observe a private signal about a hidden state, and some agents observe the actions of their predecessors. Prior actions aggregate mult...
متن کاملModel Misspecification in Peaks over Threshold Analysis
Classical peaks over threshold analysis is widely used for statistical modeling of sample extremes, and can be supplemented by a model for the sizes of clusters of exceedances. Under mild conditions a compound Poisson process model allows the estimation of the marginal distribution of threshold exceedances and of the mean cluster size, but requires the choice of a threshold and of a run paramet...
متن کاملImputation Estimators Partially Correct for Model Misspecification
Inference problems with incomplete observations often aim at estimating population properties of unobserved quantities. One simple way to accomplish this estimation is to impute the unobserved quantities of interest at the individual level and then take an empirical average of the imputed values. We show that this simple imputation estimator can provide partial protection against model misspeci...
متن کاملMisspecification in Mixed-Model-Based Association Analysis.
Additive genetic variance in natural populations is commonly estimated using mixed models, in which the covariance of the genetic effects is modeled by a genetic similarity matrix derived from a dense set of markers. An important but usually implicit assumption is that the presence of any nonadditive genetic effect increases only the residual variance and does not affect estimates of additive g...
