On comparison of non-Bayesian experts

نویسنده

چکیده

An expert, trying to assess the true distribution over the states of nature, is associated with a preference relation over utility bundles. He prefers f to g if he believes that, according to the true distribution, the expected utility of f is greater than that of g. Expert I is said to be more knowledgeable than expert II (Lefort [7]) if, between the two experts, it is always beneficial to follow his advice. It is shown that if experts’ maxmin preferences are induced by information consistent with the true distribution, then in most cases an expert having more information is not more knowledgeable.

Comparison of Estimates Using Record Statistics from Lomax Model: Bayesian and Non Bayesian Approaches

This paper address the problem of Bayesian estimation of the parameters, reliability and hazard function in the context of record statistics values from the two-parameter Lomax distribution. The ML and the Bayes estimates based on records are derived for the two unknown parameters and the survival time parameters, reliability and hazard functions. The Bayes estimates are obtained based on conju...

Comparison of Single and Multi-Step Bayesian Methods for Predicting Genomic Breeding Values in Genotyped and Non-Genotyped Animals- A Simulation Study

     The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of genomic evaluation for Bayes A, Bayes B, Bayes C and Bayes L multi-step methods and SSBR-C and SSBR-A single-step methods in the different values of π for predicting genomic breeding values of the genotyped and non-genotyped animals. A genome with 40000 SNPs on the 20 chromosom was simulated with the same distance (100cM). The π valu...

Comparison of two QTL mapping approaches based on Bayesian inference using high-dense SNPs markers

To compare different QTL mapping methods, a population with genotypic and phenotypic data was simulated. In Bayesian approach, all information of markers can be used along with combination of distributions of SNP markers. It is assumed that most of the markers (95%) have minor effects and a few numbers of markers (5%) exert major effects. The simulated population included a basic population of ...
