The Least Wrong Model Is Not in the Data

نویسنده

چکیده

The true process that generated data cannot be determined when multiple explanations are possible. Prediction requires a model of the probability that a process, chosen randomly from the set of candidate explanations, generates some future observation. The best model includes all of the information contained in the minimal description of the data that is not contained in the data. It is closely related to the Halting Problem and is logarithmic in the size of the data. Prediction is difficult because the ideal model is not computable, and the best computable model is not “findable.” However, the error from any approximation can be bounded by the size of the description using the

Identification of outliers types in multivariate time series using genetic algorithm

Multivariate time series data, often, modeled using vector autoregressive moving average (VARMA) model. But presence of outliers can violates the stationary assumption and may lead to wrong modeling, biased estimation of parameters and inaccurate prediction. Thus, detection of these points and how to deal properly with them, especially in relation to modeling and parameter estimation of VARMA m...

Comparing the Efficiency of Dmus with Normal and Skew-Normal Distribution using Data Envelopment Analysis

  Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a nonparametric approach to evaluate theefficiency of decision making units (DMU) using mathematical programmingtechniques. Almost, all of the previous researches in stochastic DEA have been usedthe stochastic data when the inputs and outputs are normally distributed. But, thisassumption may not be true in practice. Therefore, using a normal distribution wi...

A novel risk-based analysis for the production system under epistemic uncertainty

Risk analysis of production system, while the actual and appropriate data is not available, will cause wrong system parameters prediction and wrong decision making. In uncertainty condition, there are no appropriate measures for decision making. In epistemic uncertainty, we are confronted by the lack of data. Therefore, in calculating the system risk, we encounter vagueness that we have to use ...

Development of a Pharmacogenomics Model based on Support Vector Regression with Optimal Features Selection Approach to Determine the Initial Therapeutic Dose of Warfarin Anticoagulant Drug

Introduction: Using artificial intelligence tools in pharmacogenomics is one of the latest bioinformatics research fields. One of the most important drugs that determining its initial therapeutic dose is difficult is the anticoagulant warfarin. Warfarin is an oral anticoagulant that, due to its narrow therapeutic window and complex interrelationships of individual factors, the selection of its ...
