Confidence intervals for nonlinear regression extrapolation
نویسنده
چکیده
The various methods of confidence intervals construction for nonlinear regression are considered. The new method named Ž . by a method of associated simulation the AS-method is proposed. Using computerized simulation, it is shown on the example that only two methods, the bootstrap and the AS-method, give a satisfactory accuracy. The advantage of the AS-method is the speed. In comparison with the bootstrap, the prize is at least 10 000 times. This method may be applied when regression parameters estimates are obtained by the maximum likelihood method. It was proposed to use the AS-method when extrapolation of complicated physico-chemical model is performed to predict the behavior of the model in the area far from observation. q 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.

Confidence regions and intervals in nonlinear regression ∗
This lecture presents some methods which we can apply in searching for confidence regions and intervals for true values of regression parameters. The nonlinear regression models with independent and identically distributed errors and Lp norm estimators are discussed.
متن کاملMulti-Grid Monte Carlo via XY Embedding I. General Theory and Two-Dimensional O(N)-Symmetric Nonlinear σ-Models
We introduce a variant of the multi-grid Monte Carlo (MGMC) method, based on the embedding of an XY model into the target model, and we study its mathematical properties for a variety of nonlinear σ-models. We then apply the method to the twodimensional O(N)-symmetric nonlinear σ-models (also called N -vector models) with N = 3, 4, 8 and study its dynamic critical behavior. Using lattices up to...
متن کاملAnalysis of regression confidence intervals and Bayesian credible intervals for uncertainty quantification
[1] Confidence intervals based on classical regression theories augmented to include prior information and credible intervals based on Bayesian theories are conceptually different ways to quantify parametric and predictive uncertainties. Because both confidence and credible intervals are used in environmental modeling, we seek to understand their differences and similarities. This is of interes...
متن کاملSeismic Wave-Field Propagation Modelling using the Euler Method
Wave-field extrapolation based on solving the wave equation is an important step in seismic modeling and needs a high level of accuracy. It has been implemented through a various numerical methods such as finite difference method as the most popular and conventional one. Moreover, the main drawbacks of the finite difference method are the low level of accuracy and the numerical dispersion for l...
متن کاملConstruction of Confidence Intervals in Neural Modeling Using a Linear Taylor Expansion
We introduce the theoretical results on the construction of confidence intervals for a nonlinear regression, based on the linear Taylor expansion of the corresponding nonlinear model output. The case of neural black-box modeling is then analyzed, and illustrated on an industrial application. We show that the linear Taylor expansion not only provides a confidence interval at any point of interes...
