Noise derived information criterion for model selection
نویسندگان
چکیده
. This paper proposes a new complexity-penalization model selection strategy derived from the minimum risk principle and the behavior of candidate models under noisy conditions. This strategy seems to be robust in small sample size conditions and tends to AIC criterion as sample size grows up. The simulation study at the end of the paper will show that the proposed criterion is extremely competitive when compared to other state-of-the-art criteria.

Model Selection Based on Tracking Interval Under Unified Hybrid Censored Samples
The aim of statistical modeling is to identify the model that most closely approximates the underlying process. Akaike information criterion (AIC) is commonly used for model selection but the precise value of AIC has no direct interpretation. In this paper we use a normalization of a difference of Akaike criteria in comparing between the two rival models under unified hybrid cens...
متن کاملA theoretical investigation of several model selection criteria for dimensionality reduction
Based on the problem of determining the hidden dimensionality (or the number of latent factors) of Factor Analysis (FA) model, this paper provides a theoretic comparison on several classical model selection criteria, including Akaike’s Information Criterion (AIC), Bozdogan’s Consistent Akaike’s Information Criterion (CAIC), Hannan–Quinn information criterion (HQC), Schwarz’s Bayesian Informatio...

Based on the problem of detecting the number of signals, this paper provides a systematic empirical investigation on model selection performances of several classical criteria and recently developed methods (including Akaike’s information criterion (AIC), Schwarz’s Bayesian information criterion, Bozdogan’s consistent AIC, Hannan-Quinn information criterion, Minka’s (MK) principal component ana...
متن کاملThe Behaviour of the Akaike Information Criterion When Applied to Non-nested Sequences of Models
A typical approach to the problem of selecting between models of differing complexity is to choose the model with the minimum Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) score. This paper examines a common scenario in which there is more than one candidate model with the same number of free parameters which violates the conditions under which AIC was derived. The main result of this paper is a novel upp...
متن کاملModel selection based on Bayesian predictive densities and multiple data records
Bayesian predictive densities are used to derive model selection rules. The resulting rules hold for sets of data records where each record is composed of an unknown number of deterministic signals common to all the records and a stationary white Gaussian noise. To determine the correct model, the set of data records is partitioned into two disjoint subsets. One of the subsets is used for estim...
