Bayesian Nets for Life Cycle Cost Forecasting
Plant and system operators are looking for reliable products meeting high technical requirements while providing maximum economic benefit throughout the life cycle. Calculating life cycle costs different operating conditions have to be considered to provide reliable decision making assistance. If data for a direct probability measurement may not be available, expert knowledge needs to be consid...
متن کاملA Bayesian Approach for the Recognition of Control Chart Patterns
In this research, an iterative approach is employed to recognize and classify control chart patterns. To do this, by taking new observations on the quality characteristic under consideration, the Maximum Likelihood Estimator of pattern parameters is first obtained and then the probability of each pattern is determined. Then using Bayes’ rule, probabilities are updated recursively. Finally, when...
متن کاملExploiting the errors: A simple approach for improved volatility forecasting
We propose a new family of easy-to-implement realized volatility based forecasting models. The models exploit the asymptotic theory for high-frequency realized volatility estimation to improve the accuracy of the forecasts. By allowing the parameters of the models to vary explicitly with the (estimated) degree of measurement error, the models exhibit stronger persistence, and in turn generate m...
متن کاملThe Bayesian Approach to Forecasting
INTRODUCTION The Bayesian approach uses a combination of a priori and post priori knowledge to model time series data. That is, we know if we toss a coin we expect a probability of 0.5 for heads or for tails—this is a priori knowledge. Therefore, if we take a coin and toss it 10 times, we will expect five heads and five tails. But if the actual result is ten heads, we may lose confidence in our...
متن کاملCost Analysis of Acceptance Sampling Models Using Dynamic Programming and Bayesian Inference Considering Inspection Errors
Acceptance Sampling models have been widely applied in companies for the inspection and testing the raw material as well as the final products. A number of lots of the items are produced in a day in the industries so it may be impossible to inspect/test each item in a lot. The acceptance sampling models only provide the guarantee for the producer and consumer that the items in the lots are acco...
