A Statistical Theory of Calibration

Statistical calibration: A simplification of Foster's proof

Foster (1999) has given a proof of the Calibration Theorem of Foster and Vohra (1998), using the Approachability Theorem proposed by Blackwell (1956). This note presents a simplified version of Foster’s argument, invoking the specialization given by Greenwald et Al (2006) of Blackwell’s Theorem.

efl/esl textbooks have been regarded as essential language teaching materials with which the learners spend about 70 up to 90 percent of their class time. the important role they play and their vast use make them not only influential in learning the language but also in shaping values and attitudes. put it another way, textbooks socialize learners using their contents (i.e. texts, illustrations...

the innovation of a statistical model to estimate dependable rainfall (dr) and develop it for determination and classification of drought and wet years of iran

آب حاصل از بارش منبع تأمین نیازهای بی شمار جانداران به ویژه انسان است و هرگونه کاهش در کم و کیف آن مستقیماً حیات موجودات زنده را تحت تأثیر منفی قرار می دهد. نوسان سال به سال بارش از ویژگی های اساسی و بسیار مهم بارش های سالانه ایران محسوب می شود که آثار زیان بار آن در تمام عرصه های اقتصادی، اجتماعی و حتی سیاسی- امنیتی به نحوی منعکس می شود. چون میزان آب ناشی از بارش یکی از مولفه های اصلی برنامه ...

Calibration of TPM: Theory

To gain more confidence in our understanding of the apparatus and analysis, we compared our experimental calibration curve to one we generated from a mathematical model of the system, following [1, 2]. The root-mean-square excursion of the projected bead location away from its tether point is controlled by various competing effects: (i) In the absence of any bead or wall, the chain’s endpoint w...
