چکیده

We discuss the approach to estimate aggregation and adaptive estimation based upon (nearly optimal) testing of convex hypotheses. show that in situation where observations stem from simple observation schemes (Juditsky Nemirovski, 2020) set unknown signals is a finite union compact sets, proposed leads adaptation routines with nearly optimal performance. As an illustration, we consider application estimates problem recovery signal known belong ellitopes 2018 Gaussian scheme. The can be implemented efficiently when number sets “not very large.” conclude paper small simulation study illustrating practical performance procedures single-index model.

Aggregating disparate estimates of chance

We consider a panel of experts asked to assign probabilities to events, both logically simple and complex. The events evaluated by different experts are based on overlapping sets of variables but may otherwise be distinct. The union of all the judgments will likely be probabilistic incoherent. We address the problem of revising the probability estimates of the panel so as to produce a coherent ...

Characterizing and aggregating agent estimates

In many applications, agents (whether human or computational) provide estimates that must be combined at a higher level. Recent research distinguishes two kinds of such estimates: interpreted and generated data. These two kinds of data require different kinds of aggregation processes, which behave differently from an information geometric perspective: interpreted estimates require methods such ...

Aggregating Interval Orders by Propositional Optimization

Aggregating preferences for finding a consensus between several agents is an important issue in many fields, like economics, decision theory and artificial intelligence. In this paper we focus on the problem of aggregating interval orders which are special preference structures allowing the introduction of tresholds for the indifference relation. We propose to solve this problem by first transl...

Improving Estimates of Abundance by Aggregating Sparse Capture-Recapture Data

Inferences about abundance often are based on unadjusted counts of individuals observed, in part, because of the large amount of data required to generate reliable estimates of abundance. Where capture-recapture data are sparse, aggregating data across multiple sample elements by pooling species, locations, and sampling periods increases the information available for modeling detection probabil...

Hypothesis testing by convex optimization

We discuss a general approach to hypothesis testing. The main “building block” of the proposed construction is a test for a pair of hypotheses in the situation where each particular hypothesis states that the vector of parameters identifying the distribution of observations belongs to a convex compact set associated with the hypothesis. This test, under appropriate assumptions, is nearly optima...
