EDDIE Beats the Bookies
Investment involves the maximisation of return on one’s investment whilst minimising risk. Good forecasting, which often requires expert knowledge, can help to reduce risk. In this paper, we propose a genetic programming based system EDDIE, (which stands for Evolutionary Dynamic Data Investment Evaluator), as a forecasting tool. Genetic programming is inspired by evolution theory, and has been ...
متن کاملHow bookies make your money
UK bookies (bookmakers) herd geographically in less-affluent areas. The present work shows that UK bookies also herd with the special bets that they advertise to consumers, both in their shop window advertising and on TV adverts as shown to millions of viewers. I report an observational study of betting adverts over the 2014 soccer World Cup. Bet types vary in complexity, with complex types hav...
متن کاملA Bayes linear Bayes method for estimation of correlated event rates.
Typically, full Bayesian estimation of correlated event rates can be computationally challenging since estimators are intractable. When estimation of event rates represents one activity within a larger modeling process, there is an incentive to develop more efficient inference than provided by a full Bayesian model. We develop a new subjective inference method for correlated event rates based o...
متن کاملEmpirical bayes method for incorporating data from multiple genome scans.
Individual genome scans tend to have low power and can produce markedly biased estimates of QTL effects. Further, the confidence interval for their location is often prohibitively large for subsequent fine mapping and positional cloning. Given that a large number of genome scans have been conducted, not to mention the large number of variables and subsets tested, it is difficult to confidently ...
متن کاملBayes method for a Monotone Hazard Rate via S - paths
A class of random hazard rates, that is defined as a mixture of an indicator kernel convoluted with a completely random measure, is of interest. We provide an explicit characterization of the posterior distribution of this mixture hazard rate model via a finite mixture of S-paths. A closed and tractable Bayes estimator for the hazard rate is derived to be a finite sum over S-paths. The path cha...
