Calibration with confidence: a principled method for panel assessment

Calibration with confidence: a principled method for panel assessment

Frequently, a set of objects has to be evaluated by a panel of assessors, but not every object is assessed by every assessor. A problem facing such panels is how to take into account different standards among panel members and varying levels of confidence in their scores. Here, a mathematically based algorithm is developed to calibrate the scores of such assessors, addressing both of these issu...

a new approach to credibility premium for zero-inflated poisson models for panel data

هدف اصلی از این تحقیق به دست آوردن و مقایسه حق بیمه باورمندی در مدل های شمارشی گزارش نشده برای داده های طولی می باشد. در این تحقیق حق بیمه های پبش گویی بر اساس توابع ضرر مربع خطا و نمایی محاسبه شده و با هم مقایسه می شود. تمایل به گرفتن پاداش و جایزه یکی از دلایل مهم برای گزارش ندادن تصادفات می باشد و افراد برای استفاده از تخفیف اغلب از گزارش تصادفات با هزینه پائین خودداری می کنند، در این تحقیق ...

A Principled Method for Exploiting Opening Books

We used in the past a lot of computational power and human expertise for having a very big dataset of good 9x9 Go games, in order to build an opening book. We improved a lot the algorithm used for generating these games. Unfortunately, the results were not very robust, as (i) opening books are definitely not transitive, making the non-regression testing extremely difficult and (ii) different ti...

Criterion of Calibration for Transductive Confidence Machine with Limited Feedback

This paper is concerned with the problem of on-line prediction in the situation where some data is unlabelled and can never be used for prediction, and even when data is labelled, the labels may arrive with a delay. We construct a modification of randomised Transductive Confidence Machine for this case and prove a necessary and sufficient condition for its predictions being calibrated, in the s...
