Judgmental Decomposition: When Does It Work?
We hypothesized that multiplicative decomposition would improve accuracy only in certain conditions. In particular, we expected it to help for problems involving extreme and uncertain values. We first reanalyzed results from two published studies. Decomposition improved accuracy for nine problems that involved extreme and uncertain values, but for six problems with target values that were not e...
متن کاملStacked Generalizations: When Does It Work?
Stacked generalization is a general method of using a high-level model to combine lower-level models to achieve greater predictive accuracy. In this paper we address two crucial issues which have been considered to be a `black art' in classiication tasks ever since the introduction of stacked generalization in 1992 by Wolpert: the type of generalizer that is suitable to derive the higher-level ...
متن کاملCatalytic finance: When does it work?
In a model of debt crisis caused partly by creditor coordination failure, we show that bailouts that reduce ex post inefficiency will sometimes enhance the incentives for governments to take costly adjustment effort. This model helps us understand a debate about the role of the IMF in catalyzing lending to developing countries. D 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
متن کاملOptimal diet theory: when does it work, and when and why does it fail?
Over the last three decades, many studies have attempted to explain forager diets by using optimal diet theory (ODT). Despite some obvious successes, the utility of this theory remains controversial. We reviewed the results of 134 studies of optimal diet theory to test hypotheses on factors that can explain variation in the ability of ODT to predict diets and diet shifts in response to changes ...
متن کاملDoes It Work?
T he study reported by Hess et all in this issue of Circulation presents a timely opportunity to discuss several issues that are directly relevant to use of angiographic methods for estimating myocardial perfusion. These issues are motivation for use of angiographic methods, limitations of the gold standard used, limitations of the angiographic method, limitations of the conceptual model used a...
