Density Forecast Combination
In this paper we investigate whether and how far density forecasts sensibly can be combined to produce a “better” pooled density forecast. In so doing we bring together two important but hitherto largely unrelated areas of the forecasting literature in economics, density forecasting and forecast combination. We provide simple Bayesian methods of pooling information across alternative density fo...
متن کاملPractical Considerations in Forecast Value Added (FVA) Analysis
Gilliland defines FVA as “the change in a forecasting performance metric that can be PREVIEW A business forecast is normally produced by applying overrides and modifications to an initial statistical forecast. Whether these adjustments to the statistical forecast improve forecast performance is always an important question – one to which the Forecast Value Added (FVA) concept can be applied. In...
متن کاملPractical considerations for optimal designs in clinical dose finding studies.
A key objective in the clinical development of a medicinal drug is the determination of an adequate dose level and, more broadly, the characterization of its dose response relationship. If the dose is set too high, safety and tolerability problems are likely to result, while selecting too low a dose makes it difficult to establish adequate efficacy in the confirmatory phase, possibly leading to...
متن کاملPractical common weights MOLP approach for efficiency analysis
A characteristic of data envelopment analysis (DEA) is to allow individual decision making units (DMUs) to select the factor weights that are the most advantages for them in calculating their efficiency scores. This flexibility in selecting the weights, on the other hand, deters the comparison among DMUs on a common base. For dealing with this difficulty and assessing all the DMUs on the same s...
