Same-decision probability: A confidence measure for threshold-based decisions
We consider in this paper the robustness of decisions based on probabilistic thresholds. To this effect, we propose the same-decision probability as a query that can be used as a confidence measure for threshold-based decisions. More specifically, the same-decision probability is the probability that we would have made the same threshold-based decision, had we known the state of some hidden var...
متن کاملSame-Decision Probability: A Confidence Measure for Threshold-Based Decisions under Noisy Sensors
We consider in this paper the robustness of decisions based on probabilistic thresholds under noisy sensor readings. In particular, we consider the stability of these decisions under different assumptions about the causal mechanisms that govern the output of a sensor. To this effect, we propose the same-decision probability as a query that can be used as a confidence measure for threshold-based...
متن کاملThe Same-Decision Probability: A New Tool for Decision Making
When using graphical models for decision making, a fundamental question is whether one is ready to make a decision (stopping criteria), and if not, what observations should be made to better prepare for a decision (selection criteria). In this paper, we review the notions of entropy and expected utility, which are commonly used for this purpose, and contrast them with a newly introduced notion,...
متن کاملClimate Change Assessments: Confidence, Probability and Decision∗
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has developed a novel framework for assessing and communicating uncertainty in the findings published in their periodic assessment reports. But how should these uncertainty assessments inform decisions? We take a formal decision-making perspective to investigate how scientific input formulated in the IPCC’s novel framework might inform decisions in ...
