Statistical Evidence Measured on a Properly Calibrated Scale across Nested and Non-nested Hypothesis Comparisons
Statistical modeling is often used to measure the strength of evidence for or against hypotheses about given data. We have previously proposed an information-dynamic framework in support of a properly calibrated measurement scale for statistical evidence, borrowing some mathematics from thermodynamics, and showing how an evidential analogue of the ideal gas equation of state could be used to me...
متن کاملStatistical Evidence Measured on a Properly Calibrated Scale for Multinomial Hypothesis Comparisons
Measurement of the strength of statistical evidence is a primary objective of statistical analysis throughout the biological and social sciences. Various quantities have been proposed as definitions of statistical evidence, notably the likelihood ratio, the Bayes factor and the relative belief ratio. Each of these can be motivated by direct appeal to intuition. However, for an evidence measure ...
متن کاملReality Checks and Nested Forecast Model Comparisons
This paper develops a novel and e¤ective bootstrap method for simulating asymptotic critical values for tests of equal forecast accuracy and encompassing among many nested models. The bootstrap, which combines elements of xed regressor and wild bootstrap methods, is simple to use. We rst derive the asymptotic distributions of tests of equal forecast accuracy and encompassing applied to foreca...
متن کاملAnother Approach to Comparing Nested and Non-nested Samples
Confronted with the revelation that the 24 possible non-nested samples reuse the same subplots in various fashions, I’m having second thoughts about the methods I proposed to you. It’s not so much that many of the non-nested sample estimates will be correlated with each other (because they share observations), but more that the correlation varies (because the number of observations shared betwe...
متن کاملNon-nested Hypotheses
This article provides an overview of the literature on hypotheses testing when the hypotheses or models under consideration are non-nested. Two models are said to be non-nested if neither can be obtained from the other by some limiting process, including the imposition of equality and/or inequality constrains on one of the model's parameters. Relevant concepts such as closeness measures and pse...
