Local and regional coherence utility assessment procedures.

Melvin R. Novick, D. F. Dekeyrel, D. T. Chuang (1980)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

Novick and Lindley (1978, 1979) have dealt with the use of utility functions for applications in education and have advocated the use of the standard gamble (von Neumann and Morgenstern, 1953) elicitation procedure with the addition of coherence checking using overspecification and a least squares fit. In this procedure utilities are inferred from probability judgements offered by the assessor. This paper describes local and regional coherence procedures which seek utility coherence...

Some history of the hierarchical Bayesian methodology.

Irving John Good (1980)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

A standard tecnique in subjective Bayesian methodology is for a subject (you) to make judgements of the probabilities that a physical probability lies in various intervals. In the Bayesian hierarchical technique you make probability judgements (of a higher type, order, level or stage) concerning the judgements of lower type. The paper will outline some of the history of this hierarchical technique with emphasis on the contributions by I. J. Good because I have read every word written...

Robust inference in probability under vague information.

Giuliana Regoli (1996)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

Vague information can be represented as comparison of previsions or comparison of probabilities, and a robust analysis can be done, in order to make inference about some quantity of interest and to measure the imprecision of the answers. In particular, in some decision problems the answer can be unique.
