On not being rational.

I. Richard Savage (1980)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

A Bayesian decision-theoretic approach appears to me as a sensible idealization of a guide to behaviour. At the same time i would like to understand why my behaviour is not always of this form: I sometimes use randomization and I sometimes find confidence intervals acceptable. Not all of my problems have an explicit cost function. Am I lazy or irrational? Do I use non-Bayesian conventions to help communicate? Is the cost of rationality-computation missing from the Bayesian model? ...

Optimal alternative robustness in Bayesian Decision Theory.

Fabrizio Ruggeri, Jacinto Martín, David Ríos Insua (2003)

RACSAM

Similarity:

In Martin et al (2003), we suggested an approach to general robustness studies in Bayesian Decision Theory and Inference, based on ε-contamination neighborhoods. In this note, we generalise the results considering neighborhoods based on norms, specifically, the supremum norm for utilities and the total variation norm for probability distributions. We provide tools to detect changes in preferences between alternatives under perturbations of the prior and/or the utility and the most sensitive...
