On the logical development of statistical models.

Daniel Peña (1988)

Trabajos de Estadística

Similarity:

This paper presents a classification of statistical models using a simple and logical framework. Some remarks are made about the historical appearance of each type of model and the practical problems that motivated them. It is argued that the current stages of the statistical methodology for model building have arisen in response to the needs for more sophisticated procedures for building dynamic-explicative types of models. Some potentially important topics for future research are included. ...

Generalizations of the noisy-or model

Jiří Vomlel (2015)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

In this paper, we generalize the noisy-or model. The generalizations are three-fold. First, we allow parents to be multivalued ordinal variables. Second, parents can have both positive and negative influences on their common child. Third, we describe how the suggested generalization can be extended to multivalued child variables. The major advantage of our generalizations is that they require only one parameter per parent. We suggest a model learning method and report results of experiments...

Rough modeling - a bottom-up approach to model construction

Terje Loken, Jan Komorowski (2001)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Traditional data mining methods based on rough set theory focus on extracting models which are good at classifying unseen obj-ects. If one wants to uncover new knowledge from the data, the model must have a high descriptive quality-it must describe the data set in a clear and concise manner, without sacrificing classification performance. Rough modeling, introduced by Kowalczyk (1998), is an approach which aims at providing models with good predictive emphand descriptive qualities, in...
