PDF-Chapter Prediction Error Methods How far can we go by optimizing the predictive performance

The idea is that rather than a plain least squares approach or a statistical maximum likelihood approach there is a third important principle in use for estimating the parameters of a dynamic model based on recorded observations This technique consi. This is useful only in the case where we know the precise model family and parameter values for the situation of interest But this is the exception not the rul e for both scienti64257c inquiry and human learning inference Most of the time we are in g Gaussian so only the parameters eg mean and variance need to be estimated Maximum Likelihood Bayesian Estimation Non parametric density estimation Assume NO knowledge about the density Kernel Density Estimation Nearest Neighbor Rule brPage 3br CSC What is the idea behind modeling real world phenomena Mathemat ically modeling an aspect of the real world enables us to better understand it and better explain it and perhaps enables us to reproduce it either on a large scale or on a simpli64257ed gutmannhelsinki Dept of Mathematics Statistics Dept of Computer Science and HIIT University of Helsinki aapohyvarinenhelsinki Abstract We present a new estimation principle for parameterized statistical models The idea is to perform nonlinear logist Diana Cole.
