Abstract:
Abstract A conundrum of predictability research is that while the prediction of flow-dependent error distributions is one of its main foci, chaos fundamentally hides flow-dependent forecast error distributions from empirical observation. Empirical estimation of such error distributions requires a large sample of error realizations given the same flow-dependent conditions. However, chaotic elements of the flow and the observing network make it impossible to collect a large enough conditioned error sample to empirically define such distributions and their variance. Such conditional variances are

Abstract:
Ensemble variances provide a prediction of the flow-dependent error variance of the ensemble mean or, possibly, a high-resolution forecast. However, small ensemble size, unaccounted for model error, and imperfections in ensemble generation schemes cause the predictions of error variance to be imperfect. In previous work, the authors developed an analytic approximation to the posterior distribution of true error variances, given an imperfect ensemble prediction, based on parameters recovered from long archives of innovation and ensemble variance pairs.

Abstract In Part I of this study, a model of the distribution of true error variances given an ensemble variance is shown to be defined by six parameters that also determine the optimal weights for the static and flow-dependent parts of hybrid error variance models. Two of the six parameters (the climatological mean of forecast error variance and the climatological minimum of ensemble variance) are straightforward to estimate. The other four parameters are (i) the variance of the climatological distribution of the true conditional error variances, (ii) the climatological minimum of the true co

If a variable is measured (or estimated) with error, then the distribution of the measurements is flatter than the true distribution. The variance of a measured variable is the sum of the true variance and the measurement error variance. If we shrink measured values towards their mean so that the variance will be equal to the true population variance, or its estimate, the obtained empirical distribution is more similar to the true distribution than is the distribution of measured values. To estimate the population variance, an estimate of the variance of measurement errors is required. If stan

Least squares algorithms for data assimilation require estimates of both background error covariances and observational error covariances. The specification of these errors is an essential part of designing an assimilation system; the relative sizes of these uncertainties determine the extent to which the state variables are drawn toward the observational information. Observational error covariances are typically computed as the sum of measurement/instrumental errors and “representativeness error.” In a coarse-resolution ocean general circulation model the errors of representation are the domi

Abstract:
This study adopts a nonparametric approach in the estimation of a finite population error variance in the setting where the variance is a constant (homoscedastic) using a model-based technique under simple random sampling without replacement (SRSWOR). A mean square analysis of the estimator has been conducted, including the asymptotic behaviour of the estimator and the results show that the asymptotic distribution in a homoscedastic setting is asymptotically unbiased and consistent. The performance of the developed estimator is compared to that of other existing estimators using real data. R s

Abstract:
Combining forecasts is an established approach for improving forecast accuracy. So-called optimal weights (OWs) estimate combination weights by minimizing errors on past forecasts. Yet the most successful and common approach ignores all training data and assigns equal weights (EWs) to forecasts. We analyze this phenomenon by relating forecast combination to statistical learning theory, which decomposes forecast errors into three components: bias, variance, and irreducible error. In this framework, EWs minimize the variance component (errors resulting from estimation uncertainty) but ignore the

Abstract:
In the kinetic evaluation of chemical degradation data, degradation models are fitted to the data by varying degradation model parameters to obtain the best possible fit. Today, constant variance of the deviations of the observed data from the model is frequently assumed (error model “constant variance”). Allowing for a different variance for each observed variable (“variance by variable”) has been shown to be a useful refinement. On the other hand, experience gained in analytical chemistry shows that the absolute magnitude of the analytical error often increases with the magnitude of the obse

Abstract:
Hypothesis tests, such as normality tests, are extensively employed in Agricultural Sciences to evaluate the normality assumption of the F test in the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) when large sample sizes are unavailable. Nonetheless, researchers conducting these tests are exposed to the risk of committing type I or type II errors, with probabilities that are influenced by different experimental conditions. This study assesses the empirical type I error rate of hypothesis tests by considering the equality (inequality) of treatment means, the homogeneity (heterogeneity) of variances, and differe

Abstract:
Ensemble classification techniques such as bagging, (Breiman, 1996a), boosting (Freund & Schapire, 1997) and arcing algorithms (Breiman, 1997) have received much attention in recent literature. Such techniques have been shown to lead to reduced classification error on unseen cases. Even when the ensemble is trained well beyond zero training set error, the ensemble continues to exhibit improved classification error on unseen cases. Despite many studies and conjectures, the reasons behind this improved performance and understanding of the underlying probabilistic structures remain open and c

This paper reports a study into the errors of process forecasting under the conditions of uncertainty in the dynamics and observation noise using a self-adjusting Brown's zero-order model. The dynamics test models have been built for predicted processes and observation noises, which make it possible to investigate forecasting errors for the self-adjusting and adaptive models. The test process dynamics were determined in the form of a rectangular video pulse with a fixed unit amplitude, a radio pulse of the harmonic process with an amplitude attenuated exponentially, as well as a video pulse wi
