Repeat Voting: Two-Vote May Lead More People To Vote
Sergiu Hart
A "repeat voting" procedure is proposed, whereby voting is carried out in two identical rounds. Every voter can vote in each round, the results of the first round are made public b…
Forecast Hedging and Calibration
Dean P. Foster, Sergiu Hart
Calibration means that forecasts and average realized frequencies are close. We develop the concept of forecast hedging, which consists of choosing the forecasts so as to guarantee…
Smooth Calibration, Leaky Forecasts, Finite Recall, and Nash Dynamics
Dean P. Foster, Sergiu Hart
We propose to smooth out the calibration score, which measures how good a forecaster is, by combining nearby forecasts. While regular calibration can be guaranteed only by randomiz…
Posterior Probabilities: Nonmonotonicity, Asymptotic Rates, Log-Concavity, and Turán's Inequality
Sergiu Hart, Yosef Rinott
In the standard Bayesian framework data are assumed to be generated by a distribution parametrized by in a parameter space , over which a prior distribution is given. A…
Posterior Probabilities: Dominance and Optimism
Sergiu Hart, Yosef Rinott
The Bayesian posterior probability of the true state is stochastically dominated by that same posterior under the probability law of the true state. This generalizes to notions of…
