报告摘要:

We develop two simple measures of uncertainty for a model selection procedure. The first measure is similar in spirit to confidence set in parameter estimation; the second measure is focusing on error in model selection. The proposed methods are much simpler, both conceptually and computationally, than the existing measures of uncertain in model selection. We recognize major differences between model selection and traditional estimation or prediction problems, and propose reasonable frameworks, under which these measures are developed, and their asymptotic properties are established. Empirical studies demonstrate performance of the proposed measures, their superiority over the existing methods, and their relevance to real-life applications. Part of the work is jointly with Xiaohui Liu of Jiangxi University of Finance and Economics, and Yuanyuan Li of the University of California, Davis.
