of neutrality for probabilistic models, η-neutrality, and introduce a systematic method that uses the maximum likelihood estimation to enforce the neutrality of a prediction model. Our method can be applied to various machine learning algorithms, as demonstrated by η-neutral logistic regression and η-neutral

This paper provides a simple example of an economy in which equi-librium prices and quantities exhibit what may be the central feature of the modern business cycle: a systematic relation between the rate of change in nominal prices and the level of real output. The relationship,

We address the problem of predicting a word from previous words in a sample of text. In particular we discuss n-gram models based on calsses of words. We also discuss several statistical algoirthms for assigning words to classes based on the frequency of their co-occurrence with other words. We

In this paper, we propose to use coordinates-based mechanisms in a peer-to-peer architecture to predict Internet network distance (i.e. round-trip propagation and transmission delay) . We study two mechanisms. The first is a previously proposed scheme, called the triangulated heuristic, which

Numerical weather prediction (NWP) now provides major guidance in our daily weather forecast. The accuracy of NWP models has improved steadily since the first successful experiment made by Charney, Fj!rtoft and von Neuman (1950). During the past 50 years, a large number of technical papers

Model predictive control is a form of control in which the current control action is obtained by solving, at each sampling instant, a finite horizon open-loop optimal control problem, using the current state of the plant as the initial state; the optimization yields an optimal control sequence
