Domain-specific

• Gamma-minimax inference
  • … sampling model, action and parameter spaces, loss, prior class Gamma, risk orientation, admissibility conditions, supremum, optimizer, and existence or approximation guarantees are explicit. to An applied instance preserves the same invariant under a changed scale, notation, jurisdiction, dataset, or implementation..

• Scoring Rule
  • … verification in meteorology. The logarithmic loss is `S(P,y)=-log p(y)`, assigning a large penalty to an outcome given very small probability and infinite loss to an event assigned zero probability under the ideal mathematical form; Good linked this logarithmic score to rational probability assessment and information.
