Abstract: | Predictive statisticians in the private sector face similar problems when trying to predict unexpected events, or when working from flawed or incomplete data. Simply turning the work over to machines won't help: most machine learning and statistical mining techniques also hold the assumption that historical data, which is used to train the machine-learning model, behaves similarly to the target data, to which the model is later applied. However, this assumption often does not hold as the data is obsolete, and it is often expensive or impractical to get the additional recent data that holds this assumption. |
