Relevance-based prediction is a new approach to data driven forecasting which serves as a favorable alternative to both linear regression analysis and machine learning. In this episode, Mark Kritzman, one of the leading researchers in this field, joins us to discuss the seminal scientific innovations underlying this approach to predictions, namely the Prasanta Mahalanobis’ distance measure and Claude Shannon’s information theory.
We also discuss the three key tenets of relevance-based prediction, that of relevance, which measures the importance of an observation to a prediction, fit, which measures the reliability of each individual prediction task, and codependence, which holds that the choice of observations and predictive variables should be determined jointly for each individual prediction task. Get ready for a highly educational, stimulating, and demanding episode!
