Prediction With Expert Advice For The Brier Game
Abstract
We show that the Brier game of prediction is mixable and find the optimal learning rate and substitution function for it. The resulting prediction algorithm is applied to predict results of football and tennis matches, with well-known bookmakers playing the role of experts. The theoretical performance guarantee is not excessively loose on the football data set and is rather tight on the tennis data set. [abs] [ pdf ][ bib ] © JMLR 2009. (edit, beta)
