The Well-Calibrated Bayesian
Abstract
Suppose that a forecaster sequentially assigns probabilities to events. He is well calibrated if, for example, of those events to which he assigns a probability 30 percent, the long-run proportion that actually occurs turns out to be 30 percent. We prove a theorem to the effect that a coherent Bayesian expects to be well calibrated, and consider its destructive implications for the theory of coherence.

Clarke, B. S. (2012) · Bayesian Analysis · doi:10.1214/12-ba701a
“This is important because it seems that the predictive perspective, advocated in statistics at least as early as Dawid (1982), has been becoming more widespread in recent years.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
