The proposed model-free approach uses a Deep Neural Network (DNN) to achieve point prediction and prediction intervals under a general regression setting, eliminating the need for model assumptions. By applying a fully connected forward DNN to map input variables X and a reference random variable Z to output Y, the trained network minimizes a specially designed loss function that outsources the randomness of Y conditional on X to Z. This novel approach outperforms other standard alternatives, particularly in optimal point predictions, due to its increased stability and accuracy. The method is further verified through simulation and empirical studies.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
In this paper, scientists develop a new way to predict things without assuming what the relationship between variables looks like. They use a special kind of artificial intelligence called a Deep Neural Network (DNN) to make predictions about something based on other factors. This approach is better than others because it’s more accurate and reliable. The researchers tested their method using computer simulations and real-world data, and it worked really well.
