摘要翻译:
统计决策理论的Wald发展解决了用样本数据进行决策的问题。Wald的统计决策函数(SDF)的概念包含了[data->decision]形式的所有映射。SDF不需要执行统计推断;也就是说,它不需要使用数据来得出关于自然真实状态的结论。基于推理的SDF具有顺序形式[数据->推理->决策]。本文将基于推理的SDFs作为决策的实用程序,可以实现Wald的一些设想。本文首先讨论二元选择问题,其中所有的SDF都可以看作是假设检验。接下来,它考虑Ias if优化,它使用真实状态的点估计,好像估计是准确的。然后,它将这一思想扩展到假设最大化决策和极小极大后悔决策,这两种决策使用真实状态的某些特征的点估计,就好像它们是准确的一样。本文主要采用有限样本最大遗憾来评价基于推理的SDFS的性能。为了说明抽象的想法,它提出了关于治疗选择和点预测与样本数据的具体发现。

英文摘要:
The Wald development of statistical decision theory addresses decision making with sample data. Wald's concept of a statistical decision function (SDF) embraces all mappings of the form [data -> decision]. An SDF need not perform statistical inference; that is, it need not use data to draw conclusions about the true state of nature. Inference-based SDFs have the sequential form [data -> inference -> decision]. This paper motivates inference-based SDFs as practical procedures for decision making that may accomplish some of what Wald envisioned. The paper first addresses binary choice problems, where all SDFs may be viewed as hypothesis tests. It next considers as-if optimization, which uses a point estimate of the true state as if the estimate were accurate. It then extends this idea to as-if maximin and minimax-regret decisions, which use point estimates of some features of the true state as if they were accurate. The paper primarily uses finite-sample maximum regret to evaluate the performance of inference-based SDFs. To illustrate abstract ideas, it presents specific findings concerning treatment choice and point prediction with sample data.
