This paper presents a new Bayesian methodology for predicting a turning point in an economic system. The methodology utilizes information-theoretic measurements for assessing likelihood functions for a turning point. This methodology shows that the total information of a likelihood function...

The problem of modeling the revision of the information of a decision maker based on the information of the expert sources is considered. The basic model assumes that the information of the decision maker and expert sources is in the form of the probability mass functions. The modeling approach...

In modeling a combination of forecasts all the information related to the past performance of the individual forecasts, including accuracy and correlation, is considered. In this paper I have extended the modeling to incorporate a rank ordering of the forecasts by a decision maker. This ordering...
