Whither Real Interest Rates for the next 30 Years?

Andrew White

A new blog from the IMF came my way and it looked interesting: Interest Rates Likely to Return Toward Pre-Pandemic Levels When Inflation is Tamed. The blog refers to some research from the IMF that looks at the long term drivers of long-term interest rates. The IMF blog has a chart showing this trend. ” This I get.

ML internals: Synthetic Minority Oversampling (SMOTE) Technique

Domino Data Lab

In this article we discuss why fitting models on imbalanced datasets is problematic, and how class imbalance is typically addressed. def get_neigbours(M, k): nn = NearestNeighbors(n_neighbors=k+1, metric="euclidean").fit(M) from sklearn.neighbors import NearestNeighbors from random import randrange. return synthetic.

Estimating the prevalence of rare events — theory and practice

The Unofficial Google Data Science Blog

Of course, any mistakes by the reviewers would propagate to the accuracy of the metrics, and the metrics calculation should take into account human errors. If we could separate bad videos from good videos perfectly, we could simply calculate the metrics directly without sampling. The missing verdicts create two problems.

To Balance or Not to Balance?

The Unofficial Google Data Science Blog

The choice of space $cal F$ (sometimes called the model ) and loss function $L$ explicitly defines the estimation problem. In the presence of model misspecification, the estimator $hatpsi$ is inconsistent. As a result, estimators that focus on covariate balancing are also susceptible to being inconsistent due to model misspecification.
