Crucially, it takes into account the uncertainty inherent in our experiments. There is also uncertainty related to our modeling choices — did we select the correct polynomial embedding function $f(x)$, or is the true relationship better described by a different polynomial embedding?

Quantification of forecast uncertainty via simulation-based prediction intervals. In the first plot, the raw weekly actuals (in red) are adjusted for a level change in September 2011 and an anomalous spike near October 2012. Prediction Intervals A statistical forecasting system should not lack uncertainty quantification.

The bucketing method also changes the importance sampling to a stratified sampling setting, and allows us to use binomial confidence intervals to estimate the uncertainty of our estimate (more on that later). 5] Ray Chambers, Robert Clark (2012). Whether or not we borrow strength from other scores also impacts the estimation.
