On July 18, 2024, our very own @rajivatbarnard, professor of economics, collaborated with several researchers, including Barnard (@BarnardCollege) affiliates, in writing and publishing new research in the Proceedings of the ACM Collective Intelligence Conference (CI ’24).
The paper, “Evaluating Prediction Mechanisms: A Profitability Test,” proposes a method of assessing the accuracy of any forecasting model by examining the profitability of a virtual trader in a prediction market.
