LOO-PIT predictive model checking

Aki Vehtari, Herman Tesso

Leave-one-out PIT values are dependent in finite samples, so standard uniformity tests for Bayesian model calibration have lower power than expected.

Claims

C1strongest claim

We prove that this dependency is non-negligible in the finite case and depends on model complexity. We propose three testing procedures that can be used for continuous and discrete dependent uniform values... Extensive numerical experiments... demonstrate that the proposed tests achieve competitive performance overall and have much higher power than standard uniformity tests based on the independence assumption.

C2weakest assumption

The dependence structure induced by LOO predictive distributions can be adequately captured by the three proposed testing procedures without introducing new bias or power loss in realistic finite-sample regimes; the abstract provides no detail on how the tests are derived or calibrated.

C3one line summary

New tests for LOO-PIT uniformity account for non-negligible dependence caused by shared data across leave-one-out predictions, achieving higher power than independence-assuming alternatives.
