    A Survey of Model Evaluation Approaches With a Tutorial on Hierarchical Bayesian Methods
    with Richard M. Shiffrin, Michael D. Lee, and Eric-Jan Wagenmakers
    Cognitive Science 32 (8): 1248-1284. 2008.
    This article reviews current methods for evaluating models in the cognitive sciences, including theoretically based approaches, such as Bayes factors and minimum description length measures; simulation approaches, including model mimicry evaluations; and practical approaches, such as validation and generalization measures. This article argues that, although often useful in specific settings, most of these approaches are limited in their ability to give a general assessment of models. This articl…Read more

    Planning Beyond the Next Trial in Adaptive Experiments: A Dynamic Programming Approach
    with Mark A. Pitt, Zhong-Lin Lu, and Jay I. Myung
    Cognitive Science 2234-2252. 2017.
    Experimentation is at the heart of scientific inquiry. In the behavioral and neural sciences, where only a limited number of observations can often be made, it is ideal to design an experiment that leads to the rapid accumulation of information about the phenomenon under study. Adaptive experimentation has the potential to accelerate scientific progress by maximizing inferential gain in such research settings. To date, most adaptive experiments have relied on myopic, one-step-ahead strategies in…Read more
