"Optimal prediction of positive-valued spatial processes: Asymmetric po" by Alan R. Pearse, Noel Cressie et al.
This article studies the use of asymmetric loss functions for the optimal prediction of positive-valued spatial processes. We focus on the family of power-divergence loss functions with properties such as continuity, convexity, connections to well known divergence measures, and the ability to control the asymmetry and behaviour of the loss function via a power parameter. The properties of power-divergence loss functions, optimal power-divergence (OPD) spatial predictors, and related measures of ...
