Score-Based LR
Definition
Evaluation of a specified comparison score under competing propositions and a validated model. Validation should address the intended material and operating conditions. A correlation score is not itself a likelihood ratio or a posterior probability.
- Context
- Comparison statistics
For example, a high comparison score needs calibrated distributions under stated alternatives before it can be expressed as an evidential likelihood ratio.
Calibration and assumptions determine the evidential interpretation.
