Scoring rule: Applications, Overview & Definitions

In decision theory, both a scoring rule as well as a scoring function provide an ex post summary measure for the evaluation of the quality of a prediction or forecast. They assign a numeric score to a single prediction given the actual outcome. Depending on the sign convention, this score can be interpreted as a loss or a reward for the forecaster.…
