Probabilistic coherence and proper scoring rules

Machine Learning 2016-11-15 v1

Abstract

We provide self-contained proof of a theorem relating probabilistic coherence of forecasts to their non-domination by rival forecasts with respect to any proper scoring rule. The theorem appears to be new but is closely related to results achieved by other investigators.
