Model selection with Gini indices under auto-calibration

28 Jul 2022  ·  Mario V. Wüthrich ·

The Gini index does not give a strictly consistent scoring rule in general. Therefore, maximizing the Gini index may lead to wrong decisions. The main issue is that the Gini index is a rank-based score that is not calibration-sensitive. We show that the Gini index allows for strictly consistent scoring if we restrict to the class of auto-calibrated regression models.
