[UAI] Question about information as utility

2018-03-23 Thread Robert Goldman
Somehow, it has seeped into my mind as received wisdom that for applications like experimental design for scientific inquiry, we use information gain as a utility measure. That is, if we want to apply decision theory/decision analysis to something like experimental design, we typically do not

I'm looking for some advice and particularly literature pointers for a question about the Bayesian stance. I'm interested in what approaches are suggested for handling the case where one's prior is qualitatively wrong. For example, imagine that I have chosen a normal distribution for a random
