Hi Lars,
 
Those links show a minimum of 50% positive.   However, it is important to note that a method needs to be over 50% positive, so the leaderboard link can be adjusted to this link (https://bit.ly/2QuIumY) in order to see who is currently in the leaderboard slots.  It’s important to note that the leaderboard may shift if any of the IFPs re-resolve prior to the final IFP resolution at the end of the month.  See forum post about the final leaderboard here: https://www.herox.com/IARPAGFChallenge/forum/thread/3444
 
Thank you!
GF Challenge Team

@Kyla Jeffrey
Are you 100% certain about your link https://bit.ly/2Md9PHc ? When I follow it I get the picture below. Which I don't mind at all, I'm in 2nd place, but it's not what I expected. It is constrained to an April-June period and there are no participation requirements.

@Lars Ericson
Good catch -- here is the correct link: https://bit.ly/2QuIumY. Thanks, Lars.

One question, can you explain the different results between GFC Leaderboard and Beat HFC Leaderboard with same parameter 70% &30%? There are two methods better than Benchmark on the former, while 13 better than Benchmark on the latter.

Thanks!

@truthLover
One is sorting on net brier points and the other on average daily brier points. You may be expecting

GFC.NetBrierPoints(Method) = HFC.Brier(Benchmark)-HFC.Brier(Method)

However, I think this is not the case, because one leaderboard uses Mean Daily Brier and the other uses Average Daily Brier or something like that, which are like oranges and grapefruit. There was some discussion of this very early on here: https://www.herox.com/IARPAGFChallenge/forum/thread/2870?page=1#post-11124 If that ends up making any sense to you, maybe you can post a summary recap here for the rest of us!

Also, I see you are currently getting burned by the 50.01% thing Kyla announced above in the thread. Good luck on the last question! Here the value judgment is whether 98%/50.00%/-8.14 is lower performance than 85%/53.62%/-12.24. Hard to say! Clearly it seems like where there is a multi-axis metric, it might be easier on people's nerves to combine it into a single number with some formula.

Thanks, Lars, I will take a look at the link. Also, thank you for your kind words!

@truthLover
I hope to see you at the Workshop anyway even if you get burned. They are offering Lightning Talk spots for people out of the top 5. You're at the top of the board for a couple of Domain awards (https://www.herox.com/IARPAGFChallenge/update/2109), so you should have enough cash for a luxury tour of Fairfax County.

Again, thank you, Lars. Due to schedule, my team may not be able to attend this Workshop.

@truthLover, would it alter the attendance utility function if we could prevail on IARPA to bring in an ample supply of Duck Donuts each morning? https://www.duckdonuts.com/location/alexandria-va/

@Lars, perhaps, who knows? :)
