A simple application of FIC to model selection

Abstract

We have recently proposed a new information-based approach to model selection, the Frequentist Information Criterion (FIC), that reconciles information-based and frequentist inference. The purpose of this current paper is to provide a simple example of the application of this criterion and a demonstration of the natural emergence of model complexities with both AIC-like (N^0) and BIC-like ( N) scaling with observation number N. The application developed is deliberately simplified to make the analysis analytically tractable.
