Think your method works?

  • Do you have a method for forecasting, timeseries analysis, statistical inference, bias correction, or recalibration?
  • Could you apply it to realtime forecasts of current events (like international politics, global economics, political stability, or health & technology trends)?
  • Are you willing to test it against humans and machines in a points-based crowdsourcing experiment?

If so, Team DAGGRE wants you.  We are deploying a unique combinatorial prediction market which will let you make conditional forecasts.  Our goal is to dramatically enhance the accuracy, precision, and timeliness in forecasts of strategic interest.

Want to learn more? We will be hosting an All-Inclusive Analysis Training Workshop in Los Angeles, CA in March for all interested participants. The workshop provides expert training and hands-on sessions to help you become better forecasters. You will have the opportunity to learn how to be better at “betting” in the prediction market, how to anticipate and correct cognitive biases, and about tools, techniques, and theories in the judgment and decision sciences that are used across government and industry to predict the future.

New to DAGGRE and not sure how it all works? That’s alright—we have also added a beginners training track to walk you through everything and have you feeling like an expert in no time!

Volunteers must be U.S. citizens at least 18 years of age.  Each month, active participants will be eligible to receive one of 60 awards provided as a $50 Amazon Gift Card.  Volunteers must not be participating in any other study in the ACE program. The study is being funded by IARPA and led by Charles Twardy at George Mason University.

For more information and to register, please visit daggre.org or email us at dag...@c4i.gmu.edu if you are interested in attending the workshop.
