COMPUTATIONAL STUDY

Auditing Predictive Coverage in Automated Property Valuation: A Reproducible Study of 414 Transactions

Amelia Brooks Editorial pseudonym

Automated valuation models are often assessed by point-prediction error, yet valuation oversight also requires checking whether prediction intervals achieve their advertised uncertainty level. This computational study reports a completed secondary analysis of a public residential real-estate dataset containing 414 transactions from Sindian…

CONCEPTUAL RESEARCH

Risk-Calibrated Construction Schedule Forecasting

Maksym Tkachenko Editorial pseudonym

Construction schedule forecasting is often expected to do two jobs at once: estimate when work will finish and indicate how much confidence should be placed in that estimate. The construction studies examined here show that schedule risk can be represented through probabilistic dependencies, sequential progress dynamics, and uncertainty explored…

RESEARCH PROTOCOL

Incrementality Testing for AI-Assisted Real Estate Advertising: A Conceptual Research Protocol

Anna Belova Editorial pseudonym

AI-assisted real estate advertising is increasingly used to generate targeting, copy, and creative variants, yet the presence of algorithmic assistance does not itself establish incremental value. This protocol defines a bounded causal framework for testing whether AI-assisted advertising produces measurable lift beyond baseline targeting or…
