Estimating exposure using kriging: a simulation study.
Retrospective studies of disease often are limited by the resolution of the exposure measurements. For example, in a typical study of adverse health effects from contaminated groundwater, the number of wells sampled may range from only a few to as many as several dozen, while the number of cases and controls may be in the hundreds or more. To derive individual estimates of exposure for wells th...
متن کاملRobust Simulation-optimization Methods Using Kriging Metamodels
Acknowledgements Now that I become closer and closer to the end of this adventure, I would like to deeply thank some people who helped me — in different ways and at different stages of my PhD — to achieve this goal. First of all, I want to thank my advisors: Carlo Meloni, for having introduced me to the fascinating world of research, for his being always so supportive to me, and for his willing...
متن کاملa study on rate making and required reserves determination in reinsurance market: a simulation
reinsurance is widely recognized as an important instrument in the capital management of an insurance company as well as its risk management tool. this thesis is intended to determine premium rates for different types of reinsurance policies. also, given the fact that the reinsurance coverage of every company depends upon its reserves, so different types of reserves and the method of their calc...
Estimating copula measure using ranks and subsampling: a simulation study
We describe here a new method to estimate copula measure. From N observations of two variables X and Y , we draw a huge number m of subsamples (size n < N), and we compute the joint ranks in these subsamples. Then, for p, q ≤ n, the density in (p/n, q/n) is estimated as 1 mn Pm s=1 Pn i=1 {Ri,s=p,Si,s=q} where Ri,s (respectively Si,s) is the rank in X (resp. Y ) of the i observation of the s sa...
