Nonparametric estimation of the multivariate survivor function: the multivariate Kaplan–Meier estimator

Variance Function Estimation in Multivariate Nonparametric Regression

Variance function estimation in multivariate nonparametric regression is considered and the minimax rate of convergence is established. Our work uses the approach that generalizes the one used in Munk et al (2005) for the constant variance case. As is the case when the number of dimensions d = 1, and very much contrary to the common practice, it is often not desirable to base the estimator of t...

Nonparametric adaptive time-dependent multivariate function estimation

We consider the nonparametric estimation problem of time-dependent multivariate functions observed in a presence of additive cylindrical Gaussian white noise of a small intensity. We derive minimax lower bounds for the L-risk in the proposed spatio-temporal model as the intensity goes to zero, when the underlying unknown response function is assumed to belong to a ball of appropriately construc...

Multivariate Nonparametric Volatility Density Estimation

We consider a continuous-time stochastic volatility model. The model contains a stationary volatility process, the multivariate density of the finite dimensional distributions of which we aim to estimate. We assume that we observe the process at discrete instants in time. The sampling times will be equidistant with vanishing distance. A multivariate Fourier-type deconvolution kernel density est...

the application of multivariate probit models for conditional claim-types (the case study of iranian car insurance industry)

هدف اصلی نرخ گذاری بیمه ای تعیین نرخ عادلانه و منطقی از دیدگاه بیمه گر و بیمه گذار است. تعین نرخ یکی از مهم ترین مسایلی است که شرکتهای بیمه با آن روبرو هستند، زیرا تعیین نرخ اصلی ترین عامل در رقابت بین شرکتها است. برای تعیین حق بیمه ابتدا می باید مقدار مورد انتظار ادعای خسارت برای هر قرارداد بیمه را برآورد کرد. روش عمومی مدل سازی خسارتهای عملیاتی در نظر گرفتن تواتر و شدت خسارتها می باشد. اگر شر...
