Using Extreme Value Theory to Estimate Value-at-Risk
Martin Odening and Jan Hinrichs Abstract: This article examines problems that may occur when conventional Value-at-Risk (VaR) estimators are used to quantify market risks in an agricultural context. For example, standard VaR methods, such as variance-covariance method or historical simulation, can fail when the return distribution is fat tailed. This problem is aggravated when long-term VaR for...
متن کاملCategory: Evolutionary Programming Discover Probabilistic Knowledge from Databases Using Evolutionary Computation and Minimum Description Length Principle
We have developed a new approach (MDLEP) to learning Bayesian network structures based on the Minimum Description Length (MDL) principle and Evolutionary Programming (EP). It integrates a MDL metric founded on information theory and several new genetic operators including structure-guided operators, a knowledge-guided operator, a freeze operator, and a defrost operator for the discovery process...
متن کاملUsing Probabilistic Logic Programming to Find Patterns
This short paper, briefly presents the probabilistic logic programming language ProbLog and the system MetaProbLog. We present an example Hidden Markov Model to illustrate the three main tasks of the system. Furthermore, we mention some of the existing ProbLog applications which are used to find connections/patterns in relational databases. Finally, we present an application that uses MetaProbL...
متن کاملUsing Genetic Programming to Generate Protocol Adaptors for Interprocess Communication
As mobile devices become more powerful, interprocess communication becomes increasingly more important. Unfortunately, this larger freedom of mobility gives rise to unknown environments. In these environments, processes that want to communicate with each other will be unable to do so because of protocol conflicts. Although conflicting protocols can be remedied by using adaptors, the number of p...
متن کاملProbabilistic Patient Monitoring with Multivariate, Multimodal Extreme Value Theory
Conventional patient monitoring is performed by generating alarms when vital signs exceed pre-determined thresholds, but the false-alarm rate of such monitors in hospitals is so high that alarms are typically ignored. We propose a principled, probabilistic method for combining vital signs into a multivariate model of patient state, using extreme value theory (EVT) to generate robust alarms if a...
