چکیده

The cdf and pdf of the maximally skewed (/~ = 1) stable distributions are tabulated to high precision, by means of Zolotarev's integral representation, for ct = 0.50 (0.02) 2.00, at fractiles corresponding to p = 0.0001, 0.001, 0.005, 0.01 (0.01) 0.99, 0.995, 0.999, 0.9999. This tabulation is intended to be suitable for developing and calibrating a numerical approximation to these distributions. The probability at the tabulated fractiles is estimated to be accurate to within 4.1 × 10~o. The densities have an absolute precision of 2.0 x 10-13 and a relative precision of 1.6 x 10-12. Zolotarev's correction of the discontinuity at ct = 1 is graphically illustrated. The full tabulation, documented here, is available by anonymous FTP.

M-estimators as GMM for Stable Laws Discretizations

This paper is devoted to "Some Discrete Distributions Generated by Standard Stable Densities" (in short, Discrete Stable Densities). The large-sample properties of M-estimators as obtained by the "Generalized Method of Moments" (GMM) are discussed for such distributions. Some corollaries are proposed. Moreover, using the respective results we demonstrate the large-sample pro...

The Risk-Neutral Measure and Option Pricing under Log-Stable Uncertainty

The fact that expected payo¤s on assets and call options are in...nite under most log-stable distributions led both Paul Samuelson (as quoted by Smith 1976) and Robert Merton (1976) to conjecture that assets and derivatives could not be reasonably priced under these distributions, despite their attractive feature as limiting distributions under the Generalized Central Limit Theorem. Carr and Wu...

A Novel Image Structural Similarity Index Considering Image Content Detectability Using Maximally Stable Extremal Region Descriptor

The image content detectability and image structure preservation are closely related concepts with undeniable role in image quality assessment. However, the most attention of image quality studies has been paid to image structure evaluation, few of them focused on image content detectability. Examining the image structure was firstly introduced and assessed in Structural SIMilarity (SSIM) measu...

Economic design of x¯ control charts considering process shift distributions

Process shift is an important input parameter in the economic design of control charts. Earlier x control chart designs considered constant shifts to occur in the mean of the process for a given assignable cause. This assumption has been criticized by many researchers since it may not be realistic to produce a constant shift whenever an assignable cause occurs. To overcome this difficulty...
