  2. 22. Identification of Stochastic Nonlinear Dynamical Models Using Estimating Functions

    Author : Mohamed Abdalmoaty; Håkan Hjalmarsson; Adrian Wills; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Prediction Error Method; Maximum Likelihood; Data-driven; Learning; Stochastic; Nonlinear; Dynamical Models; Non-stationary Linear Predictors; Intractable Likelihood; Latent Variable Models; Estimation; Process Disturbance; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Data-driven modeling of stochastic nonlinear systems is recognized as a very challenging problem, even when reduced to a parameter estimation problem. A main difficulty is the intractability of the likelihood function, which renders favored estimation methods, such as the maximum likelihood method, analytically intractable. READ MORE

  3. 23. Evaluation of regression methods for log-normal data - linear models for environmental exposure and biomarker outcomes

    Author : Sara Gustavsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; log-normal distribution; linear models; absolute effects;

    Abstract : The identification and quantification of associations between variables is often of interest in occupational and environmental research, and regression analysis is commonly used to assess these associations. While exposures and biological data often have a positive skewness and can be approximated with the log-normal distribution, much of the inference in regression analysis is based on the normal distribution.

  4. 24. Vintage models of spatial structural change

    Author : Lars Westin; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; adiabatic approximation; dynamics; input-output; interregional computable general equilibrium; slaving principle; spatial models; spatial linear expenditure system; spatial price equilibrium; transportation networks; vintage function;

    Abstract : In the study a class of multisector network models, suitable for simulation of the interaction between production, demand, trade, and infrastructure, is presented. A characteristic feature of the class is a vintage model of the production system. READ MORE

  5. 25. Stochastic claims reserving in non-life insurance : Bootstrap and smoothing models

    Author : Susanna Björkwall; Ola Hössjer; Esbjörn Ohlsson; Peter England; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bootstrap; Chain-ladder; Generalized linear model; Separation method; Smoothing; Stochastic claims reserving; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics; matematisk statistik;

    Abstract : In practice there is a long tradition of actuaries calculating reserve estimates according to deterministic methods without explicit reference to a stochastic model. For instance, the chain-ladder was originally a deterministic reserving method. READ MORE
