Book Numerical Methods in Finance

Download or read book Numerical Methods in Finance written by Michèle Breton and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-05-06 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GERAD celebrates this year its 25th anniversary. The Center was created in 1980 by a small group of professors and researchers of HEC Montreal, McGill University and of the Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal. GERAD's activities achieved sufficient scope to justify its conversion in June 1988 into a Joint Research Centre of HEC Montreal, the Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal and McGill University. In 1996, the U- versite du Quebec a Montreal joined these three institutions. GERAD has fifty members (professors), more than twenty research associates and post doctoral students and more than two hundreds master and Ph.D. students. GERAD is a multi-university center and a vital forum for the devel- ment of operations research. Its mission is defined around the following four complementarily objectives: • The original and expert contribution to all research fields in GERAD's area of expertise; • The dissemination of research results in the best scientific outlets as well as in the society in general; • The training of graduate students and post doctoral researchers; • The contribution to the economic community by solving important problems and providing transferable tools.

Book New Developments in Classification and Data Analysis

Download or read book New Developments in Classification and Data Analysis written by Maurizio Vichi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-05-06 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains revised versions of selected papers presented during the biannual meeting of the Classification and Data Analysis Group of SocietA Italiana di Statistica, which was held in Bologna, September 22-24, 2003. The scientific program of the conference included 80 contributed papers. Moreover it was possible to recruit six internationally renowned invited spe- ers for plenary talks on their current research works regarding the core topics of IFCS (the International Federation of Classification Societies) and Wo- gang Gaul and the colleagues of the GfKl organized a session. Thus, the conference provided a large number of scientists and experts from home and abroad with an attractive forum for discussions and mutual exchange of knowledge. The talks in the different sessions focused on methodological developments in supervised and unsupervised classification and in data analysis, also p- viding relevant contributions in the context of applications. This suggested the presentation of the 43 selected papers in three parts as follows: CLASSIFICATION AND CLUSTERING Non parametric classification Clustering and dissimilarities MULTIVARIATE STATISTICS AND DATA ANALYSIS APPLIED MULTIVARIATE STATISTICS Environmental data Microarray data Behavioural and text data Financial data We wish to express our gratitude to the authors whose enthusiastic p- ticipation made the meeting possible. We are very grateful to the reviewers for the time spent in their professional reviewing work. We would also like to extend our thanks to the chairpersons and discussants of the sessions: their comments and suggestions proved very stimulating both for the authors and the audience.

Book Management of Foreign Exchange Risk

Download or read book Management of Foreign Exchange Risk written by Y. C. Lum and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-09-02 with total page 1149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a technical and specialised discussion of contemporary and emerging issues in foreign exchange and financial markets by addressing the issues of risk management and theory and hypothesis development, which have general implications for finance theory and foreign exchange market management. It offers an in-depth, comprehensive analysis of the issues concerning the volatility of exchange rates. The book has three main objectives. First, it applies the integrated study of exchange rate volatility in terms of depth and breadth. Second, it applies the integrated study of exchange rate volatility in Malaysia, as a case study of a developing country. Malaysia had imposed capital control measures in the past and has now liberalised its exchange rate market and will continue to liberalise it further in the long run. Hence, the need to understand exchange rate volatility measurement and management will be even more important in the future. Third, the book highlights new conditional volatility models for a developing country, such as Malaysia, and develops advanced econometric models which have produced results for sound risk management strategies and for achieving risk management in the financial market and the economy. Additionally, the authors recommend risk management themes which may be of relevance to other developing countries. This work can be used as a reference book by fund managers, financial market analysts, researchers, academics, practitioners, policy makers and postgraduate students in the areas of finance, accounting, business and financial economics. It can also be a supplementary text for Ph.D. and Masters’ students in these areas.

Book An Omnibus Test for Univariate and Multivariate Normality

Download or read book An Omnibus Test for Univariate and Multivariate Normality written by Jurgen Doornik and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We suggest a convenient version of the omnibus test for normality, using skewness and kurtosis based on Shenton and Bowman [Journal of the American Statistical Association (1977) Vol. 72, pp. 206211], which controls well for size, for samples as low as 10 observations. A multivariate version is introduced. Size and power are investigated in comparison with four other tests for multivariate normality. The first power experiments consider the whole skewness-kurtosis plane; the second use a bivariate distribution which has normal marginals. It is concluded that the proposed test has the best size and power properties of the tests considered.

Book A Goodness of Fit Test for Multivariate Normality

Download or read book A Goodness of Fit Test for Multivariate Normality written by G. L. Hensler and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A goodness of fit test for multivariate normality is developed. The test procedure reduces the composite null hypothesis to a simple null hypothesis that requires one to test uniformity of a set of observations between 0 and 1.

Book An Overall Test for Multivariate Normality

Download or read book An Overall Test for Multivariate Normality written by and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are a number of methods in the statistical literature for testing whether observed data came from a multivariate normal(MVN) distribution with an unknown mean vector and covariance matrix. Let X1 ... be an iid sample of size n from a p-variate normal distribution. Denote the sample mean and sample variance-covariance matrix by X and S respectively. Most of the tests of multivariate normality are based on the results that Yi-S-1/2(Xi - X), i=1,.., n, are asymptotically iid as p-variate normal than zero mean vector and identity covariance matrix. Tests developed by Andrews et al., Mardina and others are direct functions of Yi. We note that the N=np components of the Yi's put together can be considered as an asymptotically iid sample of size N from a univariate normal any well known test based on N independent observations for univariate normality. In Particular we can use univariate skewness and kurtosis tests, which are sensitive to deviations from normality.

Book The Chi square Test of Goodness of Fit for a Multivariate Normal Distribution

Download or read book The Chi square Test of Goodness of Fit for a Multivariate Normal Distribution written by Carl B. Bates and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pearson Chi-Square Goodness of Fit Criterion for testing the null hypothesis 'The random sample is from a univariate normal parent population' is generalized for multivariate normal distributions to test the null hypothesis 'The random sample of N-dimensional observation vectors is from an N-dimensional multivariate normal parent population.' The basis of the formulation is the distribution of the quadratic form in the exponent of the hypothesized distribution. Application of the procedure is illustrated with a numerical example of experimental data from a weapon effectiveness study. (Author).
