Download or read book Quantile Estimation in Dependent Sequences written by P. Heidelberger and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Standard nonparametric estimators of quantiles based on order statistics can be used not only when the data are i.i.d., but also when the data are from a stationary, phi-mixing process of continuous random variables. However, when the random variables are highly positively correlated, sample sizes needed for acceptable precision in estimates of extreme quantiles are computationally unmanageable. A practical scheme is given, based on a maximum transformation in a two-way layout of the data, which reduces the sample size sufficiently to allow an experimenter to obtain a point estimate of an extreme quantile. Three schemes are then given which lead to confidence interval estimates for the quantile. One uses a spectral analysis of the reduced sample. The other two, averaged group quantiles and nested group quantiles, are extensions of the method of batched means to quantile estimation. None of the schemes requires that the process being simulated is regenerative. (Author).

Download or read book Tail and Quantile Estimation for Strongly Mixing Stationary Sequences written by Holger Rootzén and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper primarily concerns the estimation of tail parameters for the marginal distribution F of the terms of a strongly mixing stationary sequence when 1-F(t) decreases exponentially, or is regularly varying as t infinity. The asymptotic properties of the Hill estimator for the exponential parameter or regular variation index are developed within this framework. Estimation procedures are investigated for tail probabilities and tail quantiles, both for the individual terms of the process and for their maxima over groups of consecutive terms. The latter case requires estimation of the so called extremal index, and substantially involves the local dependence structure of the sequence. (kr).

Download or read book Statistics of Extremes written by Jan Beirlant and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2004-10-15 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research in the statistical analysis of extreme values has flourished over the past decade: new probability models, inference and data analysis techniques have been introduced; and new application areas have been explored. Statistics of Extremes comprehensively covers a wide range of models and application areas, including risk and insurance: a major area of interest and relevance to extreme value theory. Case studies are introduced providing a good balance of theory and application of each model discussed, incorporating many illustrated examples and plots of data. The last part of the book covers some interesting advanced topics, including time series, regression, multivariate and Bayesian modelling of extremes, the use of which has huge potential.

Download or read book Simulation written by Stewart Robinson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-09-22 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new edition of this successful textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to simulation, foregrounding the topic as an applied problem-solving tool. Guiding readers through the key stages in a simulation project in terms of both the technical requirements and the project management issues surrounding it, the book will enable students to develop appropriate valid conceptual models, perform simulation experiments, analyse the results and draw insightful conclusions. The author's engaging style and authoritative knowledge of the subject make the book as accessible as it is essential, drawing on case studies and complementary online content to encourage a critical engagement with the topic. This is an ideal textbook for those studying on upper level undergraduate and postgraduate degree courses in business and management and MBA programmes, and is a core text for those specialising in operations management. In addition, it is an important text for students taking Simulation modules on engineering, computer science or mathematics degree programmes. New to this Edition: - A practical step-by-step guide to preparing a simple model - Improved cross referencing, navigation and design - Updated referencing and the inclusion of select new case studies - New material available via the companion website - Key concepts, on-page glossary terms and relevant further reading lists for each chapter
Download or read book Quantile Regression written by Roger Koenker and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-05-05 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantile regression is gradually emerging as a unified statistical methodology for estimating models of conditional quantile functions. By complementing the exclusive focus of classical least squares regression on the conditional mean, quantile regression offers a systematic strategy for examining how covariates influence the location, scale and shape of the entire response distribution. This monograph is the first comprehensive treatment of the subject, encompassing models that are linear and nonlinear, parametric and nonparametric. The author has devoted more than 25 years of research to this topic. The methods in the analysis are illustrated with a variety of applications from economics, biology, ecology and finance. The treatment will find its core audiences in econometrics, statistics, and applied mathematics in addition to the disciplines cited above.
