Sharp convex bounds on the aggregate sums--An alternative proof [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
It is well known that a random vector with given marginal distributions is comonotonic if and only if it has the largest sum with respect to the convex order [ Kaas, Dhaene, Vyncke, Goovaerts, Denuit (2002), A simple geometric proof that comonotonic ...

Climate Stress Testing on European SME Securitised Loans Under Climate Mitigation Scenarios

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Assessing the future impact of climate risks on the probability of default (PD) of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) is challenging due to limited disclosure, policy uncertainty and exposure to physical risks. This paper addresses this gap by integrating macroeconomic variables from the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS ...

Lee Carter mortality forecasting: application to the Italian population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper we investigate the feasibility of using the Lee-Carter methodology to construct mortality forecasts for the Italian population. We fit the model to the matrix of Italian death rates for each gender from 1950 to 2000. A time-varying index of

Restricted Tweedie stochastic block models

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The stochastic block model (SBM) is a widely used framework for community detection in networks, where the network structure is typically represented by an adjacency matrix. However, conventional SBMs are not directly applicable to an adjacency matrix that consists of nonnegative zero‐inflated continuous edge weights.

Bayesian inverse ensemble forecasting for COVID‐19

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Variations in strains of COVID‐19 have a significant impact on the rate of surges and on the accuracy of forecasts of the epidemic dynamics. The primary goal for this article is to quantify the effects of varying strains of COVID‐19 on ensemble forecasts of individual “surges.” By modelling the disease dynamics with an SIR model, we solve the ...

Lee-Carter goes risk-neutral: an application to the Italian annuity market [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005

Content Validation of a Medication Adherence Risk Score (MARS) for Mortality Risk Prediction: A Delphi Consensus

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The Medication Adherence Risk Score (MARS) is an objective adherence‐based score, derived from transactional dispensary data. This study provides expert consensus to validate the use of the MARS as a predictor of mortality risk. A systematic review and assessment of South African health legislation and professional guidelines informed the development ...
