Financial modeling with heavy‐tailed stable distributions

WIREs Computational Statistics, 2013
The aim of this article was to give an accessible introduction to stable distributions for financial modeling. There is a real need to use better models for financial returns because the normal (or bell curve/Gaussian) model does not capture the large fluctuations seen in real assets.

Analyzing Real Data by a New Heavy-Tailed Statistical Model

Modern Journal of Statistics
This study presents the power Mira distribution, an innovative three-parameter probability model that improves baseline distributions by including an extra shaping parameter. The suggested distribution has exceptional adaptability in representing various

When Do Heavy-Tail Distributions Help?

2006
We examine the evidence for the widespread belief that heavy tail distributions enhance the search for minima on multimodal objective functions. We analyze isotropic and anisotropic heavy-tail Cauchy distributions and investigate the probability to sample a better solution, depending on the step length and the dimensionality of the search space.

Heavy-Tailed Distributions and Their Properties

2013
We define the heavy-tailed distribution as distribution with infinite mathematical expectation. For such distributions the standard statistical tools—sample mean and sample standard deviation—exhibit a high instability. Some examples illustrating this conclusion are presented.

Heavy-Tailed Diffusion Models

arXiv.org
Diffusion models achieve state-of-the-art generation quality across many applications, but their ability to capture rare or extreme events in heavy-tailed distributions remains unclear.

Heavy-Tailed and Long-Tailed Distributions

2011
In this chapter we are interested in (right-) tail properties of distributions, i.e. in properties of a distribution which, for any x, depend only on the restriction of the distribution to (x, ∞). More generally it is helpful to consider tail properties of functions.

Transformation of distributions into heavy tailed

SPIE Proceedings, 2016
We consider the transformation of the Raleigh distribution into a new distribution so that the new distribution behaves approximately the same as the Rayleigh for small values of the argument but becomes heavy tailed for large values.

Portfolio selection with heavy tailed distributions

2005
This paper analyzes portfolio selection models with heavy tailed return distributions. Firstly, we examine investor’s optimal choices when we assume respectively either Gaussian or stable non-Gaussian unconditional distributed index returns. Then, we approximate discrete time optimal allocations assuming returns following an ARMA process.
