Bias-reduced estimates for skewness, kurtosis, L-skewness and L-kurtosis

open access: yes, 2011
Estimates based on L-moments are less non-robust than estimates based on ordinary moments because the former are linear combinations of order statistics for all orders, whereas the later take increasing powers of deviations from the mean as the order ...

Hidden Markov graphical models with state‐dependent generalized hyperbolic distributions

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, we develop a novel hidden Markov graphical model to investigate time‐varying interconnectedness between different financial markets. To identify conditional correlation structures under varying market conditions and accommodate shape features embedded in financial time series, we rely upon the generalized hyperbolic family of ...

Blind adaptive asynchronous CDMA multiuser detector using prediction least mean kurtosis algorithm

open access: yes, 2000
In this paper, a new blind adaptive multiuser detector, which is termed prediction least mean kurtosis (PLMK) algorithm, is proposed for joint MAI and narrowband interference (NBI) suppression in asynchronous CDMA systems.
