Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

Bayesian Model Averaging in Causal Instrumental Variable Models
Journal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Instrumental variables are a popular tool to infer causal effects under unobserved confounding, but choosing suitable instruments is challenging in practice. We propose gIVBMA, a Bayesian model averaging procedure that addresses this challenge by averaging across different sets of instrumental variables and covariates in a structural equation ...

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We propose a practical procedure to quantify the time varying influence of parameters on hazard functions for power series compounded lifetime models. The procedure combines likelihood based fitting with a two stage sensitivity analysis and applies to a range of baselines and compounding laws.

A Lognormal Model for Insurance Claims Data
Revstat Statistical Journal, 2006 In the insurance area, especially based on observations of the number of claims, N(w), corresponding to an exposure w, and on observations of the total amount of claims incurred, Y (w), the risk theory arises to quantify risks and to fit models of ...
