Abstract:
The thesis concerns semiparametric modelling and forecasting Value-at-Risk models, and the applications of these in financial data. Two general classes of semiparametric VaR models are proposed, the first method is introduced by defining some efficient estimators of the risk measures in a semiparametric GARCH model through moment constraints and a quantile estimator based on inverting an empirical likelihood weighted distribution. It is found that the new quantile estimator is uniformly more efficient than the simple empirical quantile and a quantile estimator based on normalized residuals. At

Abstract:
Outlier detection is useful in a vast numbers of different domains, wherever there is data and a need for analysis. The research area related to outlier detection is large and the number of available approaches is constantly growing. Most of the approaches produce a binary result: either outlier or not. In this work approaches that are able to detect outliers by producing a p-value estimate are investigated. Approaches that estimate p-values are interesting since it allows their results to easily be compared against each other, followed over time, or be used with a variable threshold. Four app

Abstract:
The current situation of insufficient investment in transmission tends to weaken the advantages of a deregulated power industry. These shortages mainly arise because of the risk of not recovering the cost of investing in new lines Location Marginal prices (LMPs) and Financial Transmission Rights (FTRs) are key elements in reducing these investment risks. Market participants are able to hedge against price fluctuations caused by transmission congestion through the purchase or sale of FTRs. The value of FTRs, which is tied to the difference in prices between locations in the network, would indic

Abstract:
This research presents an application of extreme value theory to estimate the value at risk of a market position particularly of the OMX Hex Index. There are many approaches to computing value at risk alongside the extreme value method. One fundamental problem the manager of risk face is “what is the optimal choice of value at risk estimator that will best predict the risk?” This implies that choosing an approach to best predict value at risk is challenging. This study proposed a method of estimating value at risk using the two-dimensional inhomogeneous Poisson model. An extreme value theory m

Objectives The objective of this thesis is to develop and test a new method, based on Time Trade-Off (ITO), for the estimation of the monetary value of a QALY (MVQ) informed by public preferences. Methods Two new questions are developed to estimate an MVQ which ask respondents to trade off length of life to either increase their income, or avoid a decrease in their income. These questions are initially tested through a Dutch online survey with 321 members of the Dutch general public. The questions are further tested through a small scale pilot study, followed by a UK based interview study with

The purpose of this thesis was to develop a method of assessing the marginal value of limited elk hunting licenses in Colorado.

Human capital is increasingly believed to play an indispensable role in the growth process; however, adequately measuring its stock remains controversial. Because the estimated impact that human capital has on economic growth is sensitive to the measure of human capital, accurate and consistent measures are desirable. While many measures have been developed, most rely on some proxy of educational experience and are thus plagued with limitations. In this study, I adopt a lifetime earnings approach to estimate the monetary value of the human capital stock for New Zealand. I find that the

We use different number of days and significant level to test our model and observe their performance. To value our model, we use back test, calculate failure frequency, failure ratio, and use Christoffersen’s Likelihood Ratio Test to test unconditional and conditional test statistic.

Abstract:
博士<br>國立雲林科技大學<br>管理研究所博士班<br>95<br>A database system generally cannot operate properly if it contains null values of attributes in the system. The study proposes efficient and systematical approaches to estimating null values in a relational database, which progressively improve the performance of the null value. The proposed approaches have three advantages: (1) attribute selection; (2) consideration of database pattern and (3) situation based units of attribute measurement (normalized). The approaches include two phases: (1) data-preprocessing, (2) model construction. Firstly, the data-prep
