**************************************************************** STATISTICS SEMINARS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO **************************************************************** Venerdi' 4 Luglio 2014 alle ore 12:00, presso la sala rossa del Collegio Carlo Alberto, Moncalieri (TO), si terra' il seguente seminario: Michael J. DANIELS (University of Texas at Austin) A FLEXIBLE BAYESIAN APPROACH TO MONOTONE MISSING DATA IN LONGITUDINAL STUDIES WITH INFORMATIVE MISSINGNESS WITH APPLICATION TO AN ACUTE SCHIZOPHRENIA CLINICAL TRIAL Abstract: We develop a Bayesian nonparametric model for a longitudinal response in the presence of nonignorable missing data. Our general approach is to first specify a {\em working model} that flexibly models the missingness and full outcome processes jointly. We specify a Dirichlet process mixture of missing at random (MAR) models as a prior on the joint distribution of the working model. This aspect of the model governs the fit of the observed data by modeling the observed data distribution as the marginalization over the missing data in the working model. We then separately specify the conditional distribution of the missing data given the observed data and dropout. This approach allows us to identify the distribution of the missing data using identifying restrictions as a starting point. We propose a framework for introducing sensitivity parameters, allowing us to vary the untestable assumptions about the missing data mechanism smoothly. Informative priors on the space of missing data assumptions can be specified to combine inferences under many different assumptions into a final inference and accurately characterize uncertainty. These methods are motivated by, and applied to, data from a clinical trial assessing the efficacy of a new treatment for acute Schizophrenia. Joint work with Antonio Linero at the University of Florida Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. Il seminario e' organizzato dalla "de Castro" Statistics Initiative (http://www.carloalberto.org/stats) in collaborazione con il Collegio Carlo Alberto.

Seminario: Luciano Campi - presso Dipartimento di Informatica, Università di Verona

Annuncio di Seminario Luciano Campi, London School of Economics, London Giovedi' 3 Luglio, presso il Dipartimento di Informatica, Università di Verona Strada le Grazie, 15 - Sala Verde ore 15:00 (14:45 rinfresco, 15:00 inizio seminario) Title: Utility indifference valuation for non-smooth payoffs with an application to power derivatives Abstract: We consider the problem of exponential utility indifference valuation under the simplified framework where traded and nontraded assets are uncorrelated but where the claim to be priced possibly depends on both. Traded asset prices follow a multivariate Black and Scholes model, while nontraded asset prices evolve as generalized Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes. We provide a BSDE characterization of the utility indifference price (UIP) for a large class of non-smooth, possibly unbounded, payoffs depending simultaneously on both classes of assets. Focusing then on European claims and using the Gaussian structure of the model allows us to employ some BSDE techniques (in particular, a Malliavin-type representation theorem due to Ma (2002)) to prove the regularity of Z and to characterize the UIP for possibly discontinuous European payoffs as a viscosity solution of a suitable PDE with continuous space derivatives. The optimal hedging strategy is also identified essentially as the delta hedging strategy corresponding to the UIP. Since there are no closed-form formulas in general, we also obtain asymptotic expansions for prices and hedging strategies when the risk aversion parameter is small. Finally, our results are applied to pricing and hedging power derivatives in various structural models for energy markets.

Seminario N. Leonenko a Padova- Mercoledì 2 luglio
by Marco Ferrante 21 Jun '14

21 Jun '14

Annuncio di seminario: Mercoledì 2 Luglio alle ore 12.00 in Aula 2BC30 del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Padova il Prof. Nikolai Leonenko dell'Università di Cardiff terrà il seminario Titolo: Fractional Pearson diffusions. Abstract: Pearson diffusions have stationary distributions of Pearson type. They includes Ornstein-Uhlenbeck, Cox-Ingersoll-Ross, and several others wellkown processes. Their stationary distributions solve the Pearson equation, developed by Pearson in 1914 to unify some important classes of distributions (e.g., normal, gamma, beta). Their eigenfunction expansions involve the traditional classes of orthogonal polynomials (e.g., Hermite, Laguerre, Jacobi). We develop fractional Pearson di¢ sions ([1],[2]), constructing by a non-Markovian inverse stable time change. Their transition densities are shown to solve a time-fractional analogue to the diffusion equation with polynomial coefficients. Because this process is not Markovian, the stochastic solution provides additional information about the movement of particles that di§use under this model. This is joint work with M.M. Meerschaert and A. Sikorskii (Michigan State Univeraity, USA). Anomalous diffusions have proven useful in applications to physics, geophysics, chemistry, and finance.
