Ciclo Seminari Probabilita` e Statistica - PASCAL - 9 marzo

05 Mar '15

Ciclo di Seminari - Progetto ERC grant PASCAL (Probabilistic and Statistical Techniques for Cosmological Applications) Lunedi` 9 Marzo - ore 14.00 Aula D'Antoni 1101 Dipartimento di Matematica Università di Roma Tor Vergata Speaker: Elena Villa - Università degli Studi di Milano, Dipartimento di Matematica Title: MINKOWSKI CONTENT AND MEAN DENSITY OF RANDOM CLOSED SETS: some theoretical results and statistical applications Abstract: In this talk we deal with random closed sets in R^d with integer Hausdorff dimension n<d; a problem of interest in many real applications is the study of the so-called mean density of the involved set. Namely, given a random closed set Theta with Hausdorff dimension n, it may well happen that its "induced mean measure" mu(B):=E[H^n(\Theta\cap B] (where H^n denotes the n-dimensional Hausdorff measure) is absolutely continuous with respect to the d-dimensional Lebesgue measure; in such a case, the corresponding density is named the "mean density of Theta". We will give here an overview of some recent results both on its theoretical value and on its estimation in the non-stationary setting; to this aim a stochastic version of the Minkowski content notion will play a fundamental role. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. ................................................................................

Seminario Cretarola
by Sabrina Mulinacci 05 Mar '15

05 Mar '15

Cari colleghi, Giovedì 12 marzo 2015 ore 12 in aula IV Via Belle Arti 41, Bologna Alessandra Cretarola dell'Università di Perugia terrà un seminario dal titolo: “Risk-minimizing hedging strategies for unit-linked life insurance contracts under partial information” Abstract: We study the problem of hedging unit-linked life insurance contracts in incomplete markets when there are restrictions on the available information by using the local risk-minimization approach. This type of insurance contract is closely related to the financial market since benefits depend on the development of a certain stock price. Then, it makes sense to consider the combined model given by the underlying semimartingale model of financial market and the insurance portfolio. Firstly, we refer to the case of complete information on the insurance portfolio and a limitative knowledge on the financial market. More precisely, we assume that, at any time, the insurance company has access to the information about the number of policy-holders who are still alive but it has a partial information about the stock prices. We characterize the risk-minimizing hedging strategy for pure endowment contracts when the underlying price process is expressed in units of the numéraire portfolio and the mortality hazard rate is a deterministic function, and then we compute it explicitly in a Markovian jump-diffusion driven market model. Next, we consider the case where there are restrictions on the information concerning the insurance portfolio. In particular we assume that, at any time, the insurance company has a complete knowledge of the financial market and may observe the number of deaths from a specific portfolio of insured individuals but not the mortality hazard rate, which may depend on unobservable exogenous stochastic factors. We characterize the locally risk-minimizing hedging strategy for pure endowment and term insurance contracts in terms of the projection of the survival process on the information flow. Finally, we see that in a Markovian framework, this leads to a filtering problem with point process observations. The talk is based on joint works with Claudia Ceci and Katia Colaneri. Un caro saluto a tutti Sabrina Mulinacci

Politecnico di Milano - Seminario J. J. Egozcue and V. Pawlowsky-Glahn
by Laura M. Sangalli 04 Mar '15

04 Mar '15

Si avvisa che in data 31-03-2015, alle ore 11:00 precise, presso l'Aula Seminari "F. Saleri" VI piano - Dipartimento di Matematica, Politecnico di Milano, nell'ambito delle iniziative MOX, si svolgerà il seguente seminario: Relatori: J. J. Egozcue, Dept. Matematica Aplicada III, U. Politecnica de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain e V. Pawlowsky-Glahn, Dept. Informatica, Matematica Aplicada i Estadistica, U. de Girona, Spain Titolo: Understanding Bayes spaces Abstract: Bayes spaces contain equivalence classes of sigma-additive measures. Two measures are equivalent when they are proportional. These measures are represented by densities and vector space operations are defined. Probability measures and density functions are included in these spaces. When the densities are log-square-integrable, they are in a Hilbert space called B^2. Bayes spaces and associated Hilbert spaces B^2 have been developed in a theoretical way, but there is still a long way to understand the implications of the theory, as well as to develop potential applications. The talk is aimed at reviewing the theory and giving some examples of distributions for which the B^2 distance can be easily obtained. These examples show the variety of distribution supports that can be dealt with the theory. An application to grain size distribution is presented. The goal is to decide whether different populations have different mean distribution. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.

avviso di seminario

04 Mar '15

Mi scuso per eventuali ricezioni multiple Avviso di seminario Relatore: Radu Craiu Department of Statistical Sciences University of Toronto Titolo: Bayesian Inference for Conditional Copula models with Continuous and Binary Responses Dove e Quando: mercoledì 11 marzo ore 11.30 Aula Fanfani (quinto piano, edificio Economia) Viale del Castro Laurenziano 9, Roma Abstract: The conditional copula device allows the use of copula models in the study of dependence between response variables in regression settings. We consider situations in which the dependence structure varies with covariates and we introduce a Bayesian model that allows for joint estimation of the marginal and joint models. The dependence between the copula parameter and the covariates is modeled via polynomial splines. Extensions to multiple covariates are implemented via additive models. We discuss the computation algorithm required for inference and demonstrate the performance of model selection techniques on simulated and real data.
