More often than not, we misestimate risk, and do so unwittingly. I will illustrate such issues and share thoughts that have guided my current research. http://www.stats.uwo.ca/faculty/zitikis/main.htm <http://www.stats.uwo.ca/faculty/zitikis/main.htm> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
