Hay esbozos según los cuales las probabilidades se cuentan como la fundación de la teoría matemática de las estadísticas. Mas la significación física de las probabilidades matemáticas son oscuros, muy poco entendidos. Parecíera mejor que las probabilidades físicas se fundaran en las...

The successful active portfolio manager has to have at least two main competencies: Felicitous asset allocation choice and the competence to do so at the right point in time. Based on an extension of Grinold and Kahn’s Fundamental Law of Active Management, this paper describes a method to...

Most point-in-time PD term structure models used in industry for stress testing and IFRS9 expected loss estimation apply only to macroeconomic scenarios. Loan level credit quality is not a factor in these models. In practice, credit profile at assessment time plays an important role in the...

This work is the third, but not the last, in the cycle begun by the works [23, 22] about the new theory of experience and chance as the theory of co~events. Here I introduce the concepts of two co~event means, which serve as dual co~event characteristics of some co~event. The very idea of dual...

Abstract Given a risk outcome y over a rating system {R_i }_(i=1)^k for a portfolio, we show in this paper that the maximum likelihood estimates with monotonic constraints, when y is binary (the Bernoulli likelihood) or takes values in the interval 0≤y≤1 (the quasi-Bernoulli likelihood), are...

The paper presents a study of the relationship between the tax morale and the individual payments of personal income tax using the statistical matching of opinion polls with a representative sample of the personal income tax returns in Spain. As an initial step, the method selected to execute...

A certain spectrum, indexed by a\in[0,\infty], of upper bounds P_a(X;x) on the tail probability P(X\geq x), with P_0(X;x)=P(X\geq x) and P_\infty(X;x) being the best possible exponential upper bound on P(X\geq x), is shown to be stable and monotonic in a, x, and X, where x is a real number and X...

This paper aims at presenting a new voting function which is obtained in Balinski-Laraki's framework and benefits mean and median advantages. The so-called Mean-Median Comprise Method (MMCM) has fulfilled criteria such as unanimity, neutrality, anonymity, monotonicity, and Arrow's independence...

A problem often faced by economic researchers is the interpolation or distribution of economic time series observed at low frequency into compatible higher frequency data. A method based on wavelet analysis is presented to temporal disaggregate time series. A standard `plausible' method is...
