A novel approach to inference for a specific region of the predictive distribution is introduced. An important domain of application is accurate prediction of financial risk measures, where the area of interest is the left tail of the predictive density of logreturns. Our proposed approach...

In several scientific fields, such as finance, economics and bioinformatics, important theoretical and practical issues exist involving multimodal and asymmetric count data distributions due to heterogeneity of the underlying population. For accurate approximation of such distributions we...
