bootstrap, in the case of inequality indices. To estimate the parameters of the assumed parametric data generating distribution … inequality index. Its primary advantage is that the scale parameter does not need to be estimated to perform parametric bootstrap … suggest that this feature provides an advantage over the parametric bootstrap using the maximum likelihood estimator. We also …

There are many studies published in the literature on stylized facts in financial time series. However, for the Colombian case there is only one work that documents the stylized facts of the returns. Alonso and Arcos (2006) documented the presence of four stylized facts in the exchange rate...

Linear GARCH(1,1) and threshold GARCH(1,1) processes are established as regularly varying, meaning their heavy tails are Pareto like, under conditions that allow the innovations from the, respective, processes to be skewed. Skewness is considered a stylized fact for many financial returns...

Commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), as a portfolio-based financial product, have gained great popularity in financial markets. This paper extends Childs, Ott and Riddiough’s (J Financ Quant Anal, 31(4), 581–603, <CitationRef CitationID="CR8">1996</CitationRef>) model by proposing a copula-based methodology for pricing CMBS...</citationref>

In this work we introduce a generalization of the slash distribution using beta-normal distribution. This newly defined generalization is more flexible than the ordinary slash distribution and contains distributions that can be not only symmetric and unimodal, but also asymmetric and bimodal. We...

An important characteristic of any TCP connection is the sequencing of packets within that connection. Out-of sequence packets indicate that the connection suffers from loss, duplication or reordering. More generally, in many distributed applications information integrity requires that data...

For testing whether a distribution function is heavy tailed, we study the Kolmogorov test, Berk-Jones test, score test and their integrated versions. A comparison is conducted via Bahadur efficiency and simulations. The score test and the integrated score test show the best performance. Although...

Defence in depth is a time-tested strategy in some technical fields, such as cybersecurity or nuclear reactor technology. In view of potentially devasting consequences of exponential growth, the implementation of such a strategy is almost self-evident in this case. Less obvious is a formal...
