11. Statistical Inference for Traffic Safety Analysis Using the Generalized Pareto Distribution
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistikSammanfattning : This thesis investigates the possibility of computing interval estimates for metrics that pertain to traffic safety based on surrogate measures of safety. A probabilistic model of the (near) crash count is defined using the generalized Pareto distribution and three different methods for calculating confidence intervals for the corresponding intensity parameter are proposed.

12. Simulation-Based Portfolio Optimization with Coherent Distortion Risk Measures
Master-uppsats, KTH/Matematisk statistikSammanfattning : This master's thesis studies portfolio optimization using linear programming algorithms. The contribution of this thesis is an extension of the convex framework for portfolio optimization with Conditional Value-at-Risk, introduced by Rockafeller and Uryasev. LÄS MER
13. Value at Risk and Expected Shortfall risk measures using Extreme Value Theory
Magister-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för nationalekonomi med statistikSammanfattning : Calculating risk measures as Value at Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES) has become popular for institutions and agents in financial markets. A main drawback with these risk measures is that they traditionally assume a specific distribution, as the Normal distribution or the Student’s t distribution. LÄS MER
14. An Extreme Value Approach to Road Safety Analysis
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistikSammanfattning : In this thesis we study the feasibility of applying extreme value theory to data regarding road safety. In particular, we propose a model for assessing the risk of collision and near collision using extreme value theory. LÄS MER
15. An Extreme Value Approach To Pricing Credit Risk
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistikSammanfattning : An Extreme Value Approach To Pricing Credit Risk will outline the possibility to investigate a company’s price of risk over different time periods given a pre-defined risk level. With help of credit default swap (CDS) prices and extreme value theory the credit risk can be estimated for different return levels. LÄS MER
