Experimental Design in Evaluating VaR Forecasts
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego, 2013)Following a dynamic development of VaR estimation methods from 90s, in recent literature much attention has been paid to testing procedures designed to evaluate quality of VaR models. There has been a wide-ranging ... -
On MSE Estimation of Some Misspecified Predictor
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego, 2013)The problem of prediction of subpopulation (domain) total is studied as in Rao (2003). The problem is inspired by results obtained by Żądło (2012) who considered two predictors – empirical best linear unbiased predictor ... -
