Journal ArticleDOI
An Introduction to the Bootstrap
TL;DR: Statistical theory attacks the problem from both ends as discussed by the authors, and provides optimal methods for finding a real signal in a noisy background, and also provides strict checks against the overinterpretation of random patterns.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computing Maximum Likelihood Estimates for the Generalized Pareto Distribution
TL;DR: The generalized Pareto distribution (GPD) as mentioned in this paper is a two-parameter family of distributions that can be used to model exceedances over a threshold, since they are asymptotically normal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Some Loans Are More Equal than Others: Third–Party Originations and Defaults in the Subprime Mortgage Industry
TL;DR: This paper used a hazard model with jointly estimated competing risks and unobserved heterogeneity to find empirical support for the TPO/default prediction using individual fixed-rate subprime loans with first liens secured by residential real estate originated between January 1, 1996, and December 31, 1998.
Journal ArticleDOI
Markov chain models for delinquency: Transition matrix estimation and forecasting
TL;DR: In this article, the authors apply a Markov chain model to subprime loans that appear neither homogeneous nor stationary, and derive both empirical and logarithmic estimators for the transition matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI
Control Charts for Quantile Function Values
Scott D. Grimshaw,Frank B. Alt +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a control chart is proposed which monitors the conformance of a sample to an in-control distribution using the quantile or inverse cumulative distribution function, which permits detecting changes in the distributional shape which may be undetectable.
