Efficiency and the logit model

TL;DR: This paper discusses model building for discrete choice problems in the simplest case - the logit model, and concludes that the efficiency approach lies in its simple, testable basic behavioral assumptions.

A mixture model for the PDF of a diffusing scalar in a turbulent flow

TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose to represent the probability density function of a scalar diffusing in a turbulent flow as a mixture of two probability density functions, and apply it to a wide variety of experimental data sets including those obtained from large-scale environmental flows.

Operational Risk : The Sting is Still in the Tail But the Poison Dependson the Dose

TL;DR: In this paper, the generalized parametric measurement methods of aggregate operational risk in compliance with the regulatory capital standards for operational risk were investigated in the New Basel Capital Accord ("Basel II").

Climate as a game of chance

TL;DR: The role of randomness in chaotic systems, like Earth's climate, in response to external forcing is examined in this article, where a simple homogeneous system is determined by its correlation function in accordance with the fluctuation-dissipation theorem.

Tail index estimation in small smaples Simulation results for independent and ARCH-type financial return models

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a small sample simulation study of adaptive estimators under ARCH-type dependence and find that the Hill estimator is dominated by a ratio estimator.
