ASTIN COLLOQUIUM BERLIN 2003, TOPIC 3: RISK CONTROL Modeling and generating dependent risk processes for IRM and DFA

Modern Integrated Risk Management (IRM) and Dynamic Financial Analysis (DFA) rely in great part on an appropriate modeling of the stochastic behavior of the various risky assets and processes that influence the performance of the company under consideration. A major challenge here is a more substantial and realistic description and modeling of the various complex dependence structures between s...

• Elaborate and build upon a growing body of sociological knowledge concerned with cultural resistance and oppositional cultures • Emphasise the significance of human agency in mediating progressive social change • Analyse the innovative ways in which subordinated minority social groups, in this case indigenous Australians, negotiate ‘bi-culturality’, that is, the interface between indigenous c...

Statistics Colloquium

A trend in all scientific disciplines, based on advances in technology, is the increasing availability of high dimensional data in which are buried important information. A current urgent challenge to statisticians is to develop effective methods of finding the useful information from the vast amounts of messy and noisy data available, most of which are noninformative. This paper presents a gen...

Hormonal Regulation Colloquium, London

demonstrate that the light band has the kinetic properties of site 1 with respect to naphth-1-ylacetate binding, whereas the heavy band is kinetically equivalent to site 2. Further, the specificities of the resolved sites towards other auxins and analogues are identical with those deduced from experiments with unfractionated membrane preparations. In summary, membranous preparations from maize ...
