Optimal Changes of Gaussian Measures, with an Applications to Resimulation

نویسنده

  • Henry Schellhorn
چکیده

We derive optimality conditions and calculate approximate solutions to the problem of determining the optimal speed of mean reversion to be applied to a Gaussian state variable. The optimality criterion is the minimization of the variance of the Radon-Nikodym derivative of the measure ”with mean-reversion” with respect to the measure ”without mean-reversion” under constraints. We show that we can increase the speed of performing resimulation and sensitivity analysis in a Monte Carlo simulation. We apply our results to the pricing of real options and the pricing of interest-rate derivatives in the BGM/Libor model of interest rates.

The Tail Mean-Variance Model and Extended Efficient Frontier

In portfolio theory, it is well-known that the distributions of stock returns often have non-Gaussian characteristics. Therefore, we need non-symmetric distributions for modeling and accurate analysis of actuarial data. For this purpose and optimal portfolio selection, we use the Tail Mean-Variance (TMV) model, which focuses on the rare risks but high losses and usually happens in the tail of r...

Evaluation of Similarity Measures for Template Matching

Image matching is a critical process in various photogrammetry, computer vision and remote sensing applications such as image registration, 3D model reconstruction, change detection, image fusion, pattern recognition, autonomous navigation, and digital elevation model (DEM) generation and orientation. The primary goal of the image matching process is to establish the correspondence between two ...

Evaluating the efficiency and classifying the fuzzy data: A DEA based ‎approach

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) has been proven as an efficient technique to evaluate the performance of homogeneous decision making units (DMUs) where multiple inputs and outputs exist. In the conventional applications of DEA, the data are considered as specific numerical values with explicit designation of being an input or output. However, the observed values of the data are sometimes imprec...

Recognizing the Emotional State Changes in Human Utterance by a Learning Statistical Method based on Gaussian Mixture Model

Speech is one of the most opulent and instant methods to express emotional characteristics of human beings, which conveys the cognitive and semantic concepts among humans. In this study, a statistical-based method for emotional recognition of speech signals is proposed, and a learning approach is introduced, which is based on the statistical model to classify internal feelings of the utterance....

A New Type-2 Fuzzy Systems for Flexible-Joint Robot Arm Control

In this paper an adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system based on interval Gaussian type-2 fuzzy sets in the antecedent part and Gaussian type-1 fuzzy sets as coefficients of linear combination of input variables in the consequent part is presented. The capability of the proposed method (we named ANFIS2) to function approximation and dynamical system identification is shown. The ANFIS2 structure ...
