The generalized gamma distribution is a continuous probability distribution with three parameters. It is a generalization of the two-parameter gamma distribution.

AbstractWe develop quantile functions from regression models in order to derive risk margin and to evaluate capital in non-life insurance applications. By utilizing the entire range of conditional quantile functions, especially higher quantile levels, we detail how quantile regression is capable of providing an accurate estimation of risk margin and an overview of implied capital based on the historical volatility of a general insurers loss portfolio.

Abstract:
The distribution of the data is very important in all of the parametric methods used in the applied statistics. More clearly, if the experimental data fit well to the theoretical distribution, the results will be more efficient in parametric methods. The adaptability of experimental data to a theoretical distribution depends on the flexibility of the theoretical distribution used. If the flexibility of the theoretical distribution is sufficient, it can be used easily for experimental data. Most of the theoretical distributions have shape and location parameters. However, these two parameters a

This paper proposes a new nonparametric test for conditional parametric distribution functions based on the first-order linear expansion of the Kullback–Leibler information function and the kernel estimation of the underlying distributions.

Abstract:
The relative efficiency and reliability of parametric and nonparametric sequential accuracy testing plans were investigated using Monte Carlo techniques with normal and non-normal distribution generators. For the normal distributions, zero (no equation bias) and nonzero (some equation bias) means were simulated. For normal distributions with a nonzero mean, a modified nonparametric testing plan was developed and compared with the bias-free parametric test. The parametric testing plans resulted in average sample numbers to reach a terminal decision that were 20–40% smaller than the nonparametri

Abstract:
It is known that Efron’s bootstrap of the mean of a distribution in the domain of attraction of the stable laws with infinite variance is not consistent, in the sense that the limiting distribution of the bootstrap mean is not the same as the limiting distribution of the mean from the real sample. Moreover, the limiting bootstrap distribution is random and unknown. The conventional remedy for this problem, at least asymptotically, is either the m out of n bootstrap or subsampling. However, we show that both these procedures can be unreliable in other than very large samples. We introduce a par

The study constitutes an overall package that includes all different stages of parametric modeling starting from model identification to parameter estimation, model selection and finally model checking.

During the last century we have been frustrated by the number of economic crises which trigger extreme uncertainty in the global economic system. Economic agents are sensitive to the uncertainty of inflations, as well as to asset values, for survival in such circumstances. Hence, modern finance and monetary economics emphasise that risk modelling of asset values and inflations are key inputs to financial theory and monetary policy. The risk is completely described by the distribution which is verified to be time-varying and non-normal. Although various parametric and non-parametric approaches

Abstract Multiple-peril crop insurance policies require statistical modeling of probability distributions of crop yields. Unfortunately, no single parametric distribution is likely to capture the true data generating process.

Recognizing these shortcomings, model and forecast combination are now being applied in crop insurance settings.

Personalised binaural audio requires individual head-related transfer functions (HRTFs). Nowadays, it is feasible to compute HRTFs numerically from meshes of a listener’s anatomy.

Abstract:
COVID-19 has created an unprecedented global health crisis that caused millions of infections and deaths worldwide. Many, however, argue that pre-existing social inequalities have led to inequalities in infection and death rates across social classes, with the most-deprived classes are worst hit. In this paper, we derive semi/non-parametric estimators of Health Concentration Curve (HC) that can quantify inequalities in COVID-19 infections and deaths and help identify the social classes that are most at risk of infection and dying from the virus. We express HC in terms of copula function that w

Abstract:
Drip irrigation has the potential of high water use efficiency, but actual water measurement is difficult because of the limited wetted volume. Two long-term experiments in orchards in Israel and in California and several field crop studies supported by this project have demonstrated the feasibility of precise monitoring of soil water distribution for drip irrigation in spite of the limited soil wetting. Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) enables in situ measurement of soil water content of well defined small volumes. Several approaches were tried in monitoring the soil water balance in the field

Abstract:
This paper develops a flexible, semi-structural framework to empirically quantify the non-linear transmission of income shocks to household portfolio choice decisions both at the extensive and intensive margins. I model stock market participation and portfolio allocation rules as age-dependent functions of persistent and transitory earnings components, wealth and unobserved taste shifters. I establish non-parametric identification and propose a tractable, simulation-based estimation algorithm, building on recent developments in the sample selection literature. Using recent waves of PSID data,
