Abstract:
Student t distribution has been widely applied in the course of statistics. In this paper, we focus on finding a geodesic equation of the two parameter student t distributions. To find this equation, we applied both the well-known Darboux Theorem and a triply of partial differential equations taken from Struik D.J. (Struik, D.J., 1961) or Grey A (Grey A., 1993), As expected, the two different approaches reach the same type of results. The solution proposed in this paper could be used as a general solution of the geodesic equation for the student t distribution.

Abstract:
The Generalized AutoRegressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) type models have become important tools in financial application since their ability to estimate the volatility of financial time series data. In the empirical financial literature, the presence of skewness and heavy-tails have impacts on how well the GARCH-type models able to capture the financial market volatility sufficiently. This study estimates the volatility of financial asset returns based on the GARCH(1,1) model assuming Skew Normal and Skew Student-t distributions for the returns errors. The models are applied to daily returns of FTSE100 and IBEX35 stock indices from January 2000 to December 2017. The model parameters are estimated by using the Generalized Reduced Gradient Non-Linear method in Excel’s Solver and also the Adaptive Random Walk Metropolis method implemented in Matlab. The estimation results from fitting the models to real data demonstrate that Excel’s Solver is a promising way for estimating the parameters of the GARCH(1,1) models with non-Normal distribution, indicated by the accuracy of the estimation of Excel’s Solver. The fitting performance of models is evaluated by using log-likelihood ratio test and it indicates that the GARCH(1,1) model with Skew Student-t distribution provides the best fitting, followed by Student-t, Skew-Normal, and Normal distributions.

Abstract:
AbstractGaussian process model for vector-valued function has been shown to be useful for multi-output prediction. The existing method for this model is to reformulate the matrix-variate Gaussian distribution as a multivariate normal distribution. Although it is effective in many cases, reformulation is not always workable and is difficult to apply to other distributions because not all matrix-variate distributions can be transformed to respective multivariate distributions, such as the case for matrix-variate Student-t distribution. In this paper, we propose a unified framework which is used not only to introduce a novel multivariate Student-t process regression model (MV-TPR) for multi-output prediction, but also to reformulate the multivariate Gaussian process regression (MV-GPR) that overcomes some limitations of the existing methods. Both MV-GPR and MV-TPR have closed-form expressions for the marginal likelihoods and predictive distributions under this unified framework and thus can adopt the same optimization approaches as used in the conventional GPR. The usefulness of the proposed methods is illustrated through several simulated and real-data examples. In particular, we verify empirically that MV-TPR has superiority for the datasets considered, including air quality prediction and bike rent prediction. At last, the proposed methods are shown to produce profitable investment strategies in the stock markets.

Abstract:
Volatility forecasting has been of great interest both in academic and professional fields all over the world. However, there is no agreement about the best model to estimate
 volatility. New models include measures of skewness, changes of regimes and different distributions; few studies, though, have considered different distributions. This paper aims to
 investigate how the specification of a distribution influences the performance of volatility forecasting on Ibovespa intraday data, using the APARCH model. The forecasts were carried
 out assuming six distinct distributions: normal, skewed normal, t-student, skewed t-student, generalized and skewed generalized. The results evidence that the model considering the skewed t-student distribution offered the best fit to the data inside the sample, on the other hand, the model assuming a normal distribution provided a better out-of-the-sample performance forecast.

Includes bibliographical references.<br>This thesis focuses on forecasting the volatility of daily returns using a double Markov switching GARCH model with a skewed Student-t error distribution. The model was applied to individual shares obtained from the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE). The Bayesian approach which uses Markov Chain Monte Carlo was used to estimate the unknown parameters in the model. The double Markov switching GARCH model was compared to a GARCH(1,1) model. Value at risk thresholds and violations ratios were computed leading to the ranking of the GARCH and double Markov switching GARCH models. The results showed that double Markov switching GARCH model performs similarly to the GARCH model based on the ranking technique employed in this thesis.

Abstract:
In this study, different from previous studies, the explanatory power of Student-t distribution is compared to normal distribution by employing both standard GARCH and EGARCH models to dollar/ lira (USD/TRY) exchange rate. Then the impact of Central Bank of Republic of the Turkey&rsquo<br>s (CBRT) decisions and actions on both the level of exchange rate and the volatility is investigated. Moreover the relationship between volatility and market liquidity is examined using spot foreign exchange (FX) market volume as a proxy. The results reveal that, in contrast to preceding findings, Student-t could not capture the leptokurtic property better than normal distribution does. Furthermore, an increase in Turkish government benchmark bond rates, CBRT FX purchase interventions and announcement of suspending/ decreasing-the-amount-of FX auctions lead Turkish lira to depreciate. Because of the significant positive leverage effect, the results of GARCH and EGARCH variance equations differ so much. Thereby the results should be evaluated cautiously. In addition it is observed that, only EGARCH model gives significant results when the spot market trading volume is included in the models

Abstract:
The role of risk management has gained momentum in recent years most notably after the recent financial crisis. This thesis uses a quantitative approach to evaluate the theory of value at risk which is considered a benchmark to measure financial risk. The thesis makes use of both parametric and non parametric approaches to evaluate the effectiveness of VAR as a standard tool in measuring risk of stock portfolio. This study uses the normal distribution, student t-distribution, historical simulation and the exponential weighted moving average at 95% and 99% confidence levels on the stock returns of Sonny Ericsson, Three Months Swedish Treasury bill (STB3M) and Nordea Bank. The evaluations of the VAR models are based on the Kupiec (1995) Test. From a general perspective, the results of the study indicate that VAR as a proxy of risk measurement has some imprecision in its estimates. However, this imprecision is not all the same for all the approaches. The results indicate that models which assume normality of return distribution display poor performance at both confidence levels than models which assume fatter tails or have leptokurtic characteristics. Another finding from the study which may be interesting is the fact that during the period of high volatility such as the financial crisis of 2008, the imprecision of VAR estimates increases. For the parametric approaches, the t-distribution VAR estimates were accurate at 95% confidence level, while normal distribution approach produced inaccurate estimates at 95% confidence level. However both approaches were unable to provide accurate estimates at 99% confidence level. For the non parametric approaches the exponentially weighted moving average outperformed the historical simulation approach at 95% confidence level, while at the 99% confidence level both approaches tend to perform equally. The results of this study thus question the reliability on VAR as a standard tool in measuring risk on stock portfolio. It also suggest that more research should be done to improve on the accuracy of VAR approaches, given that the role of risk management in today’s business environment is increasing ever than before. The study suggest VAR should be complemented with other risk measures such as Extreme value theory and stress testing, and that more than one back testing techniques should be used to test the accuracy of VAR.

Abstract:
L'apprentisage de structure de graphes est un problème essentiel dans de nombreuses applications, i.e. génétiques, neuroscience.L'estimation de la matrice de covariance/précision est le point crucial. Les techniques usuelles souffrent de deux problèmes. Le premier problème est la robustesse aux données non gaussiennes. Le second problème est le manque de données quand le nombre de paramètres à estimer est trop grand devant la taille de l'échantillon disponible. L'objectif de cette thèse est de fournir des méthodes robustes et adaptée à une faible taille d'échantillon.La première contribution de cette thèse considère les estimateurs de maximum de vraisemblance de la matrice de covariance avec shrinkage sous l'hypothèse de distributions à queue lourde et moyenne inconnue. La difficulté principale est le choix du paramètre de régularisation. Nous dérivons une expression explicite du coefficient de shrinkage pour toute distribution elliptique. Nous proposons aussi un algorithm dans le cas de distribution de Student multivariée qui est appliqué à des données simulées et des données réelles.La deuxième contribution concerne l'estimation de matrice de précision parcimonieuse pour des données non gaussiennes. En partant des résultats de la littérature, nous avons généralisé ceux-ci à des modèles de mélanges en grande dimension pour une sous-classe de famille de distribution elliptique.Pour finir, nous avons testé nos approches sur des données réelles d'IRMf. La structure estimée est soit la correlation soit la correlation partielle. Nous proposons une nouvelle construction de graphes prenant en compte la correlation et la correlation partielle. Cette nouvelle approche est validée sur des simulations et des données réelles<br>Structure learning in graphical models is an essential topic in different application areas, i.e., genetics, neuroscience. The crucial part of this model is the estimation of covariance/precision matrices. Traditional techniques for handling this problem suffer from two main issues. The first one is the lack of robustness when samples are assumed to follow a Gaussian distribution. The second one is the lack of data when the number of parameters to estimate is too large compared to the number of samples. Thus this thesis aims to build robust high-dimensional models for covariance and precision matrices estimation.The first question we address in the manuscript is the link between zero elements of precision matrices and the measure of the relationship between variables it reveals for different distributions.par In the first main contribution of this thesis we consider the shrinked likelihood-based estimators of the covariance matrix under the assumption of heavy-tailed distribution with unknown mean vector. The main difficulty at this point is the choice of the regularization parameters. We provide a closed-form expression of an optimal shrinkage coefficient for any sample distribution in the elliptical family. Based on these results, an algorithm for the case of the multivariate t-distribution with the simulated and real data is presented.The second contribution is dealing with sparse precision matrix estimation for the non-Gaussian data. Starting with the traditional techniques, we are able to generalize results for the high-dimensional mixture models for the subclass of elliptical family.Finally, we test our graph structure learning approach on brain signals using fMRI. The structure induced by both the correlation and the partial correlation is considered. We then propose a new graph construction method taking into account both conditional and marginal independences. The proposed approach shows better results than classical algorithms

It is considered an autoimmune disease in which the immune system wrongly recognizes the myelin sheath of the CNS as an external element and attacks it, resulting in inflammation and scarring (sclerosis) of multiple areas of CNS’s white matter. Multi-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been successfully used in diagnosing and monitoring MS due to its excellent properties such as high resolution and good differentiation between soft tissues. Nowadays, the preferred method to segment MS lesions is the manual segmentation, which is done by specialists with limited help of a computer. However, this approach is tiresome, expensive and prone to error due to inter- and intra-variability between observers caused by low contrast on lesion edges. The challenge in automatic detection and segmentation of MS lesions in MR images is related to the variability of size and location of lesions, low contrast due to partial volume effect and the high range of forms that lesions can take depending on the stage of the disease. Recently, many researchers have turned their efforts into developing techniques that aim to accurately measure volumes of brain tissues and MS lesions, and also to reduce the amount of time spent on image analysis. In this context, this project proposes the study and development of an automatic computational technique based on an outlier detection approach, Student’s t-distribution finite mixture models and probabilistic atlases to segment and measure MS lesions volumes in MR images.<br>Esclerose Múltipla (EM) é uma doença inflamatória e desmielinizante (isto é, com perda de mielina) do sistema nervoso central (SNC). É considerada uma doença autoimune a qual o sistema imunológico reconhece erroneamente a bainha de mielina do SNC como um elemento externo e então a ataca, resultando em inflamação e formação de cicatrizes gliais (escleroses) em múltiplas áreas da substância branca do SNC. O imageamento multi- contraste por ressonância magnética (RM) tem sido usado clinicamente com muito sucesso para o diagnóstico e monitoramento da EM devido às suas excelentes propriedades como alta resolução e boa diferenciação de tecidos moles. Atualmente, o método utilizado para a segmentação de lesões de EM é o delineamento manual em imagens 3D de RM, o qual é realizado por especialistas com ajuda limitada do computador. Entretanto, tal procedimento é custoso e propenso à variabilidade inter e intraobservadores devido ao baixo contraste das bordas das lesões. A grande dificuldade na detecção e segmentação automáticas das le- sões de EM em imagens de RM está associada às suas variações no tamanho e localização, baixo contraste decorrente do efeito de volume parcial e o amplo espectro de aparências (realçadas, não-realçadas, black-holes) que elas podem ter, dependendo do estado evolutivo da doença. Atualmente, vários pesquisadores têm voltado seus esforços para o desenvol- vimento de técnicas que visam diminuir o tempo gasto na análise das imagens e medir, de maneira mais precisa, o volume dos tecidos cerebrais e das lesões de EM. Nesse contexto, este projeto propõe o estudo e o desenvolvimento de uma técnica computacional automá- tica, baseada na abordagem de detecção de outliers e usando modelos de misturas finitas de distribuições t-Student e atlas probabilísticos para a segmentação e medição do volume de lesões de EM em imagens de RM.<br>FAPESP: 2014/00019-6

Abstract:
In the financial industry, it has been increasingly popular to measure risk. One of the most common quantitative measures for assessing risk is Value-at-Risk (VaR). VaR helps to measure extreme risks that an investor is exposed to. In addition to acquiring information of the expected loss, VaR was introduced in the regulatory frameworks of Basel I and II as a standardized measure of market risk. Due to necessity of measuring VaR accurately, this thesis aims to be a contribution to the research field of applying GARCH-models to financial time series in order to forecast the conditional variance and find accurate VaR-estimations. The findings in this thesis is that GARCH-models which incorporate the asymmetric effect of positive and negative returns perform better than a standard GARCH. Further on, leptokurtic distributions have been found to outperform normal distribution. In addition to various models and distributions, various rolling windows have been used to examine how the forecasts differ given window lengths.

Abstract:
Abstract There are a number of in-built probability distributions, including uniform, binomial, negative binomial, normal, log-normal, logistic, exponential, Chisquared, Poisson, gamma, Fisher's F, Student's t, Weibull and others. These are used to generate p-values from test statistics, to generate random values from a distribution or to generate expected distributions. This chapter deals with standard distributions in R (a programming language that has a huge range of inbuilt statistical and graphical functions), focusing on the normal, Student's t, lognormal, logistic, Poisson, gamma, and the Chi-squared.

Abstract:
Most existing survey aggregation methods assume that the sample data follow Gaussian distribution. However, these methods are sensitive to outliers, due to the thin-tailed property of the Gaussian distribution. To address this issue, we propose a robust survey aggregation method based on Student-t distribution and sparse representation. Specifically, we assume that the samples follow Student-$t$ distribution, instead of the common Gaussian distribution. Due to the Student-t distribution, our method is robust to outliers, which can be explained from both Bayesian point of view and non-Bayesian point of view. In addition, inspired by James-Stain estimator (JS) and Compressive Averaging (CAvg), we propose to sparsely represent the global mean vector by an adaptive basis comprising both data-specific basis and combined generic bases. Theoretically, we prove that JS and CAvg are special cases of our method. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our proposed method achieves significant improvement over the state-of-the-art methods on both synthetic and real datasets.

Abstract:
We propose a robust multivariate density estimator based on the variational autoencoder (VAE). The VAE is a powerful deep generative model, and used for multivariate density estimation. With the original VAE, the distribution of observed continuous variables is assumed to be a Gaussian, where its mean and variance are modeled by deep neural networks taking latent variables as their inputs. This distribution is called the decoder. However, the training of VAE often becomes unstable. One reason is that the decoder of VAE is sensitive to the error between the data point and its estimated mean when its estimated variance is almost zero. We solve this instability problem by making the decoder robust to the error using a Bayesian approach to the variance estimation: we set a prior for the variance of the Gaussian decoder, and marginalize it out analytically, which leads to proposing the Student-t VAE. Numerical experiments with various datasets show that training of the Student-t VAE is robust, and the Student-t VAE achieves high density estimation performance.
