Dynamic Copulas for Finance
ISBN: 9783844100402 / Angielski / Miękka / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The interactions of financial securities are crucial to determine possible portfolio losses. Although this fact is well understood, two questions remain: What causes changes in the dependence structure of financial assets? How can fluctuating dependencies be measured? The most common approach to identify the amplitude of financial assets' interactions are linear correlation coefficients. However, they fail to comprise shifts in the dependence structure. Alternatively, Copulas are a more flexible dependence measurement. This book focuses on the development of Dynamic Copula frameworks by...

Semantic Service Oriented Architectures in Research and Practice
ISBN: 9783844100624 / Angielski / Miękka / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Service Oriented Architectures (SOAs) have become one of the most talked about aspects of modern software architecture design. This book argues that SOAs are not as innovative as often touted, but instead draw from a considerable number of predecessor architectural styles. Additionally, SOAs lack sound means of automating service discovery, composition, and orchestration. Using readily available semantic technologies, thus transforming SOAs to Semantic SOAs (SSOAs), is one way of addressing this deficit. After covering basic foundations of SOAs and surveying knowledge based technologies in...

Contributions to Static and Time-varying Copula-based Modeling of Multivariate Association
ISBN: 9783844101201 / Angielski / Miękka / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Putting a particular emphasis on nonparametric methods that rely on modern empirical process techniques, the author contributes to the theory of static and time-varying stochastic models for multivariate association based on the concept of copulas. These functions enable a profound understanding of multivariate association, which is pivotal for judging whether a large set of risky assets entails diversification effects or aggravates risk from an entrepreneurial point of view. Since serial dependence is a stylized fact of financial time series, an asymptotic theory for estimating the structure...

On Copula Density Estimation and Measures of Multivariate Association
ISBN: 9783844101218 / Angielski / Miękka / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Measuring the degree of association between random variables is a task inherent in many practical applications such as risk management and financial modeling. Well-known measures like Spearman's rho and Kendall's tau can be expressed in terms of the underlying copula only, hence, being independent of the underlying univariate marginal distributions. Opposed to these classical measures of association, mutual information, which is derived from information theory, constitutes a fundamentally different approach of measuring association. Although this measure is likewise independent of the...

Collaboration Support for the Distributed Development of Ontologies
ISBN: 9783844102284 / Angielski / Miękka / 142 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The development of ontologies which aims at capturing knowledge as a formal structural framework, is an important foundation for a wide range of applications. Since ontology development is usually a collaborative activity which may span a long period of time, it is critical to provide developers with a suitable development environment that supports collaboration in a flexible manner and that facilitates the building of robust and accurate ontologies. In this dissertation, the author focusses his effort on providing an easy-to-use collaborative ontology development environment that supports...

The Report analyses the sharp decline in global FDI flows in 2012, which was particularly marked among developed countries. As a consequence, developing economies received more FDI than developed countries for the first time ever. Moreover, developing countries were the source of almost one third of global FDI flows. Over the period 2013 2014, FDI flows are projected to rise moderately. However, a number of potentially destabilizing factors may add...
