The goal of this document is to present a methodology for estimating probabilities for ordered sets. This may have several practical applications such as calibration of Rating Models, estimation of Mortality Tables or measurement of side effects related to different doze sizes. In order to do...

In small samples and especially in the case of small true default probabilities, standard approaches to credit default probability estimation have certain drawbacks. Most importantly, standard estimators tend to underestimate the true default probability which is of course an undesirable...
