In general, risk of an extreme outcome in financial markets can be expressed as a function of the tail copula of a high-dimensional vector after standardizing marginals. Hence it is of importance to model and estimate tail copulas. Even for moderate dimension, nonparametrically estimating a tail...

The current study contributes to the already substantial scholarly literature on telecommuting by estimating a joint model of three dimensions—option, choice and frequency of telecommuting. In doing so, we focus on workers who are not self-employed workers and who have a primary work place...

Following the framework in Oliva et al. 1987, GEMCAT II implements a flexible method to test catastrophe models containing multivariate (i.e., latent) variables while allowing for a priori variable specifications. The system uses an efficient hybrid minimization algorithm combining the Downhill...
