Searching for an optimal AUC estimation method : a never-ending task?
Autorzy:
Jawień, Wojciech
Opis:
An effective method of construction of a linear estimator of AUC in the finite interval, optimal in the minimax sense, is developed and demonstrated for five PK models. The models may be given as an explicit $C_{t}$ relationship or defined by differential equations. For high variability and rich sampling the optimal method is only moderately advantageous over optimal trapezoid or standard numerical approaches (Gauss-Legendre or Clenshaw- Curtis quadratures). The difference between the optimal estimator and other methods becomes more pronounced with a decrease in sample size or decrease in the variability. The described estimation method may appear useful in development of limited-sampling strategies for AUC determination, as an alternative to the widely used regression-based approach. It is indicated that many alternative approaches are also possible.

Opis:
The class of $\alpha$-stable distributions is widely used in various applications, especially for modeling heavy-tailed data. Although the $\alpha$-stable distributions have been used in practice for many years, new methods for identification, testing, and estimation are still being refined and new approaches are being proposed. The constant development of new statistical methods is related to the low efficiency of existing algorithms, especially when the underlying sample is small or the distribution is close to Gaussian. In this paper, we propose a new estimation algorithm for the stability index, for samples from the symmetric $\alpha$-stable distribution. The proposed approach is based on a quantile conditional variance ratio. We study the statistical properties of the proposed estimation procedure and show empirically that our methodology often outperforms other commonly used estimation algorithms. Moreover, we show that our statistic extracts unique sample characteristics that can be combined with other methods to refine existing methodologies via ensemble methods. Although our focus is set on the symmetric $\alpha$-stable case, we demonstrate that the considered statistic is insensitive to the skewness parameter change, so our method could be also used in a more generic framework. For completeness, we also show how to apply our method to real data linked to financial market and plasma physics.

A computer program was constructed that simulates large species assemblages (28 to 997 species) with various species-rank order distributions and degrees of aggregation of the species. From these model assemblages random samples were taken to study the performance of 14 estimators of species diversity. For 6 of the estimators correction factors are developed. In sufficiently large samples (more than 2/3 of the true species number (TS) sampled) a corrected second order jackknife estimator gave the best results. 18% of the estimates ranged outside TS ± 10%. If fewer species are represented in the sample (but more than 1/3 TS) two newly developed data analytical estimators performed better. Between 23 and 24%, respectively, of their estimates ranged outside TS ± 20%. Crucial to the performance of all of the estimators is the sample size. The minimum sample size for an estimator to work has to contain at least 1/3 of the total species number.

Opis:
The objective of this work is to examine the impact of selection of the type of the rate of return, the distribution and estimation horizon applied on the results of modelling of rates of return. For this purpose, normal and logarithmic rate of return will be used, and the following distributions will be taken into account: skewed normal, skewed t-Student, skewed GED and stable distribution. In addition, in order to specify the significance of maturity of the capital market on the quality of the models obtained, the rate of return from S&P500 and WIG will be subject to modelling.
