Sparse Regression with Multi-type Regularized Feature Modeling

Sander Devriendt, Katrien Antonio, Tom Reynkens +1

Within the statistical and machine learning literature, regularization techniques are often used to construct sparse (predictive) models. Most regularization strategies only work f…

Modelling Censored Losses Using Splicing: a Global Fit Strategy With Mixed Erlang and Extreme Value Distributions

Tom Reynkens, Roel Verbelen, Jan Beirlant +1

In risk analysis, a global fit that appropriately captures the body and the tail of the distribution of losses is essential. Modelling the whole range of the losses using a standar…

Fitting tails affected by truncation

Jan Beirlant, Isabel Fraga Alves, Tom Reynkens

In several applications, ultimately at the largest data, truncation effects can be observed when analysing tail characteristics of statistical distributions. In some cases truncati…
