To improve the compressive sensing MRI (CS-MRI) approaches in terms of fine structure loss under high acceleration factors, we have proposed an iterative feature refinement model (IFR-CS), equipped with fixed transforms, to restore the meaningful structures and details. Nevertheless, the proposed IFR-CS still has some …

Study extreme-case Value-at-Risk under IFR distributions, providing guidance for risk management.
Tutorial on estimating PD using survival analysis under IFRS 9.
We redefine SICR-events for better loan classification under IFRS 9.
Develops a PD estimation model using Lévy-driven processes for credit risk.
Survival analysis models predict loan write-off risk under IFRS 9.
Study improves loan default risk estimation using advanced regression models.
In banking practice, rating transition matrices have become the standard approach of deriving multi-year probabilities of default (PDs) from one-year PDs, the latter normally being available from Basel ratings. Rating transition matrices have gained in importance with the newly adopted IFRS 9 accounting standard. Here,…
Credit Value Adjustment (CVA) is the difference between the value of the default-free and credit-risky derivative portfolio, which can be regarded as the cost of the credit hedge. Default probabilities are therefore needed, as input parameters to the valuation. When liquid CDS are available, then implied probabilities …
Model calculates capital requirements for multi-line insurance companies.
A new method detects and removes false trailing balances in credit data.
The study examines Cox models for lifetime loan default risk, addressing biased estimates by incorporating recurrent events.
After the release of the final accounting standards for impairment in July 2014 by the IASB, banks will face the next significant methodological challenge after Basel 2. In this paper, first methodological thoughts are presented, and ways how to approach underlying questions are proposed. It starts with a detailed disc…
We propose two variants of the Smith-Wilson method for practical application in the insurance industry. Our first variant relaxes the Smith-Wilson energy and can be used to incorporate less reliable market data with a certain weight rather than disregarding it completely. This is particularly useful for deriving yield …
This paper investigates market-consistent valuation of insurance liabilities in the context of, for instance, Solvency II and to some extent IFRS 4. We propose an explicit and consistent framework for the valuation of insurance liabilities which incorporates the Solvency II approach as a special case. The proposed fram…
The paper stabilizes PD term structures under forecast uncertainty using a Kalman filter with an anchored observation model.
This paper proposes a simple technical approach for the analytical derivation of Point-in-Time PD (probability of default) forecasts, with minimal data requirements. The inputs required are the current and future Through-the-Cycle PDs of the obligors, their last known default rates, and a measurement of the systematic …
Bond rating Transition Probability Matrices (TPMs) are built over a one-year time-frame and for many practical purposes, like the assessment of risk in portfolios or the computation of banking Capital Requirements (e.g. the new IFRS 9 regulation), one needs to compute the TPM and probabilities of default over a smaller…
The dependency structure of credit risk parameters is a key driver for capital consumption and receives regulatory and scientific attention. The impact of parameter imperfections on the quality of expected loss (EL) in the sense of a fair, unbiased estimate of risk expenses however is barely covered. So far there are n…
