The paper quantifies when a trading strategy's drawdown becomes a cause for concern.

problem Detecting when a profitable trading strategy starts to degrade over time.
method Quantitative analysis of drawdown length and depth for upward drifting Brownian motions.
result Drawdowns lasting too long or being too deep indicate a need to revise the strategy's Sharpe ratio.

In the paper "On Truncated Variation of Brownian Motion with Drift" (Bull. Pol. Acad. Sci. Math. 56 (2008), no.4, 267 - 281) we defined truncated variation of Brownian motion with drift, Wt=Bt+μt,t0,W_t = B_t + μt, t\geq 0, where (Bt)(B_t) is a standard Brownian motion. Truncated variation differs from regular variation by neglect…

Paper trains models to resist spurious patterns by having humans revise documents.

problem Machine learning models often rely on spurious patterns, leading to poor performance.
method Humans revise documents to retain coherence and avoid unnecessary changes, creating a combined dataset.
result Models trained on combined datasets perform better than those trained on original or manipulated data alone.

New method identifies uncertainty shocks in financial markets using revised VIX.

problem Traditional VIX fails to capture non-Gaussian, heavy-tailed asset returns.
method Fit a double-subordinated Normal Inverse Gaussian Levy process to S&P 500 option prices to construct a revised VIX.
result Revised VIX provides a more comprehensive measure of volatility reflecting extreme movements and heavy tails.

News might trigger jump arrivals in financial time series. The "bad" and "good" news seems to have distinct impact. In the research, a double exponential jump distribution is applied to model downward and upward jumps. Bayesian double exponential jump-diffusion model is proposed. Theorems stated in the paper enable est…

Bayesian logistic regression improves clinical risk prediction models over time.

problem Improving clinical risk prediction models after deployment to adapt to temporal shifts.
method Bayesian logistic regression (BLR) and Markov variant (MarBLR) for online recalibration and revision of prediction models.
result BLR and MarBLR consistently outperform static models and other online revision methods, improving average AUC and calibration index.

To infer a multilayer representation of high-dimensional count vectors, we propose the Poisson gamma belief network (PGBN) that factorizes each of its layers into the product of a connection weight matrix and the nonnegative real hidden units of the next layer. The PGBN's hidden layers are jointly trained with an upwar…

We analyze differences between two information-theoretically motivated approaches to statistical inference and model selection: the Minimum Description Length (MDL) principle, and the Minimum Message Length (MML) principle. Based on this analysis, we present two revised versions of MML: a pointwise estimator which give…

This is the first of two articles in which we give a proof - for a broad class of four-manifolds - of Witten's conjecture that the Donaldson and Seiberg-Witten series coincide, at least through terms of degree less than or equal to c-2, where c is a linear combination of the Euler characteristic and signature of the fo…

We propose a primitive called PJOIN, for "predictive join," which combines and extends the operations JOIN and LINK, which Valiant proposed as the basis of a computational theory of cortex. We show that PJOIN can be implemented in Valiant's model. We also show that, using PJOIN, certain reasonably complex learning and …
