Bio
I was born in Michigan in 1961, went to the University of Michigan for my bachelors, and then post-graduate studies in pure mathematics at Wisconsin and Illinois.

I spent most of the 90's working for a bleeding-edge data mining firm called NeoVista and later Accrue. This century I've worked in health…

In the latest issue of the Journal of Credit Risk, Bielecki et al. propose a dynamic bottom-up approach by using Markov copula for pricing and hedging credit index derivatives and ratings-triggered corporate step-up bonds.
The Markov copula procedure works efficiently and is a useful step towards developing a copula-like formalism for multivariate processes, which can be applied to the modeling of credit derivatives. Read the full article and receive the current edition of the…

That's NED for short - our Strathclyde university improve-our-methodology self-help group.
I like to think it can help both qualitative and quantitatives, but I suspect I'm the only mixed method member!

PROC LOESS allows greater flexibility than traditional modeling tools because you can use it for situations in which you do not know a suitable parametric form of the regression surface. Furthermore, PROC LOESS is…

1. A strategy where some cash is dormant on a trading account for most of the time, yielding a return of less than 4% a year when in "dormant mode". Once in a while (it could be every two or three years, sometimes every six months), when large movements occur on the stock market, I step in as…
