Multi-period Factor Model of a Loan Portfolio
Šmíd, Martin; Dufek, J.
2017 - English
We construct a general dynamic model of losses of a large loan portfolio, secured by collaterals. In the model, the wealth of a debtor and the price of the corresponding collateral depend each on two factors: a common one, having a general distribution, and an individual one, following an AR(1) process. The default of a loan happens if the wealth stops to be su cient for repaying the loan. We show that the mapping transforming the common factors into the probability of default (PD) and the loss given default (LGD) is one-to-one twice continuously differentiable. As the transformation is not analytically tractable, we propose a numerical technique for its computation and demonstrate its accuracy by a numerical study.\nWe show that the results given by our multi-period model may differ signi cantly from\nthose resulting from single-period models, and demonstrate that our model naturally replicates\nthe empirically observed decrease of PDs within a portfolio in time. In addition, we give a formula for the overall loss of the portfolio and, as an example of its application, we formulate a simple optimal scoring decision problem and discuss its solution.

K otázkám hodnocení radiologických důsledků mimořádných úniků radionuklidů ze skladů vyhořelého jaderného paliva
Pecha, Petr
2017 - Czech
Zkoumána oblast postulovaných nehod ve skladech (bazénech a pak úložištích) vyhořelého paliva. Zde se předpokládá, že krátkodobé nebezpečné nuklidy se již rozpadly na zanedbatelné úrovně a počáteční inventář vyhořelého paliva klesá s časem uskladnění (řádově roky). Na významu nabývají nuklidy s dlouhým poločasem rozpadu. Uvedena srovnávací analýza výsledků kódu HARP s evropským kódem COSYMA. The investigation of potential accidental releases o radionuclides from spent fuel repositories is resumed. Short-term life of radionuclides are assumed to be subsided and decisive role in radiological impact assessment have lradionuclides with long half-lives. Further decrease of radioactivity is then very slow. Comparable analysis of the results acquired by HARP code developed in ÚTIA with results of European code COSYMA is presented.

Diffusion MCMC for Mixture Estimation
Reichl, Jan; Dedecius, Kamil
2016 - English
Distributed inference of parameters of mixture models by a network of cooperating nodes (sensors) with computational and communication capabilities still represents a challenging task. In the last decade, several methods were proposed to solve this issue, predominantly formulated within the expectation-maximization framework and with the assumption of mixture components normality. The present paper adopts the Bayesian approach to inference of general (non-normal) mixtures via the Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation from the parameter posterior distribution. By collaborative tuning of node chains, the method allows reliable estimation even at nodes with significantly worse observational conditions, where the components may tend to merge due to high variances. The method runs in the diffusion networks, where the nodes communicate only with their adjacent neighbors within 1 hop distance.

Adaptive Blind Separation of Instantaneous Linear Mixtures of Independent Sources
Šembera, Ondřej; Tichavský, Petr; Koldovský, Zbyněk
2016 - English
In many applications, there is a need to blindly separate independent sources from their linear instantaneous mixtures while the mixing matrix or source properties are slowly or abruptly changing in time. The easiest way to separate the data is to consider off-line estimation of the model parameters repeatedly in time shifting window. Another popular method is the stochastic natural gradient algorithm, which relies on non-Gaussianity of the separated signals and is adaptive by its nature. In this paper, we propose an adaptive version of two blind source separation algorithms which exploit non-stationarity of the original signals. The results indicate that the proposed algorithms slightly outperform the natural gradient in the trade-off between the algorithm’s ability to quickly adapt to changes in the mixing matrix and the variance of the estimate when the mixing is stationary.

Basic facts concerning extreme supermodular functions
Studený, Milan
2016 - English
Elementary facts and observations on the cone of supermodular set functions are recalled. The manuscript deals with such operations with set functions which preserve supermodularity\nand the emphasis is put on those such operations which even preserve extremality (of a supermodular function). These involve a few self-transformations of the cone of supermodular set functions. Moreover, projections to the (less-dimensional) linear space of set functions for a subset of the variable set are discussed. Finally, several extensions to the (more-dimensional) linear space of set functions for a superset of the variable set are shown to be both preserving supermodularity and extremality.

Sparse robust portfolio optimization via NLP regularizations
Branda, Martin; Červinka, Michal; Schwartz, A.
2016 - English
We deal with investment problems where we minimize a risk measure under a condition on the sparsity of the portfolio. Various risk measures are considered including Value-at-Risk and Conditional Value-at-Risk under normal distribution of returns and their robust counterparts are derived under moment conditions, all leading to nonconvex objective functions. We propose four solution approaches: a mixed-integer formulation, a relaxation of an alternative mixed-integer reformulation and two NLP regularizations. In a numerical study, we compare their computational performance on a large number of simulated instances taken from the literature.
