Statistical Modeling Using Local Gaussian Approximation
Auteurs : Tjøstheim Dag, Otneim Håkon, Støve Bård
Statistical Modeling using Local Gaussian Approximation extends powerful characteristics of the Gaussian distribution, perhaps, the most well-known and most used distribution in statistics, to a large class of non-Gaussian and nonlinear situations through local approximation. This extension enables the reader to follow new methods in assessing dependence and conditional dependence, in estimating probability and spectral density functions, and in discrimination. Chapters in this release cover Parametric, nonparametric, locally parametric, Dependence, Local Gaussian correlation and dependence, Local Gaussian correlation and the copula, Applications in finance, and more.
Additional chapters explores Measuring dependence and testing for independence, Time series dependence and spectral analysis, Multivariate density estimation, Conditional density estimation, The local Gaussian partial correlation, Regression and conditional regression quantiles, and a A local Gaussian Fisher discriminant.

Bård Støve is Professor of Statistics at the University of Bergen. He received his PhD degree in Statistics, 2005. He was Assistant Professor at the Norwegian School of Economics (2007--2011) and worked as an Actuary in a consulting firm (2005--2007). He has been working on the development of nonparametric models and application of such models to areas in finance and economics. He has published several research papers in journals such as Econometric Theory and Scandinavian Journal of Statistics.
