However, in some major cities, air pollutant concentrations still exceed the standards. Some scholars have used linear models or conditional autoregressive iterative models to apply the VaR method to predict pollutant concentrations. However, traditional methods based on quantile regression estimation can lead to inadequate risk estimates. Therefore, we propose a method based on the Conditional Autoregressive Value at Risk (CAViaR) model, which uses the kth power expectile regression to estimate VaR. This method does not specify the type of the distribution of data, is easier to calculate the asymptotic variance, more sensitive to extreme values. Applying our method to the data of PM10 in Beijing, we investigate the fitting effects in the case of k = 1, k = 2, and k = 1.9 through predictive tests. The results show that the kth power expectile regression estimates are better than quantile and expectile regression estimates to some extent.展开更多

The Gompertz distribution is widely used to describe the distribution of adult deaths, and some related models used in the economic applications [2].

The main aim of this paper is to obtain the distribution of single, two, and all generalized order statistics from Gompertz distribution with some special cases. In addition the conditional distribution of two generalized order statistics from the same distribution is obtained. The Gompertz distribution has a continuous probability density function with location parameter a and shape parameter b, , where x restricted by the interval .

文摘Recently Hong Shaofang[6] has investigated the sums (np + j)-r ( with an odd prime number p 5 and n, r N) by Washington’s p-adic expansion of these sums as a power series in n where the coefficients are values of p-adic L-fuctions[12]. Herethe author shows how a more general sums (npl +j)-r,l N, may be studied by elementary methods.
