Abstract: This paper introduces a multivariate density estimator for truncated and censored data with special emphasis on extreme values based on survival analysis A local constant density estimator is considered We extend this estimator by means of tail flattening transformation, dimension reducing prior knowledge and a combination of both The asymptotic theory is derived for the proposed estimators It shows that the extensions might improve the performance of the density estimator when the transformation and the prior knowledge is not too far away from the true distribution A simulation study shows that the density estimator based on tail flattening transformation and prior knowledge substantially outperforms the one without prior knowledge, and therefore confirms the asymptotic results The proposed estimators are illustrated and compared in a data study of fire insurance claims

Bandwidth selection in marker dependent kernel hazard estimation
TL;DR: Indirect cross-validation is shown to be superior when selecting a fully feasible estimation method for marker dependent hazard estimation and breaks down in the practical data application to old-age mortality.

Adding prior knowledge to quantitative operational risk models
TL;DR: Nielsen et al. as discussed by the authors proposed an approach based on the study of the statistical severity distribution of a single loss and analyzed the fundamental issues that arise in practice when modeling operational risk data.
