Avoiding zero probability events when computing Value at Risk contributions
This paper is concerned with the process of risk allocation for a generic multivariate model when the risk measure is chosen as the Value-at-Risk (VaR). We recast the traditional Euler contributions from an expectation conditional on an event of zero probability to a ratio involving conditional expectations whose conditioning events have strictly positive probability. We derive an analytical form of the proposed representation of VaR contributions for various parametric models. Our numerical experiments show that the estimator using this novel representation outperforms the standard Monte Carlo estimator in terms of bias and variance. Moreover, unlike the existing estimators, the proposed estimator is free from hyperparameters under a parametric setting.

Controlled Reach-avoid Set Computation for Discrete-time Polynomial Systems via Convex Optimization
This paper addresses the computation of controlled reach-avoid sets (CRASs) for discrete-time polynomial systems subject to control inputs. A CRAS is a set encompassing initial states from which there exist control input…

Reservoir computing (RC) couples a fixed recurrent dynamical system with a trained lightweight readout, but this efficiency is partly lost during hyperparameter selection: the recurrent gain, input scale, and leakage rat…
