Comparing and quantifying tail dependence
We introduce a new stochastic order for the tail dependence between random variables. We then study different measures of tail dependence which are monotone in the proposed order, thereby extending various known tail dependence coefficients from the literature. We apply our concepts in an empirical study where we investigate the tail dependence for different pairs of S&P 500 stocks and indices, and illustrate the advantage of our measures of tail dependence over the classical tail dependence coefficient.

Cross-sectional Learning of Extremal Dependence among Financial Assets
We propose a novel probabilistic model to facilitate the learning of multivariate tail dependence of multiple financial assets. Our method allows one to construct from known random vectors, e.g., standard normal, sophist…
The generalized underlap coefficient with an application in clustering
Quantifying distributional separation across groups is fundamental in statistical learning and scientific discovery, yet most classical discrepancy measures are tailored to two-group comparisons. We generalize the underl…
Density EstimationA Bayesian nonparametric test for conditional independence
This article introduces a Bayesian nonparametric method for quantifying the relative evidence in a dataset in favour of the dependence or independence of two variables conditional on a third. The approach uses Polya tree…
Causal DiscoverySimilarity of symbol frequency distributions with heavy tails
Quantifying the similarity between symbolic sequences is a traditional problem in Information Theory which requires comparing the frequencies of symbols in different sequences. In numerous modern applications, ranging fr…
