Notes on Correlation Stress Tests
This note outlines an approach to stress testing of covariance of financial time series, in the context of financial risk management. It discusses how the geodesic distance between covariance matrices implies a notion of plausibility of covariance stress tests. In this approach, correlation stress tests span a submanifold of constant determinant of the Fisher--Rao manifold of covariance matrices. A parsimonious geometrically invariant definition of arbitrarily large correlation stress tests is proposed, and a few examples are discussed.

Correlation scenarios and correlation stress testing
We develop a general approach for stress testing correlations of financial asset portfolios. The correlation matrix of asset returns is specified in a parametric form, where correlations are represented as a function of …
Variable SelectionA factor-model approach for correlation scenarios and correlation stress-testing
In 2012, JPMorgan accumulated a USD~6.2 billion loss on a credit derivatives portfolio, the so-called `London Whale', partly as a consequence of de-correlations of non-perfectly correlated positions that were supposed to…
Individual performance calibration using physiological stress signals
The relation between performance and stress is described by the Yerkes-Dodson Law but varies significantly between individuals. This paper describes a method for determining the individual optimal performance as a functi…
ChartGenEval: Corruption-Tested Multi-Dimensional Feedback for Rhythm-Game Chart Generation
A generated rhythm-game chart need not reproduce one official note sequence: many note choices can fit the same song and difficulty. Reference-note agreement therefore measures reconstruction, not the full design problem…
Lecture Notes: Selected topics on robust statistical learning theory
These notes gather recent results on robust statistical learning theory. The goal is to stress the main principles underlying the construction and theoretical analysis of these estimators rather than provide an exhaustiv…
