Defective models for cure rate modeling
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2016-04-01)
Modeling of a cure fraction, also known as long-term survivors, is a part of survival analysis. It studies cases where supposedly there are observations not susceptible to the event of interest. Such cases require special ...
Models for inflated data applied to credit risk analysis
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2016-09-27)
In this thesis, we introduce a methodology based on zero-inflated survival data for the
purposes of dealing with propensity to default (credit risk) in bank loan portfolios. Our
approach enables us to accommodate three ...
Modelos série de potência com excesso de zeros observáveis e latentes
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2016-09-28)
The present work's main objective is to study the significance of zeros in an observable
and latent data. In observable data set that occur excess of zeros, its common to have
sobredispersion. In this sense, the models ...
