블랙-숄즈 모형이 실제 기초자산의 움직임을 반영하지 못한다는 사실이 실증연구에 의하여 밝혀진 이후 기초자산의 움직임을 레비확률과정을 이용하여 모형화한 옵션가격결정 모형들이 그 대안 중 하나로 연구되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 블랙-숄즈 모형의 대안으로 제시된 레비모형 중 Variance Gamma 모형이 국내 주식시장에서의 기초자산의 움직임을 블랙-숄즈 모형보다 충실히 재현해내는지 알아보고자 한다. 이를 위하여 Madan 등 (1998)의 연구에서와 같이 로그수익률의 확률밀도함수와 옵션 가격 결정식을 바탕으로 KOSPI 200자료를 이용하여 모수를 추정하고 우도비 검정을 실시하였다. 또한, 옵션 가격을 추정한 후 모형 간의 비교를 위하여 다양한 통계량을 계산하고, 회귀분석을 통하여 변동성 스마일 현상이 교정되는지를 살펴보았다. 연구결과로부터 Variance Gamma 모형 하에서 추정된 옵션 가격이 블랙-숄즈 모형 하에서 추정된 그것보다 더 시장가격과 가까우나, 이 모형도 변동성 스마일 현상을 해결해주지는 못함을 확인할 수 있었다.

Exponential L$\acute{e}$evy models have become popular in modeling price processes recently in mathematical finance. Although it is a relatively simple extension of the geometric Brownian motion, it makes the market incomplete so that the option price is not uniquely determined. As a trial to find an appropriate price for an option, we suppose a situation where a hedger wants to initially invest as little as possible, but wants to have the expected squared loss at the end not exceeding a certain constant. For this, we assume that the underlying price process follows a variance-gamma model and it converges to a geometric Brownian motion as its quadratic variation converges to a constant. In the limit, we use the mean-variance approach to find the asymptotic minimum investment with the expected squared loss bounded. Some numerical results are also provided.

Many mechanical, electrical and electronic products have more than one performance characteristics (PCs). For example the performance degradation of rubidium discharge lamps can be characterized by the rubidium consumption or the decreasing intensity the lamp. The product may degrade due to all the PCs which may be independent or dependent. This paper deals with the design of optimal bivariate step-stress partially accelerated degradation test (PADT) with degradation paths modelled by gamma process. The dependency between PCs has been modelled through Frank copula function. In partial step-stress loading, the unit is tested at usual stress for some time, and then the stress is accelerated. This helps in preventing over-stressing of the test specimens. Failure occurs when the performance characteristic crosses the critical value the first time. Under the constraint of total experimental cost, the optimal test duration and the optimal number of inspections at each intermediate stress level are obtained using variance optimality criterion.

This study provides the explicit computation of the ruin probability of a Le￠vy process on finite time horizon in Theorem 1 with the help of a fluctuation identity. This paper also gives the numerical results of the ruin probability in Variance Gamma(VG) and Normal Inverse Gaussian(NIG) models as illustrations. Besides, the paths of VG and NIG processes are simulated using the same parameter values as in Madan et al. (1998).

Purpose: This paper is concerned with optimally designing accelerated degradation test (ADT) plans based on a gamma process for the degradation model. Methods: By minimizing the asymptotic variance of the MLE of the q-th quantile of the lifetime distribution at the use condition, the test stress levels and the proportion of test units allocated to each stress level are optimally determined. Results: The optimal plans of ADT are developed for various combination of parameters. In addition, a method for determining the sample size is developed, and sensitivity analysis procedures are illustrated with an example. Conclusion: It is important to optimally design ADT based on a gamma process under the condition that a degradation process should be always nonnegative and strictly increasing over time.

옵션의 가격을 결정하는 문제에서 블랙-숄즈 모형이 가지는 단점을 보완하기 위해 블랙-숄즈 가격을 선도항으로 하여 보정항을 구하는 근사적 옵션가격의 결정방법을 고려하였다. 이러한 근사적 가격결정 방법들은 비교적 적은 자료를 가지고 간단한 계산으로 다양한 형태의 위험중립 확률분포에 의한 옵션가격을 계산할 수 있다. 이 논문에서는 일반적으로 관찰되는 시장상황을 모사한 모의실험과 실제 시장에서 관측되는 KOSPI200 옵션가격 자료를 통해 몇 가지 근사방법들의 적합성과를 비교, 평가하였다. 헤르미트 다항식 계열의 Edgeworth 확장과 A-type Gram-Charlier, C-type Gram-Charlier 방법, NIG 분포를 이용하는 방법, 비선형 회귀를 이용한 점근적 근사방법이 고려되었다. 모의실험에서는 순수 점프 레비 확률과정 가운데 옵션가격이 닫힌 해의 형태로 존재하는 Variance gamma 과정을 가정하여 자료를 생성하였다. 모의실험과 실제 자료분석의 결과, 분포함수를 먼저 근사하여 가격을 계산하는 것보다 근사적 가격식을 유도하여 직접 가격을 근사하는 방법들의 성능이 좀 더 좋았으며, 그 가운데 비선형 회귀를 이용한 점근적 근사방법이 상대적으로 좋은 성능을 보였다.

Equity-linked securities (ELS) provide their customers with the return linked to the underlying equity (or equities). Equity-linked products in Korea have recently gained popularity due to relatively low interest rates. This paper discusses an equity-linked security whose principal is not guaranteed. The payoff of the ELS depends on the returns of two underlying assets. This paper presents numerical prices of the proposed product by using Monte-Carlo simulation method. It assumes that the log-returns of two stocks follow either Brownian motion or variance gamma process. Finally, the comparison of the two approaches is discussed.

Purpose: Skewness is an indicator used to measure the asymmetry of data distribution. In the past, product quality was judged only by mean and variance, but in modern management and manufacturing environments, various factors and volatility must be considered. Therefore, skewness helps accurately understand the shape of data distribution and identify outliers or problems, and skewness can be utilized from this new perspective. Therefore, we would like to propose a statistical quality control method using skewness. Methods: In order to generate data with the same mean and variance but different skewness, data was generated using normal distribution and gamma distribution. Using Minitab 18, we created 20 sets of 1,000 random data of normal distribution and gamma distribution. Using this data, it was proven that the process state can be sensitively identified by using skewness. Results: As a result of the analysis of this study, if the skewness is within ± 0.2, there is no difference in judgment from management based on the probability of errors that can be made in the management state as discussed in quality control. However, if the skewness exceeds ±0.2, the control chart considering only the standard deviation determines that it is in control, but it can be seen that the data is out of control. Conclusion: By using skewness in process management, the ability to evaluate data quality is improved and the ability to detect abnormal signals is excellent. By using this, process improvement and process non-sub-stitutability issues can be quickly identified and improved.

The stability of machine tool systems is analyzed by considering the machining process as a stochastic process without decomposing into machine tool structural dynamics and cutting processes. In doing so the time series analysis technique developed by Wu and Pandit is applied systematically to the relative vibration between cutting tool and work- piece measured under actual working conditions. Various characteristic properties derived from the fitted ARMA(Autoregressive Moving Average) Models and those from raw data directly are investigated in relation with the system stability. Both damping ratio and absolute value of the characteristic roots of the AR part of the most significant dynamic mode are preferred as stability indicating factors to the other pro-perties such as theoretical variance .gamma. (o) or absolute power of the most dominant dynamic mode. Maximum aplitude during a certain interval and variance estimated from raw data are shown to be very sensi- tive to the type of the signal and the location of measurement point although they can be obtained rather easily. The relative vibration signal is also analyzed by FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) Analyzer for the purpose of comparison with the spectrums derived from the fitted ARMA models.

Accurate localization of radioactive materials is crucial in homeland security and radiological emergencies. Coded-aperture gamma camera is an interesting solution for such applications and can be developed into portable real-time imaging devices. However, traditional reconstruction methods cannot effectively deal with signal-independent noise, thereby hindering low-noise real-time imaging. In this study, a novel reconstruction method with excellent noise-suppression capability based on a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) is proposed. A coded-aperture gamma camera based on pixel detector and coded-aperture mask was constructed, and the process of radioactive source imaging was simulated. Results showed that the MLP method performs better in noise suppression than the traditional correlation analysis method. When the Co-57 source with an activity of 1 MBq was at 289 different positions within the field of view which correspond to 289 different pixels in the reconstructed image, the average contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) obtained by the MLP method was 21.82, whereas that obtained by the correlation analysis method was 5.85. The variance in CNR of the MLP method is larger than that of correlation analysis, which means the MLP method has some instability in certain conditions.
