Monte Carlo Matlab

Dieses Buch führt in die grundlegenden Begriffe und Werkzeuge der Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung ein. Zentrale Begriffe und Methoden der angewandten mathematischen Statistik werden beschrieben, und weitergehende statistische Verfahren wie die Varianz- und Regressionsanalyse oder nichtparametrische Verfahren werden diskutiert. Moderne Techniken wie die Monte-Carlo-Methode und wichtige Anwendungsgebiete aus dem ingenieurwissenschaftlichen Bereich werden vorgestellt.

The use of mathematical models and numerical techniques is a practice employed by a growing number of applied mathematicians working on applications in finance. Reflecting this development, Numerical Methods in Finance and Economics: A MATLAB?-Based Introduction, Second Edition bridges the gap between financial theory and computational practice while showing readers how to utilize MATLAB?–the powerful numerical computing environment–for financial applications. The author provides an essential foundation in finance and numerical analysis in addition to background material for students from both engineering and economics perspectives. A wide range of topics is covered, including standard numerical analysis methods, Monte Carlo methods to simulate systems affected by significant uncertainty, and optimization methods to find an optimal set of decisions.

Financial Risk Forecasting is a complete introduction to practical quantitative risk management, with a focus on market risk.

This book gives a good introduction to evolutionary computation for those who are first entering the field and are looking for insight into the underlying mechanisms behind them. This book also outlines some ideas on when genetic algorithms and genetic programming should be used, and this is useful since a newcomer to the field may be tempted to view a genetic algorithm as merely a fancy Monte Carlo simulation.
