Lunedì 9 novembre 2009
ore 16,30 - aula 13
Bergamo, Via dei Caniana 2
ON BLACK SWANS AND THE TALEB QUADRANTS
PROF.. RON KENETT
Taleb suggested mapping randomness and decision making into a quadrant 
with two classes of randomness and decisions. Two
layers of randomness, very distinct qualitatively and quantitatively, 
are suggested by Taleb. A first layer is based on “forecastable
events”, implied in finite variance (and thus thin tail probability 
distributions) and a second based on “unforecastable events”,
defined by probability distributions of fat tails. The seminar will 
present the above concepts and ideas.

Il seminario è aperto a tutti gli interessati.
