COVID-19 Pandemic still affecting all countries. South Asian economies and that particularly India is no exception. Because of this “uncertainty shock”, India’s GDP has contracted by 3.1percent in the last quarter of 2020. The present empirical work covers broadly the “asymmetric spillover and related noisy shocks” surrounded with trade (export) volatility about LMI nations in “two phases” i.e. in terms of considering the During pandemic phase (DC) the period from April 2019 till June 2020 and Pre-pandemic phase (PC) from April 2013 till November 2020. A comparative trade volatility asymmetries analysis were applied using a nonlinear volatility function i.e. exponential weighted moving average (EWMA), and identification of noisy behaviour after the initial post-recovery for empirical evidence. The empirical findings discovered that there were “extended” non-smooth and noisy “shock propagation” post initial recovery across two phases by the use of VAR and VECM outcomes. Bangladesh and Pakistan were stronger “Noisy shock contributors” while Nepal and Sri Lanka were turned out to be the strongest “Noisy shock receivers”. This “noisy” behaviour implies “uncertainty” and chaos on the international trade front resulting in higherthan expected volatility in trade figures and in-built destabilized momentum in the impulses. The results also relate to the possible opportunities of intra-regional trade convergence as a policy imperative.

Abstract The strapdown inertial navigation system (SINS) with integrated Doppler velocity log (DVL) is widely utilised in underwater navigation. In the complex underwater environment, however, the DVL information may be corrupted, and as a result the accuracy of the Kalman filter in the SINS/DVL integrated system degrades. To solve this, an adaptive Kalman filter (AKF) with measurement noise estimator to provide noise statistical characteristics is generally applied. However, existing methods like moving windows (MW) and exponential weighted moving average (EWMA) cannot adapt to a dynamic environment, which results in unsatisfactory noise estimation performance. Moreover, the forgetting factor has to be determined empirically. Therefore, this paper proposes an improved EWMA (IEWMA) method with adaptive forgetting factor for measurement noise estimation. First, the model for a SINS/DVL integrated system is established, then the MW and EWMA based measurement noise estimators are illustrated. Subsequently, the proposed IEWMA method which is adaptive to the various environments without experience is introduced. Finally, simulation and vehicle tests are conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Results show that the proposed method outperforms the MW and EWMA methods in terms of measurement noise estimation and navigation accuracy.

Abstract Background Early detection of outbreaks is very important for surveillance systems. Due to the importance of the subject and lack of similar studies in Iran, the aim of this study was to determine the performance of the Wavelet-Based Outbreak detection method)WOD(in detecting outbreaks and to compare its performance with Poisson regression-based model and Exponential weighted moving average (EWMA) using data of simulated pertussis outbreaks in Iran. Methods The data on suspected cases of pertussis from 25th February 2012 to 23rd March 2018 in Iran was used. The performance of the WOD (Daubechies 10 and Haar wavelets), Poisson regression-based method, and EWMA Compared in terms of timeliness and detection of outbreak days using the simulation of different outbreaks (literature-based and researcher-made outbreaks). The sensitivity, specificity, false alarm and false negative rate, positive and negative likelihood ratios, under ROC areas and median timeliness were used to assess the performance of the methods. Results In a literature-based outbreak simulation, the highest and lowest sensitivity, false negative in the detection of injected outbreaks were seen in Daubechies 10 (db10), with sensitivity 0.59 (0.56-0.62), and Haar wavelets with 0.57 (0.54-0.60). In the researcher-made outbreaks, the EWMA (K=0.5) with sensitivity 0.92 (0.90-0.94) had the best performance. About timeliness, the WOD methods showed the best performance in the early warning of the outbreak in both simulation approaches. Conclusions Performance of the WOD in the early alarming outbreaks was appropriate. However, it's better as the method was used along with other methods in public health surveillance systems.

The exponential weighted moving average (EWMA) statistic is utilized the past information along with the present to enhance the efficiency of the estimators of the population parameters. In this study, the EWMA statistic is used to estimate the population mean with auxiliary information. The memory type ratio and product estimators are proposed under stratified sampling (StS). Mean square errors (MSE) expressions and relative efficiencies of the proposed estimators are derived. An extensive simulation study is conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed estimators. An empirical study is presented based on real-life data that supports the findings of the simulation study.

India, a country with impressive growth prospects has stunned many developed nations. As far as performance of equity market concern, last 25 years among more than $1-trillion markets in the world, Indian equity market was best performer outpacing some of bigwigs such as US, Germany and Hong Kong. Last 25 years return in local money of SENSEX was so high in comparisons to others. Banking sectors have specific and an important role in the economic development of a India. With the reconstitution of BSE Sensex in last few years, the weightage of the Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI) sector. In the BSE 30 will touch its all-time high level to 40.1% which will be more than the combined weights of technology as consumer and auto. The weightage of financials in the Sensex has more than doubled from financial year 2009. In the long duration index weightage affect portfolio in major funds. The main objective of this research paper is to show the volatility patterns of Bombay Stock Exchange SENSEX and BSE BANKEX Index using Exponential weighted moving average (EWMA) model.

Financial risk model evaluation or backtesting is a key part of the internal model’s approach to market risk management as laid out by the Basle Committee on Banking Supervision. Using daily exchange rate from January 2006-February 2008, will be compared measuring volatility between EWMA (Exponential Weighted Moving Average) and GARCH (Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heterocedasticity). The results show that GARCH methods have considerably better power properties in measuring the volatility than the EWMA methods. However, the number of exceptions from the GARCH model, although much less than the EWMA model but the numbers were still above 5% and 1% (confidence level of 95% and 99%). The arguments for explained this finding is a pressure from stakeholders or the existence of an economic events that result in changes in exposure due to the different policies. As a result, the VaR model would be inaccurate to reality.Keywords: volatility, backtesting, EWMA, and GARCH

Automatic meter reading (AMR) provides real-time consumption data, enabling to collect a huge amount of information about daily, even hourly, consumptions. It is then easy to assess lost volumes on the network, using supplied volumes information. However, because of the multiple components of water losses, the metering and calculation inaccuracies, the occurrence of new (detectable) leaks is hard to detect. Therefore this paper aims at proposing a user-friendly statistical tool that helps to quickly and reliably detect new leakage occurrence. The use of process control chart (like exponential weighted moving average) enables us to detect changes in the water loss time series, in particular, a new leak occurrence.
