THEMATIC MONTH 2016
Week 4: Extremes, Copulas and Actuarial Science

February 22 – 26, 2016
This week will be devoted to the following three themes: Extremes, Copulas and Actuarial Science, and to the interactions between them. 
The first two themes will be highlighted in both their theoretical developments (multivariate modeling, dependence, estimation and tests on 
copulas) and their applications, especially in relation to the third theme: the actuarial science.
The week will be divided into theoretical and practical lectures and 
mini courses on these three themes.
