Managing Fusarium Head Blight in Winter Barley With Cultivar Resistance and Fungicide
PLANT DISEASE, 103(8), 1858–1864.
author keywords: cereals and grains; chemical; disease management; field crops; fungi
MeSH headings : Disease Resistance / genetics; Fungicides, Industrial / pharmacology; Fusarium / drug effects; Fusarium / physiology; Hordeum / classification; Hordeum / genetics; Hordeum / microbiology; North Carolina; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Plant Diseases / prevention & control; Virginia

Gibbs posterior inference on value-at-risk
SCANDINAVIAN ACTUARIAL JOURNAL, (7), 548–557.
author keywords: Direct posterior; discrepancy function; M-estimation; model misspecification; risk capital; robust estimation
TL;DR:
This paper links data and VaR directly via what is called a discrepancy function, and this leads naturally to a Gibbs posterior distribution for VaR that does not suffer from the aforementioned biases and inefficiencies.
