Dpreview tests the A7rII and RX100m4 Eye AF: “has far more accuracy than a

called "correlation", and the kurtusis by "vol-of-vol". SABR is a little
simpler than Heston in terms of presentation, and has an analytical solution
for the vanilla price, while Heston has a FFT calculation for the vanilla
price. So both of them can be calibrated to vanillas faster than Monte Carlo.
However, none of them can easily calibrate to the term structure of vol

发帖数: 5138 | 32 In my opinion, the SAS is more official than the R in industry and buisness
and all most all applied research fields, since all the methods in the SAS
are accepted by the publics.
However, in the statistical methodological research areas, the R is more
welcomed than the SAS, since many statisticians want to develop their new
methodology, in which large dataset is neither necessary nor commonly met.
Due to this reason, many methods in the R might be temporarily existed.
They may be someday amende |
