Book Point Processes with a Generalized Order Statistic Property

Download or read book Point Processes with a Generalized Order Statistic Property written by Birgit Debrabant and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2008 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mixed Poisson processes are a well known class of point processes derived from (stationary) Poisson processes. In particular they cover cases where the intensity of a Poisson process is unknown but can be assumed to follow a known probability distribution. This situation is common e. g. in insurance mathematics where for instance the number of accident claims in which an individual is involved and which is evolving over some time can in principal be well described by a Poisson process with an individual, yet normally unknown intensity corresponding to the individual's accident proneness. Modelling this intensity as a random variable naturally leads to a mixed model. Usually, an insurance company will have a good estimate of the associated mixing distribution due to its large portfolio of policies.

Book An Introduction to the Theory of Point Processes

Download or read book An Introduction to the Theory of Point Processes written by Daryl J. Daley and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stochastic point processes are sets of randomly located points in time, on the plane or in some general space. This book provides a general introduction to the theory, starting with simple examples and an historical overview, and proceeding to the general theory. It thoroughly covers recent work in a broad historical perspective in an attempt to provide a wider audience with insights into recent theoretical developments. It contains numerous examples and exercises. This book aims to bridge the gap between informal treatments concerned with applications and highly abstract theoretical treatments.

Download or read book Point Processes written by D.R. Cox and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-19 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been much recent research on the theory of point processes, i.e., on random systems consisting of point events occurring in space or time. Applications range from emissions from a radioactive source, occurrences of accidents or machine breakdowns, or of electrical impluses along nerve fibres, to repetitive point events in an individual's medical or social history. Sometimes the point events occur in space rather than time and the application here raneg from statistical physics to geography. The object of this book is to develop the applied mathemathics of point processes at a level which will make the ideas accessible both to the research worker and the postgraduate student in probability and statistics and also to the mathemathically inclined individual in another field interested in using ideas and results. A thorough knowledge of the key notions of elementary probability theory is required to understand the book, but specialised "pure mathematical" coniderations have been avoided.

Book Stochastic Orders in Reliability and Risk

Download or read book Stochastic Orders in Reliability and Risk written by Haijun Li and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-22 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stochastic Orders in Reliability and Risk Management is composed of 19 contributions on the theory of stochastic orders, stochastic comparison of order statistics, stochastic orders in reliability and risk analysis, and applications. These review/exploratory chapters present recent and current research on stochastic orders reported at the International Workshop on Stochastic Orders in Reliability and Risk Management, or SORR2011, which took place in the City Hotel, Xiamen, China, from June 27 to June 29, 2011. The conference’s talks and invited contributions also represent the celebration of Professor Moshe Shaked, who has made comprehensive, fundamental contributions to the theory of stochastic orders and its applications in reliability, queueing modeling, operations research, economics and risk analysis. This volume is in honor of Professor Moshe Shaked. The work presented in this volume represents active research on stochastic orders and multivariate dependence, and exemplifies close collaborations between scholars working in different fields. The Xiamen Workshop and this volume seek to revive the community workshop tradition on stochastic orders and dependence and strengthen research collaboration, while honoring the work of a distinguished scholar.

Book Mixed Poisson Processes

Download or read book Mixed Poisson Processes written by J Grandell and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-10-28 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To date, Mixed Poisson processes have been studied by scientists primarily interested in either insurance mathematics or point processes. Work in one area has often been carried out without knowledge of the other area. Mixed Poisson Processes is the first book to combine and concentrate on these two themes, and to distinguish between the notions of distributions and processes. The first part of the text gives special emphasis to the estimation of the underlying intensity, thinning, infinite divisibility, and reliability properties. The second part is, to a greater extent, based on Lundberg's thesis.

Book An Introduction to the Theory of Point Processes

Download or read book An Introduction to the Theory of Point Processes written by D.J. Daley and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-11-14 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Point processes and random measures find wide applicability in telecommunications, earthquakes, image analysis, spatial point patterns, and stereology, to name but a few areas. The authors have made a major reshaping of their work in their first edition of 1988 and now present their Introduction to the Theory of Point Processes in two volumes with sub-titles Elementary Theory and Models and General Theory and Structure. Volume One contains the introductory chapters from the first edition, together with an informal treatment of some of the later material intended to make it more accessible to readers primarily interested in models and applications. The main new material in this volume relates to marked point processes and to processes evolving in time, where the conditional intensity methodology provides a basis for model building, inference, and prediction. There are abundant examples whose purpose is both didactic and to illustrate further applications of the ideas and models that are the main substance of the text.

Book Handbook of Spatial Point Pattern Analysis in Ecology

Download or read book Handbook of Spatial Point Pattern Analysis in Ecology written by Thorsten Wiegand and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-12-20 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understand How to Analyze and Interpret Information in Ecological Point Patterns Although numerous statistical methods for analyzing spatial point patterns have been available for several decades, they haven’t been extensively applied in an ecological context. Addressing this gap, Handbook of Spatial Point-Pattern Analysis in Ecology shows how the techniques of point-pattern analysis are useful for tackling ecological problems. Within an ecological framework, the book guides readers through a variety of methods for different data types and aids in the interpretation of the results obtained by point-pattern analysis. Ideal for empirical ecologists who want to avoid advanced theoretical literature, the book covers statistical techniques for analyzing and interpreting the information contained in ecological patterns. It presents methods used to extract information hidden in spatial point-pattern data that may point to the underlying processes. The authors focus on point processes and null models that have proven their immediate utility for broad ecological applications, such as cluster processes. Along with the techniques, the handbook provides a comprehensive selection of real-world examples. Most of the examples are analyzed using Programita, a continuously updated software package based on the authors’ many years of teaching and collaborative research in ecological point-pattern analysis. Programita is tailored to meet the needs of real-world applications in ecology. The software and a manual are available online.
