Markov Chain Models — Rarity and Exponentiality

Markov Chain Models — Rarity and Exponentiality by Julian Keilson
English | PDF | 1979 | 199 Pages | ISBN : 0387904050 | 15.8 MB

in failure time distributions for systems modeled by finite chains. This introductory chapter attempts to provide an over­ view of the material and ideas covered. The presentation is loose and fragmentary, and should be read lightly initially. Subsequent perusal from time to time may help tie the mat­ erial together and provide a unity less readily obtainable otherwise. The detailed presentation begins in Chapter 1, and some readers may prefer to begin there directly. §O.l. Time-Reversibility and Spectral Representation. Continuous time chains may be discussed in terms of discrete time chains by a uniformizing procedure (§2.l) that simplifies and unifies the theory and enables results for discrete and continuous time to be discussed simultaneously.

MCMC from Scratch: A Practical Introduction to Markov Chain Monte Carlo

MCMC from Scratch: A Practical Introduction to Markov Chain Monte Carlo by Masanori Hanada, So Matsuura
English | PDF,EPUB | 2022 | 198 Pages | ISBN : 9811927146 | 29.3 MB

This textbook explains the fundamentals of Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) without assuming advanced knowledge of mathematics and programming. MCMC is a powerful technique that can be used to integrate complicated functions or to handle complicated probability distributions. MCMC is frequently used in diverse fields where statistical methods are important – e.g. Bayesian statistics, quantum physics, machine learning, computer science, computational biology, and mathematical economics. This book aims to equip readers with a sound understanding of MCMC and enable them to write simulation codes by themselves.

Automatic Nonuniform Random Variate Generation

Automatic Nonuniform Random Variate Generation by Wolfgang Hörmann, Josef Leydold, Gerhard Derflinger
English | PDF | 2004 | 439 Pages | ISBN : 3540406522 | 39.1 MB

Non-uniform random variate generation is an established research area in the intersection of mathematics, statistics and computer science. Although random variate generation with popular standard distributions have become part of every course on discrete event simulation and on Monte Carlo methods, the recent concept of universal (also called automatic or black-box) random variate generation can only be found dispersed in literature.

Bayesian Computation with R (Repost)

Bayesian Computation with R by Jim Albert
English | PDF | 2009 | 304 Pages | ISBN : 0387922970 | 3.2 MB

There has been a dramatic growth in the development and application of Bayesian inferential methods. Some of this growth is due to the availability of powerful simulation-based algorithms to summarize posterior distributions. There has been also a growing interest in the use of the system R for statistical analyses. R's open source nature, free availability, and large number of contributor packages have made R the software of choice for many statisticians in education and industry.

Estimating Output-Specific Efficiencies

Estimating Output-Specific Efficiencies by Dieter Gstach
English | PDF | 2002 | 210 Pages | ISBN : 1402004834 | 18.8 MB

The present book is the offspring of my Habilitation, which is the key to academic tenure in Austria. Legal requirements demand that a Ha­ bilitation be published and so only seeing it in print marks the real end of this biographical landmark project. From a scientific perspective I may hope to finally reach a broader audience with this book for a criti­ cal appraisal of the research done.

English | PDF | 2020 | 502 Pages | ISBN : 3030487873 | 14.88 MB

This 3rd edition provides an insight into the mathematical crossroads formed by functional analysis (the macroscopic approach), partial differential equations (the mesoscopic approach) and probability (the microscopic approach) via the mathematics needed for the hard parts of Markov processes. It brings these three fields of analysis together, providing a comprehensive study of Markov processes from a broad perspective. The material is carefully and effectively explained, resulting in a surprisingly readable account of the subject.
