متن کاملLecture 3: Continuous times Markov Chains. Poisson Process. Birth and Death Process. 1 Continuous Time Markov Chains
In this lecture we will discuss Markov Chains in continuous time. Continuous time Markov Chains are used to represent population growth, epidemics, queueing models, reliability of mechanical systems, etc. In Continuous time Markov Process, the time is perturbed by exponentially distributed holding times in each state while the succession of states visited still follows a discrete time Markov ch...
متن کاملReversible jump, birth-and-death and more general continuous time Markov chain Monte Carlo samplers
Reversible jump methods are the most commonly used Markov chain Monte Carlo tool for exploring variable dimension statistical models. Recently, however, an alternative approach based on birth-and-death processes has been proposed by Stephens for mixtures of distributions.We show that the birth-and-death setting can be generalized to include other types of continuous time jumps like split-and-co...
متن کاملOptimal Consumption and Insurance: A Continuous-Time Markov Chain Approach
Personal financial decision making plays an important role in modern finance. Decision problems about consumption and insurance are modelled in a continuous-time multi-state Markovian framework. The optimal solution is derived and studied. The model, the problem, and its solution are exemplified by two special cases: In one model the individual takes optimal positions against the risk of dying;...
متن کاملOvershoot Functionals for Almost Semi-continuous Processes Defined on a Markov Chain
The distribution of extrema and overjump functionals for the semi-continuous processes (processes that intersect positive or negative level continuously) on a Markov chain were considered by many authors( for instance, see [1] [3]). In the paper [4] the distribution of extrema for almost semi-continuous processes were treated (the processes that intersect positive or negative level by exponenti...
