Failure Distribution of Repairable Units Approximation through Markov Chains

Failure distributions of components and assemblies are commonly approximated by analytical functions, e.g. by exponential or Weibull distributions. The advantages of this approach are its simplicity and the staightforwardness of the calculations. Another possibility is to describe failure distributions by means of Markov or semiMarkov chains, however several constraints are thereby introduced. ...

Approximation of word counts in Markov chains

In this talk, we give an overview about the diierent approximation results existing on the statistical distribution of word counts in a Markov chain. Results concerning the number of overlapping occurrences, the number of non-overlapping occurrences (renewals) and the declumped count will be presented. Counts of single words but also multiple words and word families are considered. We will see ...

Stochastic Block-Monotonicity in the Approximation of the Stationary Distribution of Infinite Markov Chains

Empirical Bayes Estimation in Nonstationary Markov chains

Estimation procedures for nonstationary Markov chains appear to be relatively sparse. This work introduces empirical  Bayes estimators  for the transition probability  matrix of a finite nonstationary  Markov chain. The data are assumed to be of  a panel study type in which each data set consists of a sequence of observations on N>=2 independent and identically dis...
