Asymptotic distributions of Neumann problem for Sturm-Liouville equation
In this paper we apply the Homotopy perturbation method to derive the higher-order asymptotic distribution of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions associated with the linear real second order equation of Sturm-liouville type on $[0,pi]$ with Neumann conditions $(y'(0)=y'(pi)=0)$ where $q$ is a real-valued Sign-indefinite number of $C^{1}[0,pi]$ and $lambda$ is a real parameter.
متن کاملAsymptotic normality of posterior distributions for generalized linear mixed models
Generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) are widely used in the analysis of non Gaussian repeated measurements such as clustered proportion and count data. The most commonly used approach for inference in these models is based on the Bayesian methods and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling. However, the validity of Bayesian inferences can be seriously affected by the assumed model for the r...
متن کاملAsymptotic Expansion for Inverse Moments of Binomial and Poisson Distributions
An asymptotic expansion for inverse moments of positive binomial and Poisson distributions is derived. The expansion coefficients of the asymptotic series are given by the positive central moments of the distribution. Compared to previous results, a single expansion formula covers all (also non-integer) inverse moments. In addition, the approach can be generalized to other positive distributions.
متن کاملAsymptotic Normality of Posterior Distributions in High Dimensional Linear Models
We study consistency and asymptotic normality of posterior distributions of the regression coeecient in a linear model when the dimension of the parameter grows with the sample size. Under certain growth restrictions on the dimension (depending on the design matrix), we show that the posterior distributions concentrate in neighbourhoods of the true parameter and can be approximated by an approp...
متن کاملAsymptotic approximations to posterior distributions via conditional moment equations
We consider asymptotic approximations to joint posterior distributions in situations where the full conditional distributions referred to in Gibbs sampling are asymptotically normal. Our development focuses on problems where data augmentation facilitates simpler calculations, but results hold more generally. Asymptotic mean vectors are obtained as simultaneous solutions to fixed point equations...
