Computer Simulation of L evy Stable Variables and Processes
The aim of this paper is to demonstrate how the appropriate numerical statistical and computer techniques can be successfully applied to the modeling of some physical systems We propose to use a fast and accurate method of computer generation of L evy stable random variates
متن کاملBootstrap Tail Thickness Estimation for Symmetric Alpha-Stable Random Variables
A new theorem shows that a bootstrap algorithm can estimate the impulsivity or tail thickness of symmetric a-stable (SαS) signals. SαS bell curves include the Gaussian bell curve as a special but non-impulsive case. Signals grow more impulsive as the bell curve’s tail thickness increases or as the tail-thickness parameter α falls from 2 toward 0. The thin-tailed Gaussian bell curve has α = 2. T...
متن کاملScalar Quantization of Alpha Stable Distributed Random Variables
E cient stochastic data processing preassumes proper modeling of the statistics of the data source This paper addresses the issues that arise when the data to be pro cessed exhibits statistical properties which depart signi cantly from those implied under the Gaussianity assump tion This type of data has been found to be encountered in image speech and other compression applications For the cas...
متن کاملOne-Alpha Descriptor
Recently, one-two descriptor has been defined and it has been shown that it is a good predictor of the heat capacity at P constant (CP) and of the total surface area (TSA). In this paper, we analyze its generalizations by replacing the value 2 by arbitrary positive value . We show that these analyses may be on interest, because even good predictions of CP and TSA can be slightly improved. Furth...
متن کاملCan one see the shape of a network?
Traditionally, network analysis is based on local properties of vertices, like their degree or clustering, and their statistical behavior across the network in question. This paper develops an approach which is different in two respects. We investigate edge-based properties, and we define global characteristics of networks directly. The latter will provide our affirmative answer to the question...
