Measure Concentration for Compound Poisson Distributions
Abstract: We give a simple development of the concentration properties of compound Poisson measures on the nonnegative integers. A new modification of the Herbst argument is applied to an appropriate modified logarithmic-Sobolev inequality to derive new concentration bounds. When the measure of interest does not have finite exponential moments, these bounds exhibit optimal polynomial decay. Sim...
متن کاملProof of logconcavity of some compound Poisson and related distributions
Compound Poisson distributions play important role in many applications (telecommunication, hydrology, insurance, etc.). In this paper, we prove that some of the compound Poisson distributions have the logconcavity property that makes them applicable in stochastic programming problems. The proofs are based on classical Turan types theorem and orthogonal polynomials. Acknowledgements: Please ins...
متن کاملA Gaussian Exponential Approximation to Some Compound Poisson Distributions
A three parameter Gaussian exponential approximation to some compound Poisson distributions is considered. It is constructed by specifying the reciprocal of the mean excess function as a linear affine function below some threshold and a positive constant above this threshold. As an analytical approximation to compound Poisson distributions, it is only feasible either for a limited range of the ...
متن کاملA Compound Class of Geometric and Lifetimes Distributions
A new lifetime class with decreasing failure rateis introduced by compounding truncated Geometric distribution and any proper continuous lifetime distribution. The properties of the proposed class are discussed, including a formal proof of its probability density function, distribution function and explicit algebraic formulae for its reliability and failure rate functions. A simple EM-type algo...
متن کاملHierarchical Compound Poisson Factorization
Non-negative matrix factorization models based on a hierarchical Gamma-Poisson structure capture user and item behavior effectively in extremely sparse data sets, making them the ideal choice for collaborative filtering applications. Hierarchical Poisson factorization (HPF) in particular has proved successful for scalable recommendation systems with extreme sparsity. HPF, however, suffers from ...
