statistical inference based on k-records
in this paper, an extension of record models, well known as k-records, is considered. bayesian estimation as well as prediction based on k-records are presented when the underlying distribution is assumed to have a general form. the proposed procedure is applied to the exponential, weibull and pareto models in one parameter case. also, the two-parameter exponential distribution, when both param...
متن کاملStatistical Inference with Unnormalized Discrete Models and Localized Homogeneous Divergences
In this paper, we focus on parameters estimation of probabilistic models in discrete space. A naive calculation of the normalization constant of the probabilistic model on discrete space is often infeasible and statistical inference based on such probabilistic models has difficulty. In this paper, we propose a novel estimator for probabilistic models on discrete space, which is derived from an ...
متن کاملA family of statistical symmetric divergences based on Jensen's inequality
We introduce a novel parametric family of symmetric information-theoretic distances based on Jensen’s inequality for a convex functional generator. In particular, this family unifies the celebrated Jeffreys divergence with the Jensen-Shannon divergence when the Shannon entropy generator is chosen. We then design a generic algorithm to compute the unique centroid defined as the minimum average d...
متن کاملOn Statistical Inference Based on Record Values
We develop methodology for conducting inference based on record values and record times derived from a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables. The advantage of using information about record times as well as record values is stressed. This point is a subtle one, since if the sampling distribution F is continuous then there is no information at all about F in the re...
متن کاملStatistical Inference Based on Upper Record Values
The goal of this thesis is to examine methods of statistical inference based on upper record values. This includes estimation of parameters based on samples of record values and prediction of future record values. We first define and discuss record times and record values and their distributions. Then we propose an efficient algorithm to generate random samples of record values. The algorithm, ...
