The Generation of Binomial Random
The transformed rejection method, a combination of inversion and rejection, which can be applied to various continuous distributions, is well suited to generate binomial random variates as well. The resulting algorithms are simple and fast, and need only a short setup. Among the many possible variants two algorithms are described and tested: BTRS a short but nevertheless fast rejection algorith...
متن کاملComputer generation of negative binomial variates by envelope rejection
This paper proposes an envelope rejection method for computer sampling from the negative binomial distribution, with index parameter α and probability parameter p, based on a simple probability distribution inequality. Comparative timings with existing methods of generating NB variates show that the proposed method is comparable or faster when α is not too large (α < 11), and it is fastest for ...
متن کاملEfficient Generation of PH-Distributed Random Variates
Phase-type (PH) distributions are being used to model a wide range of phenomena in performance and dependability evaluation. The resulting models may be employed in analytical as well as in simulationdriven approaches. Simulations require the efficient generation of random variates from PH distributions. PH distributions have different representations and different associated computational cost...
متن کاملRandom Generation Using Binomial Approximations
Several generic methods have been proposed for this purpose, such as the “recursive method” [NW78, FZC94], Boltzmann samplers [DFLS04, FFP07, BFKV07] and Markov chain techniques (see [PW96] for instance). Since Markov chain techniques usually lead to less efficient algorithms, they are only used when other methods fail or when the generating time is not an issue; we will not discuss them furthe...
متن کاملSimulating theta random variates
We develop an exact simple random variate generator for the theta distribution, which occurs as the limit distribution of the height of nearly all models of uniform random trees. Even though the density is only known as an infinite sum of functions, our algorithm does not require any summation. The properties of the theta distribution with distribution function F(x)= ~ (1-2j2x2)e-J2x2 j~-(x3 oo...
