An Elegant Method for Generating Multivariate Poisson Random Variables
Generating multivariate Poisson data is essential in many applications. Current simulation methods suffer from limitations ranging from computational complexity to restrictions on the structure of the correlation matrix. We propose a computationally efficient and conceptually appealing method for generating multivariate Poisson data. The method is based on simulating multivariate Normal data an...
متن کاملThe Ziggurat Method for Generating Random Variables
We provide a new version of our ziggurat method for generating a random variable from a given decreasing density. It is faster and simpler than the original, and will produce, for example, normal or exponential variates at the rate of 15 million per second with a C version on a 400MHz PC. It uses two tables, integers ki and reals wi. Some 99% of the time, the required x is produced by: Generate...
متن کاملGenerating Antithetic Random Variates in Simulation of a Replacement Process by Rejection Method
When the times between renewals in a renewal process are not exponentially distributed, simulation can become a viable method of analysis. The renewal function is estimated through simulation for a renewal process simulation for a renewal process with gamma distributed renewal times and the shape parameter a > 1. Gamma random deviates will be generated by means of the so called Acceptance Rejec...
متن کاملOn the bounds in Poisson approximation for independent geometric distributed random variables
The main purpose of this note is to establish some bounds in Poisson approximation for row-wise arrays of independent geometric distributed random variables using the operator method. Some results related to random sums of independent geometric distributed random variables are also investigated.
متن کاملCompound Poisson Approximation For Dissociated Random Variables Via Stein's Method
In the present paper we consider compound Poisson approximation by Stein’s method for dissociated random variables. We present some applications to problems in system reliability. In particular, our examples have the structure of an incomplete U-statistics. We mainly apply techniques from Barbour and Utev, who gave new bounds for the solutions of the Stein equation in compound Poisson approxima...
