Yule Process Sample Path Asymptotics
This paper presents two results on sample paths for the Yule process: one fluid limit theorem and one sample path large deviation result. The main interest is to understand the way large deviation occurs in the case of non-homogeneous processes. There are indeed two new phenomena. First there is no “typical” speed of large deviation. Second, the large deviation event is concentrated on a finite...
متن کاملA Delayed Yule Process
In now classic work, David Kendall (1966) recognized that the Yule process and Poisson process could be related by a (random) time change. Furthermore, he showed that the Yule population size rescaled by its mean has an almost sure exponentially distributed limit as t → ∞. In this note we introduce a class of coupled delayed continuous time Yule processes parameterized by 0 < α ≤ 1 and find a r...
متن کاملLarge Sample Asymptotics for the Two Parameter Poisson Dirichlet Process
Abstract: This paper explores large sample properties of the two parameter (α, θ) Poisson-Dirichlet Process in two contexts. In a Bayesian context of estimating an unknown probability measure, viewing this process as a natural extension of the Dirichlet process, we explore the consistency and weak convergence of the the two parameter Poisson Dirichlet posterior process. We also establish the we...
متن کاملDisintegration, Yule Process and Random Graphs
In this paper we demonstrate that the disintegration process of radioactive atoms in the discrete time model has a natural interpretation in the theory of random graphs. Moreover, we reduce some problems in this area to disintegration processes with anomalies. For instance , we derive exact closed formull for the probabilities and the moments of the number of isolated vertices in Bernoulli grap...
متن کاملDiscrete Small Sample Asymptotics
(ABSTRACT) Random variables defined on the natural numbers may often be approximated by Poisson variables. Just as normal approximations may be improved by saddlepoint methods, Pois-son approximations may be substantially improved by tilting, expansion, and other related methods. This work will develop and examine the use of these methods, as well as present examples where such methods may be n...
