We provide an exact simulation algorithm that produces variables from truncated Gaussian distributions on via a perfect sampling scheme, based on stochastic ordering and slice sampling, since accept–reject algorithms like those of Geweke (1991) or Robert (1994) are difficult to extend to higher dimensions.

Perfect simulation of positive Gaussian distributionsy

We provide an exact simulation algorithm that produces variables from truncated Gaussian distributions on (R+)p via a perfect sampling scheme, based on stochastic ordering and slice sampling, since accept–reject algorithms like those of Geweke (1991) or Robert (1994) are difficult to extend to higher dimensions.

Bayesian Estimation of Shift Point in Shape Parameter of Inverse Gaussian Distribution Under Different Loss Functions

In this paper, a Bayesian approach is proposed for shift point detection in an inverse Gaussian distribution. In this study, the mean parameter of inverse Gaussian distribution is assumed to be constant and shift points in shape parameter is considered. First the posterior distribution of shape parameter is obtained. Then the Bayes estimators are derived under a class of priors and using variou...

Finite Sample Properties of Quantile Interrupted Time Series Analysis: A Simulation Study

Interrupted Time Series (ITS) analysis represents a powerful quasi-experime-ntal design in which a discontinuity is enforced at a specific intervention point in a time series, and separate regression functions are fitted before and after the intervention point. Segmented linear/quantile regression can be used in ITS designs to isolate intervention effects by estimating the sudden/level change (...

Estimation of Value at Risk (VaR) Based On Lévy-GARCH Models: Evidence from Tehran Stock Exchange

This paper aims to estimate the Value-at-Risk (VaR) using GARCH type models with improved return distribution. Value at Risk (VaR) is an essential benchmark for measuring the risk of financial markets quantitatively. The parametric method, historical simulation, and Monte Carlo simulation have been proposed in several financial mathematics and engineering studies to calculate VaR, that each of ...

Simulation of Positive Normal Variables Using Several Proposal Distributions

In this paper, we propose a new methodology to generate random variables distributed according to a Gaussian with positive support. We narrow the study to the univariate case. The method consists in an accept-reject algorithm in which a previous step is added consisting in choosing among several proposal distributions the one which gives the highest average probability of acceptance for given p...
