چکیده
A sequence of independent Bernoulli random variables with success probabilities a/(a+ b + k − 1), k = 1, 2, 3, . . . , is embedded in a marked Poisson process with intensity 1. Using this, conditional Poisson limits follow for counts of failure strings.

On Consecutive Records in Certain Bernoulli Sequences
In an infinite sequence of independent Bernoulli trials with success probabilities pk = a/(a + b + k − 1) for k = 1, 2, 3, . . . , let Nr be the number of r ≥ 2 consecutive successes. Expressions for the first two moments of Nr are derived. Asymptotics of the probability of no occurrence of r consecutive successes for large r are obtained. Using an embedding in a marked Poisson process, it is i...
متن کاملA Study of Counts of Bernoulli Strings via Conditional Poisson Processes
A sequence of random variables, each taking values 0 or 1, is called a Bernoulli sequence. We say that a string of length d occurs in a Bernoulli sequence if a success is followed by exactly (d − 1) failures before the next success. The counts of such d-strings are of interest, and in specific independent Bernoulli sequences are known to correspond to asymptotic d-cycle counts in random permuta...
متن کاملConnections between Bernoulli Strings and Random Permutations
A sequence of random variables, each taking only two values ”0” or ”1”, is called a Bernoulli sequence. Consider the counts of occurrences of strings of the form {11}, {101}, {1001}, . . . in Bernoulli sequences. Counts of such Bernoulli strings arise in the study of the cycle structure of random permutations, Bayesian nonparametrics, record values etc. The joint distribution of such counts is ...
متن کاملExact Statistical Inference for Some Parametric Nonhomogeneous Poisson Processes
Nonhomogeneous Poisson processes (NHPPs) are often used to model recurrent events, and there is thus a need to check model fit for such models. We study the problem of obtaining exact goodness-of-fit tests for certain parametric NHPPs, using a method based on Monte Carlo simulation conditional on sufficient statistics. A closely related way of obtaining exact confidence intervals in parametri...
متن کاملThe Stein and Chen-Stein methods for functionals of non-symmetric Bernoulli processes
Based on a new multiplication formula for discrete multiple stochastic integrals with respect to non-symmetric Bernoulli random walks, we extend the results of [14] on the Gaussian approximation of symmetric Rademacher sequences to the setting of possibly non-identically distributed independent Bernoulli sequences. We also provide Poisson approximation results for these sequences, by following ...
