چکیده
Multivariate Poisson random variables subject to linear integer constraints arise in several application areas, such as queuing and biomolecular networks. This note shows how to compute conditional statistics in this context, by employing Wilf-Zeilberger Theory and associated algorithms. A symbolic computation package has been developed and is made freely available. A discussion of motivating biomolecular problems is also provided.

A Symbolic Computational Approach to a Problem Involving Multivariate Poisson Distributions

متن کاملExact inference and learning for cumulative distribution functions on loopy graphs
Abstract Many problem domains including climatology and epidemiology require models that can capture both heavy-tailed statistics and local dependencies. Specifying such distributions using graphical models for probability density functions (PDFs) generally lead to intractable inference and learning. Cumulative distribution networks (CDNs) provide a means to tractably specify multivariate heavy...
متن کاملSpatial count models on the number of unhealthy days in Tehran
Spatial count data is usually found in most sciences such as environmental science, meteorology, geology and medicine. Spatial generalized linear models based on poisson (poisson-lognormal spatial model) and binomial (binomial-logitnormal spatial model) distributions are often used to analyze discrete count data in which spatial correlation is observed. The likelihood function of these models i...
متن کاملA Queuing Model for Stochastic Location-inventory Problem with Waiting Cost Considerations
This paper presents a three-level supply chain model which includes single supplier, several distribution centers and sets of retailers. For this purpose, by adopting the queuing approach, a mixed nonlinear integer programming model is formulated. The proposed model follows minimizing the total cost of the system by determining: 1) the number and location of distribution centers between candida...
متن کاملThe Asymptotic Expansion Method via Symbolic Computation
The origin of symbolic manipulation derives from the sheer magnitude of the work involved in the building of perturbation theories, which made inevitable that scientific community became interested in the possibility of constructing those theories with the help of computers. Perturbation theories for differential equations containing a small parameter are quite old. The small perturbation theor...
