Sampling from a couple of negatively correlated gamma variates

چکیده

We propose two algorithms for sampling from two gamma variates possessing a negative correlation. The case of positive correlation is easily solved, so we just mention it. The main problem is the lowest value of the correlation coefficient that can be reached. The starting point of both algorithms is generation from a bivariate density with uniform negatively correlated marginals. Actually the first method uses a degenerate bivariate density since it considers two uniforms related by a linear relationship. Then we resort essentially to the inverse transform method. For both algorithms we stress restrictions on the parameters and rigidities.

Sampling from a couple of positively correlated beta variates

We know that the marginals in a Dirichlet distribution are beta variates exhibiting a negative correlation. But we can construct two linear combinations of such marginals in such a way to obtain a positive correlation. We discuss the restrictions that are to be imposed on the parameters to accomplish such a result. In the case the sampling from the Dirichlet distribution is performed through a ...

Antithetic Coupling for Perfect Sampling

This paper reports some initial investigations of the use of antithetic variates in perfect sampling. A simple random walk example is presented to illustrate the key ingredients of antithetic coupling for perfect sampling as well as its potential benefit. A key step in implementing antithetic coupling is to generate random variates that are negatively associated, a stronger condition than negat...

Generating 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...

Sampling from a couple of positively correlated binomial variables

We know that the marginals in a multinomial distribution are binomial variates exhibiting a negative correlation. But we can construct two linear combinations of such marginals in such a way to obtain a positive correlation. We discuss the restrictions that are to be imposed on the parameters of the given marginals to accomplish such a result. Next we discuss the regression function, showing th...
