Sequential Testing of Simple Hypotheses about Compound Poisson Processes
نویسندگان
چکیده
One of two simple hypotheses is correct about the unknown arrival rate and jump distribution of a compound Poisson process. We start observing the process, and the problem is to decide on the correct hypothesis as soon as possible and with the smallest probability of wrong decision. We find a Bayes-optimal sequential decision rule and describe completely how to calculate its parameters without any restrictions on the arrival rate and the jump distribution.

Sequential Testing Problems for Poisson Processes
We present the explicit solution of the Bayesian problem of sequential testing of two simple hypotheses about the intensity of an observed Poisson process. The method of proof consists of reducing the initial problem to a free-boundary differential-difference Stephan problem, and solving the latter by use of the principles of smooth and continuous fit. A rigorous proof of the optimality of the ...
متن کاملMultisource Bayesian sequential binary hypothesis testing problem
We consider the problem of testing two simple hypotheses about unknown local characteristics of several independent Brownian motions and compound Poisson processes. All of the processes may be observed simultaneously as long as desired before a final choice between hypotheses is made. The objective is to find a decision rule that identifies the correct hypothesis and strikes the optimal balance...

On some probability space (Ω,F,P), let (X)t≥0, 1 ≤ i ≤ d be d independent Brownian motions with constant drifts μ(i), 1 ≤ i ≤ d, and (T (j) n , Z n )n≥1, 1 ≤ j ≤ m be m independent compound Poisson processes independent of the Brownian motions (X)t≥0, 1 ≤ i ≤ d. For every 1 ≤ j ≤ m, (T (j) n )n≥1 are the arrival times, and (Z n )n≥1 are the marks on some measurable space (E, E), with arrival ra...

متن کاملThe Distributions of Stopping Times For Ordinary And Compound Poisson Processes With Non-Linear Boundaries: Applications to Sequential Estimation
Distributions of the first-exit times from a region with non-linear upper boundary are discussed for ordinary and compound Poisson processes. Explicit formulae are developed for the case of ordinary Poisson processes. Recursive formulae are given for the compound Poisson case, where the jumps are positive, having continuous distributions with finite means. Applications to sequential point estim...
