The expansions are useful in the wide range of stochastic model applications in which a PGF admits poles in its analytic continuation. The error of such an expansion is a contour integral in the analytic continuation and saddlepoint approximations are developed for such errors using the method of steepest descents. These saddlepoint error estimates attain sufficient accuracy that they can be used to set the order of the expansion so it achieves a specified error. Numerical applications include a success run tutorial example, the discrete ruin model, the Pollaczek-Khintchine formula, and passage times for semi-Markov processes. The residue expansions apply more generally for inverting generating functions which arise in renewal theory and combinatorics and lead to a simple proof of the classic renewal theorem. They extend even further for determining Taylor coefficients of general meromorphic functions.","PeriodicalId":21970,"journal":{"name":"Stochastic Models","volume":"39 1","pages":"469 - 501"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47225723","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The mission process is the minimal semi-Markov process associated with a Markov renewal process. Therefore, the successive phases of the mission follow a Markov chain, and the phase durations are generally distributed. The lifetimes of the non-identical components in the system are assumed to be generally distributed and are modeled using intrinsic aging concepts. Moreover, the lifetime parameters of the components and the configuration of the system change depending on the phases of the mission. We characterize the mean time to failure through solving a Poisson equation, and we analyze the system availability assuming that repair duration has a general distribution which is dependent on the phase of the mission during which the failure has occurred and on the deterioration level of the system.","PeriodicalId":21970,"journal":{"name":"Stochastic Models","volume":"39 1","pages":"414 - 447"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46798700","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, some discussions have been made on comparing finite mixture models. In this paper, we discuss stochastic comparison of two FM models with respect to usual stochastic order when the mixture components have a general family of distributions. This problem has been studied when there is heterogeneity in one parameter (i.e., the distributional parameter), as well as when there is heterogeneity in two parameters (i.e., the distributional parameter and the mixing proportions). The sufficient conditions considered are based on p-larger order and reciprocally majorization order. Several examples have been provided to illustrate the established results.","PeriodicalId":21970,"journal":{"name":"Stochastic Models","volume":"39 1","pages":"363 - 382"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48858509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We demonstrate that for polynomial and rational functions of that random variable there exist at most finitely many risk critical points. The latter are those special values of the threshold parameter for which rate of change of risk is unbounded as δ approaches them. Under weak conditions, we characterize candidates for risk critical points as zeroes of either the discriminant of a relevant perturbed polynomial, or of its leading coefficient, or both. Thus the equations that need to be solved are themselves polynomial equations in δ that exploit the algebraic properties of the underlying polynomial or rational functions.

Investors obtain information on that drift from return observations and discrete-time expert opinions as an external source of information. Estimates of the hidden drift process are based on filtering techniques. Our focus is the case of high-frequency experts periodically providing their views on the drift with variances growing linearly with the arrival frequency. The latter condition guarantees that the delivered information per time is limited. The asymptotic behavior of the filter as the arrival frequency tends to infinity is described by limit theorems. These state that the information obtained from observing the discrete-time expert opinions is asymptotically the same as that from observing a certain diffusion process. We apply these diffusion approximations of the filter for deriving simplified approximate solutions of utility maximization problems with logarithmic and power utility.","PeriodicalId":21970,"journal":{"name":"Stochastic Models","volume":"39 1","pages":"323 - 362"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46582844","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The marginal distributions are phase-type and discrete phase-type distributed, respectively, which allow for flexible behavior for modeling purposes. We show that the distribution is dense in the class of distributions on $mathbb{R}_{+} times mathbb{N}$ and derive some of its main properties, all explicit in terms of matrix calculus. Furthermore, we develop an effective EM algorithm for the statistical estimation of the distribution parameters. In the last part of the paper, we apply our methodology to an insurance dataset, where we model the number of claims and the mean claim sizes of policyholders, which is seen to perform favorably. An additional consequence of the latter analysis is that the total loss size in the entire portfolio is captured substantially better than with independent phase-type models.","PeriodicalId":21970,"journal":{"name":"Stochastic Models","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41511202","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
