First passage time of skew Brownian motion

Creator:: Appuhamillage, Thilanka and Sheldon, Daniel
Abstract:: Nearly fifty years after the introduction of skew Brownian motion by Itô and McKean (1963), the first passage time distribution remains unknown. In this paper, we first generalize results of Pitman and Yor (2001) and Csáki and Hu (2004) to derive formulae for the distribution of ranked excursion heights of...

On the joint behavior of types of coupons in generalized coupon collection

Creator:: Mahmoud, Hosam M. and Smythe, Robert T.
Abstract:: The "coupon collection problem" refers to a class of occupancy problems, in which j identical items are distributed, independently and at random, to n cells, with no restrictions on multiple occupancy. Identifying the cells as coupons, a coupon is "collected" if the cell is occupied by one or more of...

The estimation of transition probabilities in a student flow model

Creator:: Chiu, Wu-yan
Abstract:: This study was concerned with the estimation of transition probabilities in a finite state Markov-type student flow model. Goals setting for this study were three in number: (1) Study of the methods which will provide conclusions that (a) the transition probabilities are stationary or nonstationary and (b) the process is...

An atom approach to assessing the outlier properties of probability models

Creator:: Hanlen, Richard C.
Abstract:: This thesis is concerned with the problem of developing a method to categorize probability models by their outlier properties. There have been two such categorization methods proposed in the literature. Neyman and Scott (1971) classify an entire family of distributions into the outlier properties outlier-prone completely (OPC) and outlier resistant....

Applying probability to a particular hiring practice

Creator:: Olson, Kenneth Norman
Abstract:: Before we apply the laws of probability to hiring practices, a foundation of basic probability theory will be presented. In this presentation a number of theorems related to probability will be proven. These theorems are not necessarily applicable to the problem which follows; however, they are basic to probability theory...

Nonparametric estimation of distributions using orthogonal expansions

Creator:: Crain, Bradford Robert
Abstract:: Methods of approximation and estimation of the density and the cumulative distribution function of a distribution over a finite interval are investigated. Goodness of the methods is measured pointwise and in terms of mean integrated squared error (MISE). If the density obeys certain regulatory conditions, i. e. , continuous, positive,...

A probability model for irradiated bacteria and methods to obtain estimates of the parameters

Creator:: Peura, Bonita Jean
Abstract:: A probability model has been developed for the survival of irradiated bacteria with respect to the dose of radiation. This model is applicable to those bacterial taxa to which the target theory applies. Three estimation procedures are given for the purpose of obtaining estimates of the probability model's parameters. These...
