Acceptance-rejection methods for generating random variates from matrix exponential distributions and rational arrival processes (abstract only)

Abstract: Stochastic models based on matrix exponential structures, like matrix exponential distributions and rational arrival processes, have gained popularity in analytical models recently. However the application of these models in simulation based evaluations is not as widespread yet. One of the possible reasons is the lack of efficient random variates generation methods. In this paper we propose methods for efficient random variates generation for matrix exponential stochastic models based on appropriate representations of the models.

Characterization of Negative Exponential Distribution through Expectation

Abstract: For characterization of negative exponential distribution one needs any arbitrary non-constant function only in place of approaches such as identical distributions, absolute continuity, constant regression of order statistics, continuity and linear regression of order statistics, non-degeneracy etc. available in the literature. Path breaking different approach for characterization of negative exponential distribution through expectation of non-constant function of random variable is obtained. An example is given for illustrative purpose.

Characterization of the Riesz exponential family on homogeneous cones

Abstract: In the paper we present a characterization theorem of the Riesz measure and a Wishart exponential family on homogeneous cones through the invariance property of a natural exponential family under the action of the triangular group.
