Compound Poisson Limits for Household Epidemics
We consider epidemics in populations that are partitioned into small groups known as households. Whilst infectious, a typical infective makes global and local contact with individuals chosen independently and uniformly from the whole population or their own household, as appropriate. Previously, the classical Poisson approximation for the number of survivors of a severe epidemic has been extend...
متن کاملHierarchical Compound Poisson Factorization
Non-negative matrix factorization models based on a hierarchical Gamma-Poisson structure capture user and item behavior effectively in extremely sparse data sets, making them the ideal choice for collaborative filtering applications. Hierarchical Poisson factorization (HPF) in particular has proved successful for scalable recommendation systems with extreme sparsity. HPF, however, suffers from ...
متن کاملCompound Poisson Cascades
Multiplicative processes and multifractals proved useful in various applications ranging from hydrodynamic turbulence to computer network traffic. Placing multifractal analysis in the more general framework of infinitely divisible laws, we design processes which possess at the same time stationary increments as well as multifractal and more general infinitely divisible scaling over a continuous...
متن کاملCompound Poisson Disorder Problem
In compound Poisson disorder problem, arrival rate and/or jump distribution of some compound Poisson process change suddenly at some unknown and unobservable time. The problem is to detect the change (or disorder) time as quickly as possible. A sudden regime-shift may require some counter-measures be taken promptly, and a quickest detection rule can help with those efforts. We describe complete...
متن کاملCompound Poisson process approximation
Compound Poisson processes are often useful as approximate models, when describing the occurrence of rare events. In this paper, we develop a method for showing how close such approximations are. Our approach is to use Stein's method directly, rather than by way of declumping and a marked Poisson process; this has conceptual advantages, but entails technical difficulties. Several applications a...
