On Generalized Pólya Urn Models
We study an urn model introduced in the paper of Chen and Wei [2], where at each discrete time step m balls are drawn at random from the urn containing colors white and black. Balls are added to the urn according to the inspected colors, generalizing the well known Pólya-Eggenberger urn model, case m = 1. We provide exact expressions for the expectation and the variance of the number of white b...
متن کاملGeneralized Pólya Urn Designs with Null Balance
In this paper we propose a class of sequential urn designs based on generalized Pólya urn (GPU) models for balancing the allocations of two treatments in sequential clinical trials. In particular, we consider a GPU model characterized by a 2× 2 random addition matrix with null balance (i.e. null row sums) and replacement rule depending upon the urn composition. Under this scheme, the urn proces...
متن کاملA Generalized Urn Model in Clinical Trials
Urn models are very popular and useful for adaptive designs in clinical studies. Among various urn models, the drop-the-loser rule is an efficient adaptive treatment allocation scheme, recently proposed for comparing different treatments in clinical trials. This rule is superior to other randomization schemes in terms of variability and power. In this paper, the drop-the-loser rule is generaliz...
متن کاملGeneralized Urn Models of Evolutionary Processes
Generalized Polya urn models can describe the dynamics of finite populations of interacting genotypes. Three basic questions these models can address are: Under what conditions does a population exhibit growth? On the event of growth, at what rate does the population increase? What is the long term behavior of the distribution of genotypes? To address these questions, we associate a mean limit ...
متن کاملLogical equivalence between generalized urn models and finite automata
To every generalized urn model there exists a finite (Mealy) automaton with identical propositional calculus. The converse is true as well.
