A Random Walk with Exponential Travel Times
Consider the random walk among N places with N(N - 1)/2 transports. We attach an exponential random variable Xij to each transport between places Pi and Pj and take these random variables mutually independent. If transports are possible or impossible independently with probability p and 1-p, respectively, then we give a lower bound for the distribution function of the smallest path at point log...
متن کاملFinite-sample Properties of the Maximum Likelihood Estimator for the Binary Logit Model with Random Covariates

Analytic expressions for the first-order bias and second-orde...
متن کاملRandom Walk in a Random Multiplieative Environment
We investigate the dynamics of a random walk in a random multiplicative medium. This results in a random, but correlated, multiplicative process for the spatial distribution of random walkers. We show how the details of these correlations determine the asymptotic properties of the walk, i.e., the central limit theorem does not apply to these multiplicative processes. We also study a periodic so...
متن کاملRandom Walk in Random Environment: A Counterexample?
We describe a family of random walks in random environments which have exponentially decaying correlations, nearest neighbor transition probabilities which are bounded away from 0, and yet are subdiffusive in any dimension d < o e .
متن کاملClosed Form Maximum Likelihood Estimator Of Conditional Random Fields
Training Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) can be very slow for big data. In this paper, we present a new training method for CRFs called Empirical Training which is motivated by the concept of co-occurrence rate. We show that the standard training (unregularized) can have many maximum likelihood estimations (MLEs). Empirical training has a unique closed form MLE which is also a MLE of the stand...
