Memory Function versus Binary Correlator in Additive Markov Chains
We study properties of the additive binary Markov chain with short and longrange correlations. A new approach is suggested that allows one to express global statistical properties of a binary chain in terms of the so-called memory function. The latter is directly connected with the pair correlator of a chain via the integral equation that is analyzed in great detail. To elucidate the relation b...
متن کاملAdditive Schwarz Iterations for Markov Chains
A convergence analysis is presented for additive Schwarz iterations when applied to consistent singular systems of equations of the form Ax = b. The theory applies to singular M -matrices with one-dimensional null space and is applicable in particular to systems representing ergodic Markov chains, and to certain discretizations of partial differential equations. Additive Schwarz can be seen as ...
متن کاملRestricted additive Schwarz methods for Markov chains
The Restricted Additive Schwarz (RAS) method is adapted to the problem of computing the stationary probability distribution vector of large, sparse, irreducible stochastic matrices. Inexact and two-level variants are also considered, as well as acceleration by Krylov subspace methods. The convergence properties are analyzed and extensive numerical experiments aimed at assessing the effect of va...
متن کاملEmpirical Bayes Estimation in Nonstationary Markov chains
Estimation procedures for nonstationary Markov chains appear to be relatively sparse. This work introduces empirical Bayes estimators for the transition probability matrix of a finite nonstationary Markov chain. The data are assumed to be of a panel study type in which each data set consists of a sequence of observations on N>=2 independent and identically dis...
متن کاملA Bayesian model for binary Markov chains
This note is concerned with Bayesian estimation of the transition probabilities of a binary Markov chain observed from heterogeneous individuals. The model is founded on Jeffreys’ prior which allows for transition probabilities to be correlated. The Bayesian estimator is approximated by means of Monte Carlo Markov chain (MCMC) techniques. The performance of the Bayesian estimates is illustrated...
