Modeling of HIV/AIDS dynamic evolution using non-homogeneous semi-markov process
The purpose of this study is to model the progression of HIV/AIDS disease of an individual patient under ART follow-up using non-homogeneous semi-Markov processes. The model focuses on the patient's age as a relevant factor to forecast the transitions among the different levels of seriousness of the disease. A sample of 1456 patients was taken from a hospital record at Amhara Referral Hospitals...
متن کاملNon-parametric Estimation for Non- homogeneous Semi-Markov Processes: An Application to Credit Risk
We propose procedures for estimating the time-dependent transition matrices for the general class of finite nonhomogeneous continuous-time semiMarkov processes. We prove the existence, and Fréchet differentiability, of a unique solution for the system of Volterra integral equations which relates the transition matrix with the subdensity functions, therefore showing that the realized transition ...
متن کاملA Non-Parametric Test for Continuous-Time Homogeneous Markov Process: Is It a Diffusion Process?
This paper proposes a nonparametric method to test whether an underlying continuoustime homogeneous Markov process is a diffusion process. The test statistic is based on the infinitesimal generator. Under the null hypothesis, we show that the limit distribution of the test statistic is normal. Under the alternative hypothesis, where the jump-diffusion process is assumed, the power of the test i...
متن کاملDiscrete Time Homogeneous and non-Homogeneous semi-Markov Reliability Models.∗
In this paper, we extend to our knowledge, for the first case, some reliability results obtained using homogeneous semi-Markov processes to the case of non-homogenous semi-Markov modelisation. Moreover, we apply some of our preceding results to give the numerical solutions and so the possibility to treat real life problems for which non-homogeneity in time is important.
متن کاملNon-homogeneous Semi-markov Reward Process for the Management of Health Insurance Models
How it is simple and natural to apply NHSMRP to actuarial science is showed in the paper. Two models useful to solve Permanent Health Insurance (PHI) problems are proposed. The second one is a generalization of the first and permit to take in account not only the insured age, as is usually done in the literature, but also to follow the time evolution. The reward structure permits to consider si...
