Simulating longer vectors of correlated binary random variables via multinomial sampling
The ability to simulate correlated binary data is important for sample size calculation and comparison of methods for analysis of clustered and longitudinal data with dichotomous outcomes. One available approach for simulating length n vectors of dichotomous random variables is to sample from the multinomial distribution of all possible length n permutations of zeros and ones. However, the mult...
متن کاملA Survey on Simulating Stable Random Variables
In general case, Chambers et al. (1976) introduced the following algorithm for simulating any stable random variables $ X/sim(alpha, beta, gamma, delta) $ with four parameters. They use a nonlinear transformation of two independent uniform random variables for simulating an stable random variable... (to continue, click here)
متن کاملSimulating Bessel Random Variables
In this paper, we discuss efficient exact random variate generation for the Bessel distribution. The expected time of the algorithm is uniformly bounded over all choices of the parameters, and the algorithm avoids any computation of Bessel functions or Bessel ratios.
متن کاملMultinomial-sampling models for random genetic drift.
Three different derivations of models with multinomial sampling of genotypes in a finite population are presented. The three derivations correspond to the operation of random drift through population regulation, conditioning on the total number of progeny, and culling, respectively. Generations are discrete and nonoverlapping; the diploid population mates at random. Each derivation applies to a...
متن کاملSymmetrization of Binary Random Variables
A random variable Y is called an independent symmetrizer of a given random variable X if (a) it is independent of X and (b) the distribution of X + Y is symmetric about 0. In cases where the distribution of X is symmetric about its mean, it is easy to see that the constant random variable Y = −EX is a minimum-variance independent symmetrizer. Taking Y to have the same distribution as −X clearly...
