The Poisson Compound Decision Problem Revisited
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract: The compound decision problem for a vector of independent Poisson random variables with possibly different means has half a century old solution. However, it appears that the classical solution needs smoothing adjustment even when there are many observations and relatively small means such that the empirical distribution is close to its mean. We discuss three such adjustments. We also present another approach that first transforms the problem into the normal compound decision problem.

متن کاملSequential Testing of Simple Hypotheses about Compound Poisson Processes
One of two simple hypotheses is correct about the unknown arrival rate and jump distribution of a compound Poisson process. We start observing the process, and the problem is to decide on the correct hypothesis as soon as possible and with the smallest probability of wrong decision. We find a Bayes-optimal sequential decision rule and describe completely how to calculate its parameters without ...
متن کاملExact maximum coverage probabilities of confidence intervals with increasing bounds for Poisson distribution mean
A Poisson distribution is well used as a standard model for analyzing count data. So the Poisson distribution parameter estimation is widely applied in practice. Providing accurate confidence intervals for the discrete distribution parameters is very difficult. So far, many asymptotic confidence intervals for the mean of Poisson distribution is provided. It is known that the coverag...
متن کاملFinite Horizon Decision Timing with Partially Observable Poisson Processes
We study decision timing problems on finite horizon with Poissonian information arrivals. In our model, a decision maker wishes to optimally time her action in order to maximize her expected reward. The reward depends on an unobservable Markovian environment, and information about the environment is collected through a (compound) Poisson observation process. Examples of such systems arise in in...
