Simulation for Statistical Inference in Dynamic Network Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
Actor-oriented models are proposed for the statistical analysis of longitudinal social network data. These models are implemented as simulation models, and the statistical evaluation is based on the method of moments and the Robbins-Monro process applied to computer simulation outcomes. In this approach, the calculations that are required for statistical inference are too complex to be carried out analytically, and therefore they are replaced by computer simulation. The statistical models are continuous-time Markov chains. It is shown how the reciprocity model of Wasserman and Leenders can be formulated as a special case of the actor-oriented model.

متن کاملDesign and Simulation of Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference Based Controller for Chaotic Lorenz System
Chaos is a nonlinear behavior that shows chaotic and irregular responses to internal and external stimuli in dynamic systems. This behavior usually appears in systems that are highly sensitive to initial condition. In these systems, stabilization is a highly considerable tool for eliminating aberrant behaviors. In this paper, the problem of stabilization and tracking the chaos are investigated....

متن کاملStatistical Inference in Autoregressive Models with Non-negative Residuals
Normal residual is one of the usual assumptions of autoregressive models but in practice sometimes we are faced with non-negative residuals case. In this paper we consider some autoregressive models with non-negative residuals as competing models and we have derived the maximum likelihood estimators of parameters based on the modified approach and EM algorithm for the competing models. Also,...
