A Useful Family of Stochastic Processes for Modeling Shape Diffusions

author

Abstract:

 One of the new area of research emerging in the field of statistics is the shape analysis. Shape is defined as all the geometrical information of an object whose location, scale and orientation is not of interest. Diffusion in shape analysis can be studied via either perturbation of the key coordinates identifying the initial object or random evolution of the shape itself. Reviewing the first case, we mainly consider the second case and particularly define a new family of diffusion processes. It can be used to model diffusion phenomena represented by shape evolution such as cell motion.

Stochastic Processes and Control for Jump-Diffusions∗

An applied compact introductory survey of Markov stochastic processes and control in continuous time is presented. The presentation is in tutorial stages, beginning with deterministic dynamical systems for contrast and continuing on to perturbing the deterministic model with diffusions using Wiener processes. Then jump perturbations are added using simple Poisson processes constructing the theo...

an investigation about the appropriate stochastic modeling framework for agricultural insurance pricing

با توجه به اینکه بیمه محصولات کشاورزی در ایران بیشتر جنبه ای حمایتی دارد و خسارات گزارش شده عموما بیش از حق بیمه های دریافت شده است، در این پایان نامه به جهت تعیین قیمت بیمه محصولات کشاورزی (گندم دیم) از فرآیندهای نوفه شلیک به عنوان مدلی مناسب استفاده شده است. بر اساس داده های صندوق بیمه کشاورزی از خسارات اعلام شده در سال زراعی 1388-1389 گندم دیم، در این پایان نامه حق بیمه خالص و ناخالص این محص...

Stochastic derivatives for fractional diffusions

In this paper, we introduce some fundamental notions related to the so-called stochastic derivatives with respect to a given σ-field Q. In our framework, we recall well-known results about Markov Wiener diffusions. We afterwards mainly focus on the case where X is a fractional diffusion and where Q is the past, the future or the present of X . We treat some crucial examples and our main result ...

Useful Martingales for Stochastic Storage Processes with Lévy-Type Input

In this paper we generalize the martingale of Kella and Whitt to the setting of Lévy-type processes and show that under some quite minimal conditions the local martingales are actually L martingales which upon dividing by the time index converge to zero a.s. and in L. We apply these results to generalize known decomposition results for Lévy queues with secondary jump inputs and queues with serv...
