A reliable Monte Carlo method for the evaluation of first passage times of diffusion processes through boundaries is proposed. A nested algorithm that simulates the first passage time of a suitable tied-down process is introduced to account for undetected crossings that may occur inside each discretization interval of the stochastic differential equation associated to the diffusion. A detailed analysis of the performances of the algorithm is then carried on both via analytical proofs and by means of some numerical examples. The advantages of the new method with respect to a previously proposed numerical-simulative method for the evaluation of first passage times are discussed. Analytical results on the distribution of tied-down diffusion processes are proved in order to provide a theoretical justification of the Monte Carlo method. 相似文献

We consider the boundary crossing problem for time-homogeneous diffusions and general curvilinear boundaries. Bounds are derived
for the approximation error of the one-sided (upper) boundary crossing probability when replacing the original boundary by
a different one. In doing so we establish the existence of the first-passage time density and provide an upper bound for this
function. In the case of processes with diffusion interval equal to ℝ this is extended to a lower bound, as well as bounds
for the first crossing time of a lower boundary. An extension to some time-inhomogeneous diffusions is given. These results
are illustrated by numerical examples.

We propose an approach to compute the boundary crossing probabilities for a class of diffusion processes which can be expressed
as piecewise monotone (not necessarily one-to-one) functionals of a standard Brownian motion. This class includes many interesting
processes in real applications, e.g., Ornstein–Uhlenbeck, growth processes and geometric Brownian motion with time dependent
drift. This method applies to both one-sided and two-sided general nonlinear boundaries, which may be discontinuous. Using
this approach explicit formulas for boundary crossing probabilities for certain nonlinear boundaries are obtained, which are
useful in evaluation and comparison of various computational algorithms. Moreover, numerical computation can be easily done
by Monte Carlo integration and the approximation errors for general boundaries are automatically calculated. Some numerical
examples are presented.

Consider a single-server queue with a Poisson arrival process and exponential processing times in which each customer independently reneges after an exponentially distributed amount of time. We establish that this system can be approximated by either a reflected Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process or a reflected affine diffusion when the arrival rate exceeds or is close to the processing rate and the reneging rate is close to 0. We further compare the quality of the steady-state distribution approximations suggested by each diffusion. 相似文献

Many important classes of multivariate distributions arising from reliability modeling are the distributions of correlated first passage times of certain multivariate point processes. In this paper, we obtain results that compare variability and dependence structure of these correlated first passage times, in the sense of directionally convex ordering. Under certain conditions, we also obtain some easily computable distributional bounds for the first passage times whose joint distributions can not be expressed explicitly. 相似文献

In this note we introduce a process, which we call 'the Poisson broken lines process", and we compute the intensity of a point process which is obtained by intersecting the Poisson broken lines process with an abscissa axis. In the second part we apply this result to compute an explicit lower bound for the time constant of a planar Bernoulli first passage percolation model with the parameter p < pc. 相似文献

We consider some inference problems concerning the drift parameters of multi‐factors Vasicek model (or multivariate Ornstein–Uhlebeck process). For example, in modeling for interest rates, the Vasicek model asserts that the term structure of interest rate is not just a single process, but rather a superposition of several analogous processes. This motivates us to develop an improved estimation theory for the drift parameters when homogeneity of several parameters may hold. However, the information regarding the equality of these parameters may be imprecise. In this context, we consider Stein‐rule (or shrinkage) estimators that allow us to improve on the performance of the classical maximum likelihood estimator (MLE). Under an asymptotic distributional quadratic risk criterion, their relative dominance is explored and assessed. We illustrate the suggested methods by analyzing interbank interest rates of three European countries. Further, a simulation study illustrates the behavior of the suggested method for observation periods of small and moderate lengths of time. Our analytical and simulation results demonstrate that shrinkage estimators (SEs) provide excellent estimation accuracy and outperform the MLE uniformly. An over‐ridding theme of this paper is that the SEs provide powerful extensions of their classical counterparts. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

It is proved that a general non-differentiable skew convolution semigroup associated with a strongly continuous semigroup of linear operators on a real separable Hilbert space can be extended to a differentiable one on the entrance space of the linear semigroup. A càdlàg strong Markov process on an enlargement of the entrance space is constructed from which we obtain a realization of the corresponding Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process. Some explicit characterizations of the entrance spaces for special linear semigroups are given. 相似文献

Consider an Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process with reflection at the origin. Such a process arises as an approximating process both for queueing systems with reneging or state-dependent balking and for multi-server loss models. Consequently, it becomes important to understand its basic properties. In this paper, we show that both the steady-state and transient behavior of the reflected Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process is reasonably tractable. Specifically, we (1) provide an approximation for its transient moments, (2) compute a perturbation expansion for its transition density, (3) give an approximation for the distribution of level crossing times, and (4) establish the growth rate of the maximum process. 相似文献

We then obtain numerical estimations of the above probabilities. 相似文献

We consider a class of Feller semigroups on Lie groups which fail to commute with left translation due to the existence of a cocycle h which is identically one for Lévy processes. Under certain conditions, we are able to show that the infinitesimal generator of such a semigroup has the Lévy–Khintchine–Hunt form but with variable characteristics, thus we obtain an extension of classical work in Euclidean space by Courrège. 相似文献

We consider an approach based on tails to certain central limit and functional central limit theorems for a class of two color
urn models. In particular, some of the results are derived from an associated Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process, and for another
result we give an alternative proof based on martingale tails.

Skew convolution semigroups play an important role in the study of generalized Mehler semigroups and Ornstein–Uhlenbeck processes. We give a characterization for a general skew convolution semigroup on a real separable Hilbert space whose characteristic functional is not necessarily differentiable at the initial time. A connection between this subject and catalytic branching superprocesses is established through fluctuation limits, providing a rich class of non-differentiable skew convolution semigroups. Path regularity of the corresponding generalized Ornstein–Uhlenbeck processes in different topologies is also discussed. 相似文献

The class of generalized z–distributions is defined and their properties are investigated. Ornstein–Uhlenbeck–type and self–similar generalized z–processes are constructed and described. Esscher transforms of the generalized z–processes and the mixed generalized z–processes are characterized. Finally, construction and some properties of generalized z–diffusions are also discussed. 相似文献

The problem of detecting the presence of a quantitative gene using a great number of markers in a backcross genetic scheme is addressed.An asymptotic test based on the maximum of a differentiable stochastic process is constructed. Bounds for threshold and power calculation are presented. Simulations and numerical experiments illustrate the convergence towards the asymptotic distribution and the sharpness of the bounds. 相似文献

Based on the shuffle product expansion of exponential Lie series in terms of a Philip Hall basis for the stochastic differential equations of jump-diffusion type, we can establish Stratonovich–Taylor–Hall (STH) schemes. However, the STHr scheme converges only at order r in the mean-square sense. In order to have the almost sure Stratonovich–Taylor–Hall (ASTH) schemes, we have to include all the terms related to multiple Poissonian integrals as the moments of multiple Poissonian integrals always have lower orders of magnitudes as compared with those of multiple Brownian integrals. 相似文献
