In this paper, we investigate a competing risks model based on exponentiated Weibull distribution under Type-I progressively hybrid censoring scheme. To estimate the unknown parameters and reliability function, the maximum likelihood estimators and asymptotic confidence intervals are derived. Since Bayesian posterior density functions cannot be given in closed forms, we adopt Markov chain Monte Carlo method to calculate approximate Bayes estimators and highest posterior density credible intervals. To illustrate the estimation methods, a simulation study is carried out with numerical results. It is concluded that the maximum likelihood estimation and Bayesian estimation can be used for statistical inference in competing risks model under Type-I progressively hybrid
censoring scheme.
Variance related premium principle is one of the most important principles not only in practice applications but also in research field of actuarial science. In this paper, the Bayesian models are established under variance related premium principle. The Bayesian estimate and credibility estimate of risk premium are derived. Furthermore, some statistical properties of estimators are discussed. In the models with multitude contract data, the unbiased consistent estimates of the structure parameters are proposed. Finally, the empirical Bayes estimator are proved to be asymptotically optimal.
Concerning the problem that network congestion risk of computer network service system for some data frames having a full priority of transmission, a method about nonpreemptive limited-priority M/M/n/m queuing system model was proposed. Firstly, as the parameter r of limited-priority was introduced into the model, the data frame with full priority was converted to the one with limited priority. Secondly, in order to lower the risk of computer network service system and stabilize the network system further, the fairness among different priorities was studied in the model. Moreover, by making use of Total Probability Theorem, three results of the models, the average waiting time, the average dwelling time and the average queue length were obtained.
We establish a quenched central limit theorem (CLT) for the branching Brownian motion with random immigration in dimension $d\geq4$. The limit is a Gaussian random measure, which is the same as the annealed central limit theorem, but the covariance kernel of the limit is different from that in the annealed sense when d=4.
The discriminatory processor sharing queues with multiple classes of customers (abbreviated as DPS queues) are an important but difficult research direction in queueing theory, and it has many important practical applications in the fields of, such as, computer networks, manufacturing systems, transportation networks, and so forth. Recently, researchers have carried out some key work for the DPS queues. They gave the generating function of the steady-state joint queue lengths, which leads to the first two moments of the steady-state joint queue lengths. However, using the generating function to provide explicit expressions for
the steady-state joint queue lengths has been a difficult and challenging problem for many years. Based on this, this paper applies the maximum entropy
principle in the information theory to providing an approximate expression with high precision, and this approximate expression can have the same first three moments as those of its exact expression. On the other hand, this paper gives efficiently numerical computation by means of this approximate expression, and analyzes how the key variables of this approximate expression depend on the original parameters of this queueing system in terms of some numerical experiments. Therefore, this approximate expression has important theoretical significance to promote practical applications of the DPS queues. At the same time, not only do the methodology and results given in this paper provide a new line in the study of DPS queues, but they also provide the theoretical basis and technical support for how to apply the information theory to the study of queueing systems, queueing networks and more generally, stochastic models.
In this paper, for a kind of risk models with heavy-tailed and delayed claims, we derive the asymptotics of the infinite-time ruin probability and the uniform asymptotics of the finite-time ruin probability. The numerical simulation results are also presented. The results of theoretical analysis and numerical simulation
show that the influence of the delay for the claim payment is nearly negligible to the ruin probability when the initial capital and running-time are all large.
At present, in degradation tests, product failure is generally defined as degradation of performance below or above a specified critical value (that is called single point degradation). Although this definition is simple and practical, it is not reasonable enough and degradation failure of the product can not be completely described. In this paper, a single point degradation model is improved, and an interval degeneration model is proposed. We discuss the interval degradation model when the degradation path is liner, and obtain life distribution functions for all kinds of linear interval degradation model. Numerical integration and Monte Carlo simulation methods are used to analyze and compare the life distribution of the interval degradation model and the single point degradation model, and the relationship between the interval degradation and the single point degradation is revealed. Finally, an real data example is analysis to show that interval egradation is more reasonable and effective in practice.
