  2. Compound Poisson process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_Poisson_process

    The jumps arrive randomly according to a Poisson process and the size of the jumps is also random, with a specified probability distribution. To be precise, a compound Poisson process, parameterised by a rate > and jump size distribution G, is a process {():} given by

  3. Compound Poisson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_Poisson_distribution

    The shift geometric distribution is discrete compound Poisson distribution since it is a trivial case of negative binomial distribution. This distribution can model batch arrivals (such as in a bulk queue [5] [9]). The discrete compound Poisson distribution is also widely used in actuarial science for modelling the distribution of the total ...

  4. Poisson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_distribution

    The non-constant arrival rate may be modeled as a mixed Poisson distribution, and the arrival of groups rather than individual students as a compound Poisson process. The number of magnitude 5 earthquakes per year in a country may not follow a Poisson distribution, if one large earthquake increases the probability of aftershocks of similar ...

  5. Phase-type distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-type_distribution

    Further, let the process have an initial probability of starting in any of the m + 1 phases given by the probability vector (α 0,α) where α 0 is a scalar and α is a 1 × m vector. The continuous phase-type distribution is the distribution of time from the above process's starting until absorption in the absorbing state.

  6. Basic affine jump diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_affine_jump_diffusion

    In mathematics probability theory, a basic affine jump diffusion (basic AJD) is a stochastic process Z of the form = + +,,, where is a standard Brownian motion, and is an independent compound Poisson process with constant jump intensity and independent exponentially distributed jumps with mean .

  7. Renewal theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renewal_theory

    The renewal process is a generalization of the Poisson process. In essence, the Poisson process is a continuous-time Markov process on the positive integers (usually starting at zero) which has independent exponentially distributed holding times at each integer i {\displaystyle i} before advancing to the next integer, i + 1 {\displaystyle i+1} .

  8. Stochastic simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_simulation

    Exponential distribution describes the time between events in a Poisson process, i.e. a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate. The exponential distribution is popular, for example, in queuing theory when we want to model the time we have to wait until a certain event takes place. Examples ...

  9. Tweedie distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tweedie_distribution

    In probability and statistics, the Tweedie distributions are a family of probability distributions which include the purely continuous normal, gamma and inverse Gaussian distributions, the purely discrete scaled Poisson distribution, and the class of compound Poisson–gamma distributions which have positive mass at zero, but are otherwise continuous.
