Implied distributions in multiple change point problems

J. A. D. Aston, J. Y. Peng, D. E. K. Martin
2011 Statistics and computing  
It is shown that, in contrast to sampling methods, very little computation is needed. The method provides probabilities associated with change points within an interval, as well as at specific points.  ...  A method for efficiently calculating exact marginal, conditional and joint distributions for change points defined by general finite state Hidden Markov Models is proposed.  ...  The methods are ways of detecting and evaluating change points that are implied by a model. In addition, formulas are given to facilitate evaluation of joint and marginal change point distributions.  ...

Testing exchangeability with martingale for change-point detection [article]

Liang Dai, Mohamed-Rafik Bouguelia
2020 arXiv   pre-print
An online algorithm based on Beta distribution parametrization for constructing this betting function is discussed in detail as well.  ...  By choosing the underlying probability density function of p-values as a betting function, it can be shown that, when a change-point appears, a satisfying trade-off between the smoothness and expected  ...  Given the fact that both ( ) and ρ( ) integrate to 1 in [0,1], we get = 1, and it implies that the optimum to the optimization problem in eq. (13) is ρ( ).  ...

Multiple change-point detection via a screening and ranking algorithm

Ning Hao, Yue Selena Niu, Heping Zhang
2013 Statistica sinica  
In particular, we develop a false discovery rate approach to the multiple change-point problem and show a strong sure coverage property for the SaRa.  ...  The detection of the change points, namely the positions where the mean changes, is an important problem in such fields as engineering, economics, climatology and bioscience.  ...  For multiple-change-point problem, the number of change points and their locations are to be estimated.  ...

Consistent multiple testing for change points

Kuo-mei Chen, Arthur Cohen, Harold Sackrowitz
2011 Journal of Multivariate Analysis  
The change point problem for independent normal means is considered as a multiple testing problem. Two stepwise methods are considered.  ...  Various approaches to this multiple testing problem, called a change point problem, have been considered, see Chen and Gupta [4] .  ...  The methodology called MRD is developed in Cohen et al. [5] . The MRD methodology can be applied in a variety of multiple testing settings other than change point.  ...

To threshold or not to threshold? That's the question

Song S. Qian, Thomas F. Cuffney
2012 Ecological Indicators  
The paper focuses on the question of whether a threshold model is appropriate, and demonstrates the importance of evaluating multiple alternative models in the detection of ecological thresholds, and illustrates  ...  Other uses, including reproduction and distribution, or selling or licensing copies, or posting to personal, institutional or third party websites are prohibited.  ...  In a threshold modeling problem, the multiple model approach is especially important because the three alternative threshold models can often produce a change point even when a threshold does not exist  ...

Barankin-Type Lower Bound on Multiple Change-Point Estimation

Patricio S. La Rosa, Alexandre Renaux, Carlos H. Muravchik, Arye Nehorai
2010 IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing  
We compute lower bounds on the mean-square error of multiple change-point estimation. In this context, the parameters are discrete and the Cramér-Rao bound is not applicable.  ...  Several closed-form expressions of the elements of BIM are given for changes in the parameters of Gaussian and Poisson distributions.  ...  parameters in addition to the multiple change-point localizations.  ...

Nonparametric Bayesian approach to the detection of change point in statistical process control

Issah N. Suleiman, M. Akif Bakir
2017 Hacettepe Journal of Mathematics and Statistics  
This approach can be further extended in the multivariate change point detection which will be studied in the near future.  ...  This paper gives an intensive overview of nonparametric Bayesian model relevant to the determination of change point in a process control.  ...  In this article we use the nonparametric Bayesian approach to detect change point by not restricting the distributions to be just priori distributed and also we develop that into the multiple change point  ...

Prior Influence on Weiss-Weinstein Bounds for Multiple Change- Point Estimation

Lucien Bacharach, Alexandre Renaux, Mohammed Nabil El Korso
2018 2018 26th European Signal Processing Conference (EUSIPCO)  
In this paper, we study the influence of the prior distribution on the Weiss-Weinstein bound (WWB) in the ubiquitous multiple change-point estimation problem.  ...  WWBs for the multiple change-point problem In this section, we derive expressions of the WWBs for the multiple change-point estimation problem presented in Section II-A.  ...  An important example of discrete parameter estimation problem is the change-point problem, in which the distribution of the observations abruptly changes at an unknown time instant, named "change-point  ...

The geometry of III-conditioning

James W Demmel
1987 Journal of Complexity  
Numerous problems in numerical analysis, including matrix inversion, eigenvalue calculations, and polynomial zero finding, share the following property: the difficulty of solving a given problem is large  ...  From this probability distribution we derive, for example, the distribution of the condition number of a random matrix.  ...  This permits us to normalize all our problems to have unit norm (lie on the unit sphere in either RN or C~), and implies that any results on the distribution of the condition number will hold for any distribution  ...

Posterior Convergence and Model Estimation in Bayesian Change-point Problems [article]

Heng Lian
2008 arXiv   pre-print
We study the posterior distribution of the Bayesian multiple change-point regression problem when the number and the locations of the change-points are unknown.  ...  Finally, we argue that the point-wise posterior convergence property as demonstrated might have bad finite sample performance in that consistent posterior for model selection necessarily implies the maximal  ...  In our context, similar conclusion can be drawn for the Bayesian multiple change-point problem.  ...

Ruling Out Multiplicity and Indeterminacy: The Role of Heterogeneity

Berthold Herrendorf, Akos Valentinyi, Robert Waldmann
2000 The Review of Economic Studies  
We illustrate this point in a version of Matsuyama' s (1991) two-sector model with increasing returns to scale. Two main results are shown.  ...  We argue that the importance of this source of multiplicity and indeterminacy is overstated in representative agent models, as they ignore the potential stabilizing effect of heterogeneity.  ...  In general, a distribution and its spread can have more than one crossing point.  ...

Structural change and income distribution: An inverted-U relationship

Fabrizio Patriarca, Francesco Vona
2013 Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control  
We show that, in an economy where preferences and technology adapt over time, multiple long-term outcomes are mainly brought about by different distributive rules governing the assignment of innovative  ...  Instead, when innovative rents are too concentrated in favor of either workers or entrepreneurs, the system does not fully accomplish the transition and unemployment might emerge, in contrast, with the  ...  From a methodological point of view, considering multiple outcomes as emerging from disequilibrium coordination problems (Howitt, 1994; Amendola et al., 2001) implies rethinking the stark dichotomy between  ...

A finite mixture of multiple discrete distributions for modelling heaped count data

Lluís Bermúdez, Dimitris Karlis, Miguel Santolino
2017 Computational Statistics & Data Analysis  
A new modelling approach, based on finite mixtures of multiple discrete distributions of different multiplicities, is proposed to fit data with a lot of periodic spikes in certain values.  ...  An EM algorithm is provided in order to ensure the models' ease-of-fit and then a simulation study is presented to show its efficiency.  ...  We do not allow the λ to be zero since this implies a points mass at zero regardless the multiplicity and hence leads to identifiability problems.  ...
