Abstract:
The research object of this thesis is the sum of a random number of summands of independent identically distributed random variables with positive weights. Such sums appear as models, for example, in insurance, finance mathematics. Throughout the thesis, it is assumed that the random number of summands is independent of the summands, the summands satisfy S. N. Bernstein's condition, and the random number of summands together with weights satisfy some compatibility conditions. The aim of this dissertation is a normal approximation to a distribution of the sum of a random number of summands of independent identically distributed random variables with positive weights that takes into consideration large deviations in both the Cramer and the power Linnik zones.

The mathematical statistics probability distributions are analyzed in this master thesis. The main purpose is to carry out the analysis of independent beta random variables products distribution. This theme is relevant to the reliability analysis of complex systems theory. The theoretics of unlimited divisible probability distributions is described in this master thesis. Following theory is useful to investigate the sums of independent random variables. The theoretics of M-divisible probability distributions is also described in this master thesis. It is useful to investigate the product of independent random variables. Two theorems about the product of finite number of independent beta random variables are formulated in this master thesis. Following theorems tells us, that product is beta random variable again, and its parameters expressions are related with multiplicands parameters. Theorems are proved when we are multiplying two independent beta random variables. Another theorem that is about characteristic function of beta random variable logarithm is formulated and proved in this master thesis.

Abstract:
Cette thèse porte sur le calcul de Malliavin dont on munit deux cadres discrets. On équipe tout produit dénombrable d'espaces de probabilités d'une structure de Dirichlet-Malliavin au moyen d'opérateurs (gradient, divergence, opérateur nombre), d'une formule d'intégration par parties, et des formes de Dirichlet induites. On obtient les analogues discrets aux identités fonctionnelles classiques des processus Brownien et Poisson dont les structures de Dirichlet s'écrivent comme limites des structures induites par notre formalisme. Des critères de Stein-Malliavin discrets sont établis pour les approximations Normale et Gamma. Le second cadre est celui d'un modèle financier ternaire sous-tendu par un processus géométrique composé à trois points, et équivalent en loi au modèle trinomial. Toute fonctionnelle de ce processus géométrique composé de carré intégrable possède un développement en chaos "modifié" sur lequel agissent des opérateurs d'annihilation/gradient et de création/divergence vérifiant en outre une formule de commutation généralisée. S'ensuit de la formulede Clark "géométrique" qu'il est alors possible d'établir, une formule de hedging pour l'initié dont l'utilité additionnelle espérée s'exprime en termes d'entropie relative, comme dans le cas continu
Malliavin calculus was initially developed to provide an infinite-dimensional variational calculus on the Wiener space and further extended to other spaces. In this work, we develop such one in two discrete frameworks. First, we equip any countable product of probability spaces with a discrete Dirichlet-Malliavin structure, consisting of a family of Malliavin operators (gradient, divergence, number operator), an integration by parts formula, and the induced Dirichlet forms. We get the analogues of the classical functional identities and retrieve the usual Poisson and Brownian Dirichlet structures as limits of our induced structures. We provide discrete Stein-Malliavin criterions for the Normal and the Gamma approximations. Second we study insider's trading in a ternary model, Iying on a three-points compound geometric process. We state a modified chaotic decomposition and define the geometric gradient and divergence operators as the annihilation and creation operators acting on it. We state a geometric Ocone-Karatzas formula. We express the insider's additional expected logarithmic utility in terms of relative entropy as in the continuous case

Abstract:
Considérant une suite de variables aléatoires non-dégénérées, indépendantes et de même loi, on s'intéresse au maximum des suites de sommes partielles pour des incréments dont la longueur est la partie entière de l'expression c log(n) + d log(log(n)), ou log désigne la fonction logarithme, c une constante strictement positive, d’une constante réelle et n la taille de l'échantillon. Ce genre de problème est directement lié aux lois de type Erdoes-Renyi-Shepp. A l'aide d'un théorème de grande déviation, nous montrons comment se comportent la limite en probabilité et les limites inferieures et supérieures presque sûres de la différence entre le maximum concerne et sa limite presque sure, en fonction de d. Les résultats obtenus sont alors appliqués à un processus de renouvellement et permettent de mettre en évidence la vitesse de convergence optimale du maximum et du minimum du processus pour des accroissements de type Erdoes-Renyi; le cas particulier du processus de poisson standard est explicite. Pour finir, considérant le cas particulier ou les variables aléatoires sont indépendantes, de loi normale centrée réduite, on donne des bornes inferieures et supérieures de la distribution limite de la statistique de Shepp. Conformément aux résultats précédents, il apparait que le maximum de Shepp a un comportement limite en loi de nature oscillante, proche d'une loi de Gumel.

Abstract:
The monograph discusses the application of statistical criteria aimed at testing hypotheses about the absence of a trend in the analyzed samples. The rejection of such a hypothesis gives grounds to consider the analyzed data as samples of independent equally distributed random variables. We consider a set of special criteria aimed at testing such hypotheses, as well as a set of criteria for the uniformity of laws, the uniformity of averages and the uniformity of variances, which can also be used for these purposes. The disadvantages and advantages of various criteria are emphasized, the application of criteria in conditions of violation of standard assumptions is considered. Estimates of the power of the criteria are given, which allows you to navigate when choosing the most preferred criteria. Following the recommendations will ensure the correctness and increase the validity of statistical conclusions when analyzing data. It is intended for specialists who are interested in the application of statistical methods for the analysis of various aspects and trends of the surrounding reality and who are in contact with the processing of experimental results, the need for data analysis in their activities. It will be useful for engineers, researchers, specialists of various profiles (doctors, biologists, sociologists, economists, etc.) who face the need for statistical analysis of experimental results in their activities. It will also be useful for university teachers, graduate students and students.

Abstract:
The Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) method has been employed to extract the important signatures of the random field presented in an engineering product or process. Our preliminary study found that coefficients of the signatures are statistically uncorrelated but may be dependent. In general, the statistical dependence of the coefficients is ignored in the random field characterization for probability analysis and design. This paper thus proposes an effective approach to characterize the random field for probability analysis and design while accounting for the statistical dependence among the coefficients. The proposed approach is composed of two technical contributions. The first contribution is to develop a generic approximation scheme of random field as a function of the most important field signatures while preserving prescribed approximation accuracy. The coefficients of the signatures can be modeled as random field variables and their statistical properties are identified using the Chi-Square goodness-of-fit test. Second, the Rosenblatt transformation is employed to transform the statistically dependent random field variables into statistically independent random field variables. There exist so many transformation sequences when the number of random field variables becomes large. It was found that an improper selection of a transformation sequence may introduce high nonlinearity into system responses, which causes inaccuracy in probability analysis and design. Hence, a novel procedure is proposed for determining an optimal transformation sequence that introduces the least degree of nonlinearity to the system response after the Rosenblatt transformation. The proposed random field characterization can be integrated with one of the advanced probability analysis methods, such as the Eigenvector Dimension Reduction (EDR) method, Polynomial Chaos Expansion (PCE) method, etc. Three structural examples including a Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) bistable mechanism are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The results show that the statistical dependence in random field characterization cannot be neglected for probability analysis and design. Moreover, it is shown that the proposed random field approach is very accurate and efficient.

Abstract:
Independent and small scale product recovery facilities (PRFs) often struggle to achieve profits under inconsistent inflows of discarded products and varying demand patterns for remanufactured products. Inconsistent inflows coupled with the varying demand cause undue fluctuations in inventory levels and holding costs. PRFs can leverage the inventory levels by posting appropriate prices for remanufactured products and procuring the right quantity of discarded products. This work determines the optimal prices of remanufactured products and the optimal procurement quantity of discarded products when (a) PRFs passively accept and proactively acquire discarded products, (b) demand for remanufactured products is stochastic, and (c) backlogging of demand is permitted. The stochastic demand is modeled to consist of an additive random variable. Optimal solutions are established when the additive random variable follows a generic probability distribution.

Abstract:
So far manufacturing tolerance variability over samples has been widely considered in many engineering design problems. Traditionally the tolerance variability is modeled as a spatially independent random parameter although the variability is a function of spatial variables (x, y, and z) in many engineering applications. Little attention has been paid to spatial variability (or random field) in manufacturing and operational conditions, which may dominantly affect system performances in smaller scale applications. This paper presents an effective approach to characterize a random field for probability analysis and design. The Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) method is employed to extract the important signatures of the random field over product samples. A normalized posteriori error is defined to automatically decide the minimal number of the important signatures while preserving a prescribed accuracy in approximating the random field. The random projected values of the spatial variability over the samples onto each important signature are modeled as a random parameter. The signatures and corresponding random parameters are thus used for modeling the random field. A Chi-Squae goodness-of-fit test is used for determining statistical models of random parameters. This proposed approach can facilitate to characterize the random field for probability analysis and design. By modeling the random field with the most significant random signatures, the Eigenvector Dimension Reduction (EDR) method can be employed for probability analysis because of its relatively high efficiency and accuracy. Two examples (one beam and Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) bistable mechanism) are used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach while considering only a geometric random field. Compared to Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS), the proposed random field approach is appeared to be very accurate and efficient. Moreover, the results show that the random field variation cannot be neglected for probability analysis and design practices.

Abstract:
This paper is part of series on self-contained papers in which a large part, if not the full extent, of the asymptotic limit theory of summands of independent random variables is exposed. Each paper of the series may be taken as review exposition but specially as a complete exposition expect a few exterior resources. For graduate students and for researchers (beginners or advanced), any paper of the series should be considered as a basis for constructing new results. The contents are taken from advanced books but the organization and the proofs use more recent tools, are given in more details and do not systematically follow previous one. Sometimes, theorems are completed and innovated

Abstract:
Across income groups and countries, the public perception of economic inequality and many other macroeconomic variables such as inflation or unemployment rates is spectacularly wrong. These misperceptions have far-reaching consequences, as it is perceived inequality, not actual inequality informing redistributive preferences. The prevalence of this phenomenon is independent of social class and welfare regime, which suggests the existence of a common mechanism behind public perceptions. We propose a network-based explanation of perceived inequality building on recent advances in random geometric graph theory. The literature has identified several stylised facts on how individual perceptions respond to actual inequality and how these biases vary systematically along the income distribution. Our generating mechanism can replicate all of them simultaneously. It also produces social networks that exhibit salient features of real-world networks; namely, they cannot be statistically distinguished from small-world networks, testifying to the robustness of our approach. Our results, therefore, suggest that homophilic segregation is a promising candidate to explain inequality perceptions with strong implications for theories of consumption behaviour.

Abstract:
Full information maximum likelihood (FIML) is an important approach to compensating for nonresponse in data analysis. Unfortunately, only a few software packages implement FIML and even fewer have the capability to compensate for missing not at random (MNAR) nonresponse. One of these packages is Statistical Innovations’ Latent GOLD; however, the user documentation for Latent GOLD provides no mention of this capability. The purpose of this paper is to provide guidance for fitting MNAR FIML models for categorical data items using the Latent GOLD 5.0 software. By way of comparison, we also provide guidance on fitting FIML models for nonresponse missing at random (MAR) using the methods of Fuchs (1982) and Fay (1986), who incorporated item nonresponse indicators within a structural modeling framework. We compare both FIML for MAR and FIML for MNAR nonresponse models for independent and dependent variables. Also, we provide recommendations for future applications of FIML using Latent GOLD.
