An approach to parameter estimation in stochastic compartmental models with random rate coefficients (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1977)Several different techniques have been developed recently for estimating the transition rate coefficients in a stochastic compartmental model. Stochasticity has been present in these models in the transitions or in the ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)A general analytic form is derived for the transition probability, P[subscript 31](t), for two-compartments irreversible systems in which residency-time distributions are integral gammas. Some uses of these analytic forms ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)In this dissertation conditional least-squares estimation is applied to sampled continuous-time stochastic processes. The properties of estimators are studied through a theoretical development of their asymptotic behavior ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1981)This dissertation investigates the generation of a maximum likelihood estimation algorithm for the simultaneous solution of the order and the reflection coefficients of a reverberative, non-absorptive, horizontally stratified, ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1988)The primary objective of this research was to develop stochastic models of localized modulus of elasticity (MOE) and tensile strength (T) for laminating lumber. Detailed information on the variability of localized MOE and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1982)In this dissertation, the Pyke-Shorack theorem for linear rank statistics is generalized to include testing for the equality of the marginal distributions in a bivariate population. This generalization is used to develop ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1976)The cumulant generating functions of some multi-compartment stochastic models having time-dependent transition rates are derived. Using these, the first and second moments of the stochastic distributions are found. Under ...

(2009-05-15)Analyses are addressed for a number of problems in queueing systems and stochastic modeling that arose due to an investigation into techniques that could be used to approximate general closed networks. In Chapter II, a ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)The stochastic model of the allosterically regulated enzyme aspartate transcarbamylase uses a Markov process to describe the rate of reaction of substrate binding given various concentration levels. The enzymatic process ...
