On an Erlang(2) Process with Dependence Structure between Interclaim Arrivals and Claim Sizes

Qiao Li & Zhenhua Bao · Asian Journal of Probability and Statistics · 2022

This paper considers an extension to the classical compound Poisson risk model for which an Erlang(2) process is utillized to the dependence structure between the claim sizes and interclaim times. In this framework, we derive the Lundberg generalised equation and the number of it...

The Influence of Measurement Errors on Generalized Estimator of Population Mean

Okafor, Ikechukwu Boniface, Onyeka Aloysius Chijioke, C. J. Ogbonna, Izunobi Chinyeaka Hostensia & Kiwu Lawrence Chizoba · Asian Journal of Probability and Statistics · 2022

This paper proposed a generalized estimator of population mean in the presence of correlated and uncorrelated measurement errors under simple random strategy.  Some known estimators belong to this class of proposed estimator.  Under the large sample approximation, the properties...

Integro-differential Equations for a Class of Delayed Renewal Risk Processes with Dependence

Shiyu Song · Asian Journal of Probability and Statistics · 2022

The Gerber-Shiu discounted penalty function is considered for a class of delayed renewal risk processes. In (Willmot 2004), special cases of the model include the stationary renewal risk model and the situation where the time until the first claim is exponentially distributed. In...

An A- Stable Block Integrator Scheme for the Solution of First Order System of IVP of Ordinary Differential Equations

Muhammad Abdullahi, Shamsuddeen Suleiman, Abdu Masanawa Sagir & Bashir Sule · Asian Journal of Probability and Statistics · 2022

In this article, we present an A- stable block integrator scheme for the solution of first order system of IVP of ordinary differential equations. The block scheme at a single integration step produces four approximate solution values of yn+1, yn+2, yn+3 and yn+4 at point xn+1, x...
