The paper yields an investigation of the set of all finite measures on the product space with given difference of marginals. Extremal points of this set are characterized and constructed. Sets of uniqueness are studied in the relation to marginal problem. In the optimization problem the support of the optimal measure is described for a class of cost functions. In an example the optimal value is reached by an unbounded sequence of measures.
Doubly stochastic point processes driven by non-Gaussian Ornstein–Uhlenbeck type processes are studied. The problem of nonlinear filtering is investigated. For temporal point processes the characteristic form for the differential generator of the driving process is used to obtain a stochastic differential equation for the conditional distribution. The main result in the spatio-temporal case leads to the filtering equation for the conditional mean.
-statistics of spatial point processes given by a density with respect to a Poisson process are investigated. In the first half of the paper general relations are derived for the moments of the functionals using kernels from the Wiener-Itô chaos expansion. In the second half we obtain more explicit results for a system of -statistics of some parametric models in stochastic geometry. In the logarithmic form functionals are connected to Gibbs models. There is an inequality between...
The paper deals with Cox point processes in time and space with Lévy based driving intensity. Using the generating functional, formulas for theoretical characteristics are available. Because of potential applications in biology a Cox process sampled by a curve is discussed in detail. The filtering of the driving intensity based on observed point process events is developed in space and time for a parametric model with a background driving compound Poisson field delimited by special test sets. A...
In the paper asymptotic properties of functionals of stationary Gibbs particle processes are derived. Two known techniques from the point process theory in the Euclidean space are extended to the space of compact sets on equipped with the Hausdorff metric. First, conditions for the existence of the stationary Gibbs point process with given conditional intensity have been simplified recently. Secondly, the Malliavin-Stein method was applied to the estimation of Wasserstein distance between the...
The paper concerns estimation of anisotropy of planar fibre systems using the relation between the rose of directions and the rose of intersections. The discussion about the properties of the Steiner compact estimator is based on both theoretical and simulation results. The approach based on the distribution of the Prokhorov distance between the estimated and true rose of directions is developed. Finally the curved test systems are investigated in both Fourier and Steiner compact analysis of anisotropy....
The paper considers the problem of estimating the risk of a tick-borne disease in a given region. A large set of epidemiological data is evaluated, including the point pattern of collected cases, the population map and covariates, i.e. explanatory variables of geographical nature, obtained from GIS. The methodology covers the choice of those covariates which influence the risk of infection most. Generalized linear models are used and AIC criterion yields the decision. Further, an empirical Bayesian...
