Modelling the purchase dynamics of insurance customers using Markov chains
, 2005 This paper considers how various types of Markov chains can be used to help forecast the purchase behaviour of customers. The models are used in a case study of the purchase behaviour of the customers of a major insurance company.

Markov or not Markov - this should be a question [PDF]
Although it is well known that Markov process theory, frequently applied in the literature on income convergence, imposes some very restrictive assumptions upon the data generating process, these assumptions have generally been taken for granted so far ...

A coupled hidden Markov model for disease interactions [PDF]
, 2012 To investigate interactions between parasite species in a host, a population of field voles was studied longitudinally, with presence or absence of six different parasites measured repeatedly.

The Geography of Success: A Spatial Analysis of Export Intensity in the Italian Wine Industry
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper investigates the paradox of how Italy's fragmented, SME‐dominated wine industry achieves global export success. Moving beyond purely firm‐centric explanations, we test whether export intensity is spatially dependent, clustering geographically in regional ecosystems.

Stability conditions for a Piecewise Deterministic Markov Process [PDF]
In the present paper we study the stability of a threshold continuos-time model that belongs to the class of Piecewise Deterministic Markov Processes. We derive a sufficient condition on the coefficients of the model to ensure the exponential ergodicity ...

Vertical Price Transmission in Food Markets: New Evidence From Meta‐Analysis
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A growing body of empirical research has examined price dynamics along the food supply chain, yet findings remain heterogeneous and often conflicting. This study conducts a meta‐analysis of 140 studies, totaling 652 observations, to examine (1) the reported presence of asymmetric price transmission and (2) the reported direction of price ...

The Inspection of a Markov Process
Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1958 SUMMARY The output of a Markov process producing good and bad items in sequence is inspected for the bad items. A measure is proposed of the work involved, and the estimation required for this measurement is discussed.

Value of Information of Improved Traceability in Fresh Produce Markets
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Traceability plays an important role in promoting a safe food supply by fostering transparent information exchange along the food supply chain. New technological innovations have the potential to improve traceability outcomes, as greater transparency along the food supply chain can aid in pinpointing precise origins of the contamination ...

Construction and Stationary Distribution of the Fleming-Viot Process with Viability Selection [PDF]
This paper provides an explicit construction of the Fleming-Viot process with viability selection in a Bayesian nonparametric framework, and derives its stationary distribution. The measure-valued diffusion is obtained as the infinite population limit of
