A New Quasi Poison-Lindley Distribution: Properties and Applications [PDF]
A new two parameter quasi Poisson Lindley (NQPL) distribution is derived by using the general approach of compounding. One parameter Lindley distribution and geometric distribution may be obtained as a particular case. The new distribution is shown to be

Local generalised method of moments: an application to point process-based rainfall models. [PDF]
Long series of simulated rainfall are required at point locations for a range of applications, including hydrological studies. Clustered point process-based rainfall models have been used for generating such simulations for many decades.

Stochastic Generalized Method of Moments [PDF]
The generalized method of moments (GMM) is a very popular estimation and inference procedure based on moment conditions. When likelihood-based methods are difficult to implement, one can often derive various moment conditions and construct the GMM objective function.

On Moving Object Reconstruction By Moments [PDF]
Recent research using statistical moments to describe moving shapes through an image sequence has led to an interest in reconstructing moving shapes from their moment description. This paper discusses how the moment description through a series of frames

On the Adequacy of Some Low-Order Moments Method to Simulate Certain Particle Removal Processes
The population balance is an indispensable tool for studying colloidal, aerosol, and, in general, particulate systems. The need to incorporate spatial variation (imposed by flow) to it invokes the reduction of its complexity and degrees of freedom.

Stein's method of moments [PDF]
Abstract Stein operators allow one to characterize probability distributions via differential operators. Based on these characterizations, we develop a new method of point estimation for marginal parameters of strictly stationary and ergodic processes, which we call Stein's Method of Moments

Consistency of a method of moments estimator based on numerical solutions to asset pricing models [PDF]
This paper considers the properties of estimators based on numerical solutions to a class of economic models. In particular, the numerical methods discussed are those applied in the solution of linear integral equations, specifically Fredholm equations ...
