TAIL PROBABILITIES IN QUEUEING PROCESSES [PDF]
In the study of large scale stochastic networks with resource management, differential equations and mean-field limits are two key techniques. Recent research shows that the expected fraction vector (that is, the tail probability vector) plays a key role in setting up mean-field differential equations.

On Tail Probabilities for Martingales
Watch a martingale with uniformly bounded increments until it first crosses the horizontal line of height $a$. The sum of the conditional variances of the increments given the past, up to the crossing, is an intrinsic measure of the crossing time. Simple and fairly sharp upper and lower bounds are given for the Laplace transform of this crossing time ...

Lower tail probabilities for Gaussian processes [PDF]
The authors study the asymptotic behavior of lower tail probability for Gaussian random processes and their applications. Let \(X=(X_t)_{t\in S}\) be a real-valued centered Gaussian process indexed by \(S\). They first show a general estimate of the probability \(P(\sup_{t\in S}(X_t-X_{t_0})\leq x)\) as \(x\to 0\), with \(t_0\in S\) fixed, under mild ...

Data-Driven Latency Probability Prediction for Wireless Networks: Focusing on Tail Probabilities [PDF]
With the emergence of new application areas, such as cyber-physical systems and human-in-the-loop applications, there is a need to guarantee a certain level of end-to-end network latency with extremely high reliability, e.g., 99.999%.

Estimates on the tail probabilities of subordinators and applications to general time fractional equations [PDF]
In this paper, we study estimates on tail probabilities $\mathbb{P}(S_r \ge t)$ of several classes of subordinators under mild assumptions on the tail of its Levy measure.

On a new class of score functions to estimate tail probabilities of some stochastic processes with adaptive multilevel splitting. [PDF]
We investigate the application of the adaptive multilevel splitting algorithm for the estimation of tail probabilities of solutions of stochastic differential equations evaluated at a given time and of associated temporal averages.

Tail Asymptotics for a Retrial Queue with Bernoulli Schedule
In this paper, we study the asymptotic behaviour of the tail probability of the number of customers in the steady-state M/G/1 retrial queue with Bernoulli schedule, under the assumption that the service time distribution has a regularly varying tail ...

Bounds on tail probabilities for quadratic forms in dependent sub-gaussian random variables [PDF]
We show bounds on tail probabilities for quadratic forms in sub-gaussian non-necessarily independent random variables. Our main tool will be estimates of the Luxemburg norms of such forms. This will allow us to formulate the above-mentioned bounds. As an

Estimating Tail Probabilities of Random Sums of Phase-Type Scale Mixture Random Variables
We consider the problem of estimating tail probabilities of random sums of scale mixture of phase-type distributions—a class of distributions corresponding to random variables which can be represented as a product of a non-negative but otherwise ...

Estimating tail probabilities [PDF]
This paper investigates procedures for univariate nonparametric estimation of tail probabilities. Extrapolated values for tail probabilities beyond the data are also obtained based on the shape of the density in the tail. Several estimators which use exponential weighting are described.
