Consistency of Bayes factors for linear models
Elías Moreno, J. J. Serrano-Pérez, F. Torres-Ruiz
The quality of a Bayes factor crucially depends on the number of regressors, the sample size and the prior on the regression parameters, and hence it has to be established in a cas…
A Bertalanffy-Richards growth model perturbed by a time-dependent pattern, statistical analysis and applications
Antonio Di Crescenzo, Paola Paraggio, Francisco Torres-Ruiz
We analyze a modification of the Richards growth model by introducing a time-dependent perturbation in the growth rate. This modification becomes effective at a special switching t…
Inference of a Susceptible-Infectious stochastic model
Giuseppina Albano, Virginia Giorno, Francisco Torres-Ruiz
We consider a time-inhomogeneous diffusion process able to describe the dynamics of infected people in a susceptible-infectious epidemic model in which the transmission intensity f…
A hyperbolastic type-I diffusion process: Parameter estimation bymeans of the firefly algorithm
Antonio Barrera, Patricia Román-Román, Francisco Torres-Ruiz
A stochastic diffusion process, whose mean function is a hyperbolastic curve of type I, is presented. Themain characteristics of the process are studied and the problem of maximum…
Study of a general growth model
G. Albano, V. Giorno, P. Román-Román +1
We discuss a general growth curve including several parameters, whose choice leads to a variety of models including the classical cases of Malthusian, Richards, Gompertz, Logistic…
The Hubbert diffusion process: Estimation via simulated annealing and variable neighborhood search procedures. Application to forecasting peak oil production
Istoni da Luz Sant'Ana, Patricia Román-Román, Francisco Torres-Ruiz
Accurately charting the progress of oil production is a problem of great current interest. Oil production is widely known to be cyclical: in any given system, after it reaches its…
