Perfect Sampling of Generalized Jackson Network
[article]
2016
arXiv
pre-print
We provide the first perfect sampling algorithm for a Generalized Jackson Network of FIFO queues under arbitrary topology and non-Markovian assumptions on the input of the network. ...
We assume (in addition to stability) that the interarrival and service times of customers have finite moment generating function in a neighborhood of the origin, and the interarrival times have unbounded ...
INTRODUCTION We present the first perfect sampling algorithm (i.e. unbiased sampling also known as exact simulation) for the steady-state of so-called Generalized Jackson Networks (GJNs). ...

Queueing systems
We also provide bounds on the sampling time of this new perfect sampling algorithm for acyclic or hyperstable networks. ...
We consider open Jackson networks with losses with mixed finite and infinite queues and analyze the efficiency of sampling from their exact stationary distribution. ...
Comparison with the classical perfect sampler As discussed earlier, our new algorithm allows for perfect sampling of Jackson networks with finite and infinite buffers. ...

Mining Genetic Epidemiology Data with Bayesian Networks Application to APOE Gene Variation and Plasma Lipid Levels
2005
Journal of Computational Biology
We have applied Belief networks to SNP variation in the human APOE gene and plasma apolipoprotein E levels from two samples: 702 African-Americans from Jackson, MS, and 854 non-Hispanic whites from Rochester ...
Twenty variable sites in the APOE gene were genotyped in both samples. In Jackson, MS, SNPs 4036 and 4075 were identified to influence plasma apoE levels. ...
