Prior to beginning work on this discussion, please read the article by Hayley Peterson, 15 Companies That Are Defying the Retail Meltdown by Opening Hundreds of New Stores (Links to an external site.). While many retailers are closing stores, some are rapidly building new locations, with at least one—Dollar General (NYSE: DG)—adding as many as … Read more
Consider the following scenario: The senior systems analyst has tasked you to conduct a briefing on the different types of firewalls. In this briefing, you must show a diagram of where on the LAN the firewalls are placed on the network. Utilize the following guidelines to create your PowerPoint presentation: One slide will consist of … Read more
In this paper, you need to do a Mathematical exploration. The report is on golden ratio; In which you link geometry and 2-3 other maths topics for a good exploration. Use the IB mathematics book for that. I have attached examples you may use same the concept but don’t copy. You need to have a … Read more
(Auxiliary Functions and Moments). For a random variable X, the characteristic function E(eitX) always exists since eitX is a bounded random variable (with complex values). The moment generating function E(etx) only exists if X has moments of all orders and those moments do not grow too fast. a) If Z is Gaussian with mean 0 and … Read more
(A Box Calculus Verification). The purpose of this exercise is to generalize and unify the calculations we made for functions of Brownian motion with drift and geometric Brownian motion. It provides a proof of the validity of the box calculus for processes that are functions of Brownian motion and time. A) Let Xt = f(t, Bt), … Read more
Apply Student t regression (Section 5.7) to the stack loss data in Example 4.4, with degrees of freedom ν an unknown. Lange et al. (1989) consider these data under normal linear regression and Student regression and show support for the latter. In fact they report an estimate ν = 1.1. data, also much analysed, illustrate … Read more
In Example 6.1 use a likelihood calculation and derive the posterior mean of the likelihood and deviance. Use the AIC and BIC criteria to compare solutions C = 1, 2, 3, 4. In Example 6.1 obtain the posterior probabilities under C = 3 that individual cases belong to different groups. These are averages over iterations … Read more
In Example 7.5 (attitudes to working mothers) compare inferences from the residuals Wi − Xiβ with those based on Monte Carlo estimates of the conditional predictive ordinates (harmonic means of the sampled normal likelihoods for each subject). In Example 7.5 apply an ordered logistic model by data augmentation by direct sampling from a logistic and by … Read more
