Risk theory is mainly concerned with ruin probability, and a tight bound for ruin probability is the best for practical use. This paper presents a discrete time risk model with stochastic in- vestment return. Conditional expectation properties and martingale inequalities are used to obtain both ex- ponential and non-exponential upper bounds for the ruin probability.展开更多

It is shown that normality of the distribution of covariate is a necessary and sufficient condition for the equivalence. Therefore, testing for lack-of-fit in linear errors-in-variables model can be converted into testing for it in the corresponding ordinary linear model under normality assumption. A test of score type is constructed and the limiting chi-squared distribution is derived under the null hypothesis. Furthermore, we discuss the power of the test and the choice of the weight function involved in the test statistic.展开更多

It is pointed out that COG method, a defuzzification technique used commonly in fuzzy systems, is reasonable and is the optimal method in the sense of mean square. Based on different fuzzy implication operators, several typical probability distributions such as Zadeh distribution, Mamdani distribution, Lukasiewicz distribution, etc, are given. Those distributions act as "inner kernels" of fuzzy systems. Furthermore, by some properties of probability distributions of fuzzy systems, it is also demonstrated that CRI method, proposed by Zadeh, for constructing fuzzy systems is basically reasonable and effective. Besides, the special action of uniform probability distributions in fuzzy systems is characterized. Finally, the relationship between CRI method and triple I method is discussed. In the sense of construction of fuzzy systems, when restricting three fuzzy implication operators in triple I method to the same operator, CRI method and triple I method may be related in the following three basic ways: 1) Two methods are equivalent; 2) the latter is a degeneration of the former; 3) the latter is trivial whereas the former is not. When three fuzzy implication operators in triple I method are not restricted to the same operator, CRI method is a special case of triple I method; that is, triple I method is a more comprehensive algorithm. Since triple I method has a good logical foundation and comprises an idea of optimization of reasoning, triple I method will possess a beautiful vista of application.展开更多

It is shown that normality of the distribution of covariate is a necessary and sufficient condition for the equivalence. Therefore, testing for lack-of-fit in linear errors-in-variables model can be converted into testing for it in the corresponding ordinary linear model under normality assumption. A test of score type is constructed and the limiting chi-squared distribution is derived under the null hypothesis.
