## Abstract We use the compound Poisson probability distribution to model the annual area burned by forest fires in the Canadian province of Ontario. Models for sums‐of‐random variables, relevant for modeling aggregate insurance claims and assessing insurance risk are also relevant in modeling aggr
A simpler model is proposed for estimating the frequency of any same-frequency words and identifying the boundary point between high-frequency words and lowfrequency words in a text. The model, based on a "maximum ranking method," assigns ranks to the words and estimates word frequency by the formul
Overlapping subsequences in a DNA sequence are not independent even if independence is supposed for the single nucleotides. Therefore the often used geometric distribution for the length of restriction fragments is not exact. The exact distribution of this random variable is derived for non-overlapp
