Previous research has shown that the flow of patients around departments of geriatric medicine and ex-patients in the community may be modelled by the application of a mixed exponential distribution where the number of terms in the mixture corresponds to the number of stages of patient care. A commo
We consider modelling time series of amounts which may be zero using a stochastic ®rst-order Markov model with mixed transition density having a discrete component at 0 and a continuous component describing non-zero amounts. The models extend chain-dependent stochastic models in the literature on mo
In this paper we report our development of a new class of hidden Markov models (HMMs) with each state characterized by a time series model which is non-stationary up to the second order. A closeform solution for the model parameter estimation is obtained based on the EM algorithm and on the matrix-c
