Description

Markov population stochastic processes are useful in describing repairman and logistics problems, networks of queues, pharmacological processes, and manpower situations. This paper considers statistical estimation problems arising for such mathematical models. Parameter estimation of an empirical Bayes nature, with limited shrinkage or discrepancy tolerant features is discussed and illustrated. Additional keywords: Maximum likelihood estimation; Pharmacology; Statistical inference; Statistical analysis. (Author)
