Market reaction to a bid-ask spread change: a power-law relaxation dynamics.
2009
We study the relaxation dynamics of the bid-ask spread and of the midprice after a sudden variation of the spread in a double auction financial market. We find that the spread decays as a power law to its normal value. We measure the price reversion dynamics and the permanent impact, i.e., the long-time effect on price, of a generic event altering the spread and we find an approximately linear relation between immediate and permanent impact. We hypothesize that the power-law decay of the spread is a consequence of the strategic limit order placement of liquidity providers. We support this hypothesis by investigating several quantities, such as order placement rates and distribution of price…
Theory of Heterogeneous Circuits With Stochastic Memristive Devices
2022
We introduce an approach based on the Chapman-Kolmogorov equation to model heterogeneous stochastic circuits, namely, the circuits combining binary or multi-state stochastic memristive devices and continuum reactive components (capacitors and/or inductors). Such circuits are described in terms of occupation probabilities of memristive states that are functions of reactive variables. As an illustrative example, the series circuit of a binary memristor and capacitor is considered in detail. Some analytical solutions are found. Our work offers a novel analytical/numerical tool for modeling complex stochastic networks, which may find a broad range of applications.
Modelling of non-stationary mobile radio channels using two-dimensional brownian motion processes
2013
The interdisciplinary idea of this paper is to employ a two-dimensional (2D) Brownian motion (BM) process to model non-stationary mobile fading channels. It is assumed that the mobile station (MS) starts moving from a fixed point along a random path in the 2D plane. We model such a moving scenario by a 2D BM process, in which the variance of the process determines the deviation of the MS from its starting point. The propagation area is modelled by a non-centred one-ring scattering model, where the local scatterers are uniformly distributed on a ring centred not necessarily on the MS. The random movement of the MS in the proposed scattering model results in local angles-of-arrival (AOAs) and…
Online Estimation of Discrete Densities
2013
We address the problem of estimating a discrete joint density online, that is, the algorithm is only provided the current example and its current estimate. The proposed online estimator of discrete densities, EDDO (Estimation of Discrete Densities Online), uses classifier chains to model dependencies among features. Each classifier in the chain estimates the probability of one particular feature. Because a single chain may not provide a reliable estimate, we also consider ensembles of classifier chains and ensembles of weighted classifier chains. For all density estimators, we provide consistency proofs and propose algorithms to perform certain inference tasks. The empirical evaluation of t…
Multiscale Information Storage of Linear Long-Range Correlated Stochastic Processes
2019
Information storage, reflecting the capability of a dynamical system to keep predictable information during its evolution over time, is a key element of intrinsic distributed computation, useful for the description of the dynamical complexity of several physical and biological processes. Here we introduce a parametric approach which allows one to compute information storage across multiple timescales in stochastic processes displaying both short-term dynamics and long-range correlations (LRC). Our analysis is performed in the popular framework of multiscale entropy, whereby a time series is first "coarse grained" at the chosen timescale through low-pass filtering and downsampling, and then …
Information-based detection of nonlinear Granger causality in multivariate processes via a nonuniform embedding technique
2010
We present an approach, framed in information theory, to assess nonlinear causality between the subsystems of a whole stochastic or deterministic dynamical system. The approach follows a sequential procedure for nonuniform embedding of multivariate time series, whereby embedding vectors are built progressively on the basis of a minimization criterion applied to the entropy of the present state of the system conditioned to its past states. A corrected conditional entropy estimator compensating for the biasing effect of single points in the quantized hyperspace is used to guarantee the existence of a minimum entropy rate at which to terminate the procedure. The causal coupling is detected acc…
Spike train statistics for consonant and dissonant musical accords in a simple auditory sensory model
2010
The phenomena of dissonance and consonance in a simple auditory sensory model composed of three neurons are considered. Two of them, here so-called sensory neurons, are driven by noise and subthreshold periodic signals with different ratio of frequencies, and its outputs plus noise are applied synaptically to a third neuron, so-called interneuron. We present a theoretical analysis with a probabilistic approach to investigate the interspike intervals statistics of the spike train generated by the interneuron. We find that tones with frequency ratios that are considered consonant by musicians produce at the third neuron inter-firing intervals statistics densities that are very distinctive fro…
Uncertainty quantification analysis of the biological Gompertz model subject to random fluctuations in all its parameters
2020
[EN] In spite of its simple formulation via a nonlinear differential equation, the Gompertz model has been widely applied to describe the dynamics of biological and biophysical parts of complex systems (growth of living organisms, number of bacteria, volume of infected cells, etc.). Its parameters or coefficients and the initial condition represent biological quantities (usually, rates and number of individual/particles, respectively) whose nature is random rather than deterministic. In this paper, we present a complete uncertainty quantification analysis of the randomized Gomperz model via the computation of an explicit expression to the first probability density function of its solution s…
The interrelation between stochastic differential inclusions and set-valued stochastic differential equations
2013
Abstract In this paper we connect the well established theory of stochastic differential inclusions with a new theory of set-valued stochastic differential equations. Solutions to the latter equations are understood as continuous mappings taking on their values in the hyperspace of nonempty, bounded, convex and closed subsets of the space L 2 consisting of square integrable random vectors. We show that for the solution X to a set-valued stochastic differential equation corresponding to a stochastic differential inclusion, there exists a solution x for this inclusion that is a ‖ ⋅ ‖ L 2 -continuous selection of X . This result enables us to draw inferences about the reachable sets of solutio…
A novel strategy for solving the stochastic point location problem using a hierarchical searching scheme
2014
Stochastic point location (SPL) deals with the problem of a learning mechanism (LM) determining the optimal point on the line when the only input it receives are stochastic signals about the direction in which it should move. One can differentiate the SPL from the traditional class of optimization problems by the fact that the former considers the case where the directional information, for example, as inferred from an Oracle (which possibly computes the derivatives), suffices to achieve the optimization-without actually explicitly computing any derivatives. The SPL can be described in terms of a LM (algorithm) attempting to locate a point on a line. The LM interacts with a random environme…
