Contrary to standard statistical models, unnormalised statistical models only specify the likelihood function up to a constant. While such models are natural and popular, the lack of normalisation makes inference much more difficult. Here…

Motivated by Alain-Sol Sznitman's interlacement process, we consider the set of $\{0,1\}$-valued processes which can be constructed in an analogous way, namely as a union of sets coming from a Poisson process on a collection of sets. Our…

As it follows from the interrelation of Gamma and Poisson distributions the observed value of asymmetry for Poisson flows of events has the bias. The Monte Carlo experiment confirms the presence of this bias between the observed and initial…
