| dc.description.abstract | Given a sample from a compound Poisson distribution, we consider estimation of the corresponding rate parameter and base distribution. This has applications in insurance mathematics and queueing theory. We propose a plug-in type estimator that is based on a suitable inversion of the compounding operation. Asymptotic results for this estimator are obtained via a local analysis of the decompounding functional. | |
