Some Dissimilarity Measures of Branching Processes and Optimal Decision Making in the Presence of Potential Pandemics

Some Dissimilarity Measures of Branching Processes and Optimal Decision Making in the Presence of Potential Pandemics

We compute exact values respectively bounds of "distances" - in the sense of (transforms of) power divergences and relative entropy - between two discrete-time Galton-Watson branching processes with immigration GWI for which the offspring as well as the immigration is arbitrarily Poisson-distributed (leading to arbitrary type of criticality). Implications for …
