Strong Stable Markov Chains Strong Stable Markov Chains N. V. Kartashov This monograph presents a new approach to the investigation of ergodicity and stability problems for homogeneous Markov chains with a discrete-time and with values in a measurable space. The main pur… OL10101446W
Discrete Markov chains Discrete Markov chains Vsevolod Ivanovich Romanovskiĭ The purpose of the present book is not a more or less complete presentation of the theory of Markov chains, which has up to the present time received a wide, though by no means complete, treatment. I… OL10512250W
Bayesian Methods in Finance Bayesian Methods in Finance Svetlozar T. Rachev Bayesian Methods in Finance provides a detailed overview of the theory of Bayesian methods and explains their real-world applications to financial modeling. While the principles and concepts explaine… OL15004359W
Entropy of hidden Markov processes and connections to dynamical systems Entropy of hidden Markov processes and connections to dynamical systems Brian Marcus,Tsachy Weissman,Karl Endel Petersen "Hidden Markov processes (HMPs) are important objects of study in many areas of pure and applied mathematics, including information theory, probability theory, dynamical systems and statistical physi… OL15920738W
Competitive Markov Decision Processes Competitive Markov Decision Processes Jerzy Filar This book is devoted to a unified treatment of Competitive Markov Decision Processes. It examines these processes from the standpoints of modeling and of optimization, providing newcomers to the fiel… OL19835692W
Controlled markov chains, graphs and hamiltonicity Controlled markov chains, graphs and hamiltonicity Jerzy A. Filar This manuscript summarizes a line of research that maps certain classical problems of discrete mathematics -- such as the Hamiltonian Cycle and the Traveling Salesman Problems -- into convex domains … OL19837762W
Fundamentals of Finslerian Diffusion with Applications Fundamentals of Finslerian Diffusion with Applications P. L. Antonelli This is the first text to be published on stochastic Finslerian geometry.The theory is rigorously presented and several applications in ecology, evolution and epidemiology are described. Amongst the … OL19851786W
Handbook of Markov Decision Processes Handbook of Markov Decision Processes Eugene A. Feinberg The theory of Markov Decision Processes - also known under several other names including sequential stochastic optimization, discrete-time stochastic control, and stochastic dynamic programming - stu… OL19854435W
Image Textures and Gibbs Random Fields Image Textures and Gibbs Random Fields Georgy L. Gimel'farb This book presents novel techniques for describing image textures. Contrary to the usual practice of embedding the images to known modelling frameworks borrowed from statistical physics or other doma… OL19856901W
Markov processes, Gaussian processes, and local times Markov processes, Gaussian processes, and local times Michael B. Marcus Two foremost researchers present important advances in stochastic process theory by linking well understood (Gaussian) and less well understood (Markov) classes of processes. It builds to this materi… OL19885845W
Simulation-Based Algorithms for Markov Decision Processes Simulation-Based Algorithms for Markov Decision Processes Hyeong Soo Chang Markov decision process (MDP) models are widely used for modeling sequential decision-making problems that arise in engineering, economics, computer science, and the social sciences. Many real-world… OL19902191W
