High-order Markov chain models extend the conventional framework by incorporating dependencies that span several previous states rather than solely the immediate past. This extension allows for a ...
Abstract Let πœ‰ = {πœ‰π‘›}𝑛β‰₯β‚€ be a Markov chain defined on a probability space (Ξ©, β„±, β„™) valued in a discrete topological space 𝑆 that consists of a finite number of real 𝑑 × π‘‘ matrices. As usual, ...
We consider a singularly perturbed (finite state) Markov chain and provide a complete characterization of the fundamental matrix. In particular, we obtain a formula for the regular part simpler than a ...
Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Dr. Lance B. Eliot is a world-renowned AI scientist and consultant. In today’s column, I closely examine an innovative way of ...
What Is Markov Chain Monte Carlo? Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is a powerful technique used in statistics and various scientific fields to sample from complex probability distributions. It is ...
This paper outlines a way to estimate transition matrices for use in credit risk modeling with a decades-old methodology that uses aggregate proportions data. This methodology is ideal for credit-risk ...
What if you could predict the future, not with a crystal ball, but with math? In this guide, Veritasium explains how a 120-year-old concept called Markov chains has become a silent force shaping ...
