What is the difference between all types of Markov Chains?
Apr 25, 2017 · A Markov process is basically a stochastic process in which the past history of the process is irrelevant if you know the current system state. In other words, all information about …
what is the difference between a markov chain and a random walk?
Jun 17, 2022 · Then it's a Markov Chain . If you use another definition : From the first line of each random walk and Markov Chain , I think a Markov chain models a type of random walk , but it …
Aperiodicity of a Markov chain - Mathematics Stack Exchange
Jan 1, 2023 · For two states $x,y$ in $E$, let $p^n (x,y)$ denote the $n$ -step Markov chain transition probability from $x$ to $y$. Then the period of a point $x$ is the greatest common …
What is a Markov Chain? - Mathematics Stack Exchange
Jul 23, 2010 · 7 Markov chains, especially hidden Markov models are hugely important in computation linguistics. A hidden Markov model is one where we can't directly view the state, …
reference request - What are some modern books on Markov …
I would like to know what books people currently like in Markov Chains (with syllabus comprising discrete MC, stationary distributions, etc.), that contain many good exercises. Some such book …
Prove that if $X\to Y\to Z$ is a Markov chain, then $I (X;Z)\le I (X;Y)$
Almost, but you need "greater than or equal to." We have: $$ H (X|Y) = H (X|Y,Z) \leq H (X|Z) $$ where the first equality is from the Markov structure and the final inequality is because …
Why Markov matrices always have 1 as an eigenvalue
Now in markov chain a steady state vector ( when effect multiplying or any kind of linear transformation on prob state matrix yield same vector) : qp=q where p is prob state transition …
Example of a stochastic process which does not have the Markov …
Even stochastic processes arising from Newtonian physics don't have the Markov property, because parts of the state (say, microscopic degrees of freedom) tend not to be observed or …
Generalisation of the Markov property to stopping times
Aug 1, 2023 · So apparently it is a different way of generalising the weak Markov property. Broadly speaking, I would like to know whether this property ($\star$) has a name and under …
