Factors affecting students tendency of Univercity students to Lecture Notes

Introduction: Many studies detected factors contributing to the students’ tendency to lecture notes. This study aimed at evaluating the factors affecting students tendency to lecture notes in Hormozgan University of Medical Sciences. Methods: In this descriptive study, 179 students from medicine, nursing & midwifery, health, and Paramedicine schools were selected through stratified random...

Waves in weakly random media: lecture notes for the Vienna Inverse Problems school

Wave propagation in complex media is an ubiquitous phenomenon – applications include light propagation through the atmosphere, underwater acoustic, tomography, and innumerable other ones. These problems may have very different specific details but possess one unifying feature: the precise knowledge of the medium between the wave source and the receiver is not and can not be known. This makes th...

Neural field modelling

The tools of dynamical systems theory are having an increasing impact on our understanding of patterns of neural activity. In these five lectures I will describe how to build tractable tissue level models that maintain a strong link with biophysical reality. These models typically take the form of nonlinear integro-differential equations. Their non-local nature has led to the development of a s...

Introductory lecture notes on MARKOV CHAINS AND RANDOM WALKS

Notes for Math 450 Lecture Notes 3

We introduce some of the standard parameters associated to a random variable. The two most common are the expected value and the variance. These are special cases of moments of a probability distribution. Before defining these quantities, it may be helpful to recall some basic concepts associated to random variables.
