Discrete Time Markov Processes

چکیده

What follows is a quick survey of the main ingredients in the theory of discrete-time Markov processes. It is a birds' view, rather than the deenitive \state of the art." To maximize accessibility, the nomenclature of mathematical probability is avoided, although rigor is not sacriiced. To compensate, examples (and counterexamples) abound and the bibliography is annotated. Relevance to control is discussed in x8.

Arrival probability in the stochastic networks with an established discrete time Markov chain

The probable lack of some arcs and nodes in the stochastic networks is considered in this paper, and its effect is shown as the arrival probability from a given source node to a given sink node. A discrete time Markov chain with an absorbing state is established in a directed acyclic network. Then, the probability of transition from the initial state to the absorbing state is computed. It is as...

Markov Chain Anticipation for the Online Traveling Salesman Problem by Simulated Annealing Algorithm

The arc costs are assumed to be online parameters of the network and decisions should be made while the costs of arcs are not known. The policies determine the permitted nodes and arcs to traverse and they are generally defined according to the departure nodes of the current policy nodes. In on-line created tours arc costs are not available for decision makers. The on-line traversed nodes are f...

On $L_1$-weak ergodicity of nonhomogeneous continuous-time Markov‎ ‎processes

‎In the present paper we investigate the $L_1$-weak ergodicity of‎ ‎nonhomogeneous continuous-time Markov processes with general state‎ ‎spaces‎. ‎We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for such‎ ‎processes to satisfy the $L_1$-weak ergodicity‎. ‎Moreover‎, ‎we apply‎ ‎the obtained results to establish $L_1$-weak ergodicity of quadratic‎ ‎stochastic processes‎.

Time Delay and Data Dropout Compensation in Networked Control Systems Using Extended Kalman Filter

In networked control systems, time delay and data dropout can degrade the performance of the control system and even destabilize the system. In the present paper, the Extended Kalman filter is employed to compensate the effects of time delay and data dropout in feedforward and feedback paths of networked control systems. In the proposed method, the extended Kalman filter is used as an observer ...

Relative Entropy Rate between a Markov Chain and Its Corresponding Hidden Markov Chain

 In this paper we study the relative entropy rate between a homogeneous Markov chain and a hidden Markov chain defined by observing the output of a discrete stochastic channel whose input is the finite state space homogeneous stationary Markov chain. For this purpose, we obtain the relative entropy between two finite subsequences of above mentioned chains with the help of the definition of...

A Note on “The Optimal Stopping Time for Detecting Changes in Discrete Time Markov Processes” by Han and Tsung

We analyze the article by Han and Tsung (2009) “The Optimal Stopping Time for Detecting Changes in Discrete Time Markov Processes,” and demonstrate that it is seriously flawed.
