چکیده

Our principal goal, in this section, is to quickly review the basic ideas and concepts of probability theory. For additional background and examples, please consult the text used for your prerequisite probability class and/or the following books: 1 What is Stochastic Modeling? Stochastic modeling concerns the use of probability to model real-world situations in which uncertainty is present. Since uncertainty is pervasive, this means that the tools of this course can potentially prove useful in almost all facets of one's professional life (and sometimes even in one's personal life):

A generalization of the probability that the commutator of two group elements is equal to a given element

The probability that the commutator of two group elements is equal to a given element has been introduced in literature few years ago. Several authors have investigated this notion with methods of the representation theory and with combinatorial techniques. Here we illustrate that a wider context may be considered and show some structural restrictions on the group.

Semantics of the Relative Belief of Singletons

The theory of evidence (ToE) [16] extends classical probability theory through the notion of belief function (b.f.), a mathematical entity which independently assigns probability values to sets of possibilities rather than single events. A belief function b : 2 → [0, 1] on a finite set (“frame”) Θ has the form b(A) = ∑ B⊆A mb(B) where mb : 2 Θ → [0, 1], is called “basic probability assignment” ...

Introduction: Probabilistic risk assessment using fault tree analysis is an effective tool to assess occurrence probability of hazardous events in chemical process industries. Unfortunately, the failure occurrence probability of the basic events are often not available in process industries. The aim of this study is how calculate basic events failure occurrence probability when basic events do ...

Improving Predictions of Derived Viewpoints in Multiple Viewpoints Systems

This paper presents and tests a method for improving the predictive power of derived viewpoints in multiple viewpoints systems. Multiple viewpoint systems are a well established method for the statistical modelling of sequential symbolic musical data. A useful class of viewpoints known as derived viewpoints map symbols from a basic event space to a viewpoint-specific domain. Probability estimat...

098418 PROBABILITY AND STOCHASTIC PROCESSES Large Scale Dynamics of Interacting Particles

Principal references for the main body of the course are lecture notes [6, 1] and monographs [2, 5]. First several weeks, however, will be devoted to a preliminary material including: (1) Stochastic calculus of continuous time Markov chains [4]. (2) Elements of interacting particle systems [3]. I shall assume some elementary knowledge of Probability theory, specifically basic fact about marting...
