Occurence Probabilities of Stochastic Paths
نویسندگان
چکیده
An analytical formula for the occurence probability of Markovian stochastic paths with repeatedly visited and/or equal departure rates is derived. This formula is essential for an efficient investigation of the trajectories belonging to random walk models and for a numerical evaluation of the ‘contracted path integral solution’ of the discrete master equation [Phys. Lett. A 195, 128 (1994)]. Typeset using REVTEX 1

Location Prediction Based on Transition Probability Matrices Constructing from Sequential Rules for Spatial-Temporal K-Anonymity Dataset
Spatial-temporal k-anonymity has become a mainstream approach among techniques for protection of users' privacy in location-based services (LBS) applications, and has been applied to several variants such as LBS snapshot queries and continuous queries. Analyzing large-scale spatial-temporal anonymity sets may benefit several LBS applications. In this paper, we propose two location prediction me...
متن کاملProbabilistic Pattern Matching and the Evolutionof Stochastic Regular
The use of genetic programming for probabilistic pattern matching is investigated. A stochastic regular expression language is used. The language features a statistically sound semantics, as well as a syntax that promotes eecient manipulation by genetic programming operators. An algorithm for eecient string recognition based on approaches in conventional regular language recognition is used. Wh...
متن کاملConstrained consumable resource allocation in alternative stochastic networks via multi-objective decision making
Many real projects complete through the realization of one and only one path of various possible network paths. Here, these networks are called alternative stochastic networks (ASNs). It is supposed that the nodes of considered network are probabilistic with exclusive-or receiver and exclusive-or emitter. First, an analytical approach is proposed to simplify the structure of t...
متن کاملL . Moench , O . Rose , eds . ON STEP SIZES , STOCHASTIC SHORTEST PATHS , AND SURVIVAL PROBABILITIES IN REINFORCEMENT LEARNING
Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a simulation-based technique useful in solving Markov decision processes if their transition probabilities are not easily obtainable or if the problems have a very large number of states. We present an empirical study of (i) the effect of step-sizes (learning rules) in the convergence of RL algorithms, (ii) stochastic shortest paths in solving average reward probl...
متن کاملNumerical modeling of economic uncertainty
Representation and modeling of economic uncertainty is addressed by different modeling methods, namely stochastic variables and probabilities, interval analysis, and fuzzy numbers, in particular triple estimates. Fo-cusing on discounted cash flow analysis numerical results are presented, comparisons are made between alter-native modeling methods, and characteristics of the methods are discussed.
