in a finite stationary markov chain, transition probabilities may depend on some explanatoryvariables. a similar problem has been considered here. the corresponding posteriors are derived andinferences are done using these posteriors. finally, the procedure is illustrated with a real example.

this paper proposes an extension of markov chain model to characterize of geological formations and to make conditioning on any number of well data possible. in this study, lithofacies cycles of the amiran formation at type and pirshamsedin sections are examined by markov method and entropy analysis as well as field observations, and depositional environment has interpreted by proposed ideal se...

to evaluate and predict component-based software security, a two-dimensional model of software security is proposed by stochastic petri net in this paper. in this approach, the software security is modeled by graphical presentation ability of petri nets, and the quantitative prediction is provided by the evaluation capability of stochastic petri net and the computing power of markov chain. each...
