Markov chain - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markov_chainA Markov chain or Markov process is a stochastic model describing a sequence of possible events in which the probability of each event depends only on the state attained in the previous event. A countably infinite sequence, in which the chain moves state at discrete time steps, gives a discrete-time Markov chain (DTMC). A continuous-time process is called a continuous-time …
Math 20 { Inequalities of Markov and Chebyshev
math.dartmouth.edu › ~m20x18 › markovtake large values, and will usually give much better bounds than Markov’s inequality. Let’s revisit Example 3 in which we toss a weighted coin with probability of landing heads 20%. Doing this 20 times, Markov’s inequality gives a bound of 1 4 on the probability that at least 16 ips result in heads. Using Chebyshev’s inequality, P(X 16 ...
