Model Checking Markov Chains with Actions and State Labels [PDF]
In the past, logics of several kinds have been proposed for reasoning about discrete- or continuous-time Markov chains. Most of these logics rely on either state labels (atomic propositions) or on transition labels (actions).

Markov Model of Cyber Attack Life Cycle Triggered by Software Vulnerability [PDF]
Software vulnerability life cycles illustrate changes in detection processes of software vulnerabilities during using computer systems. Unfortunately, the detection can be made by cyber-adversaries and a discovered software vulnerability may be ...

Optimal control of multiple Markov-switching stochastic systems with numerical applications
In this article the authors set up an optimal control framework for a hybrid stochastic system with dual or multiple Markov switching diffusion processes, while Markov chains governing these switching diffusions are not identical as assumed in the ...

Continuous-time controlled Markov chains
The authors consider continuous-time Markov decision processes with a denumerable state space and Borel action space where the cost and the transition rates are allowed to be unbounded. In the class of deterministic stationary policies they first give very weak conditions under which the existence of \(\varepsilon\)-optimal \((\varepsilon\geq 0 ...

Imprecise continuous-time Markov chains
Continuous-time Markov chains are mathematical models that are used to describe the state-evolution of dynamical systems under stochastic uncertainty, and have found widespread applications in various fields. In order to make these models computationally tractable, they rely on a number of assumptions that may not be realistic for the domain of ...

Entropy rate of continuous-state hidden Markov chains [PDF]
We prove that under mild positivity assumptions, the entropy rate of a continuous-state hidden Markov chain, observed when passing a finite-state Markov chain through a discrete-time continuous-output channel, is analytic as a function of the transition ...

Event-Chain Monte Carlo: Foundations, Applications, and Prospects
This review treats the mathematical and algorithmic foundations of non-reversible Markov chains in the context of event-chain Monte Carlo (ECMC), a continuous-time lifted Markov chain that employs the factorized Metropolis algorithm. It analyzes a number

Fast-slow asymptotics for a Markov chain model of fast sodium current [PDF]
We explore the feasibility of using fast-slow asymptotic to eliminate the computational stiffness of the discrete-state, continuous-time deterministic Markov chain models of ionic channels underlying cardiac excitability. We focus on a Markov chain model
