The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract Identification of firefighting strategies (i.e., which endangered units to suppress or cool first) in chemical and process plants falls under the domain of multi‐objective decision‐making (MODM), where not only the safety and integrity of the affected process plant but also the safety of on‐site and off‐site vulnerable targets matter.

Portfolio optimization by applying Markov chains [PDF]
Anali Ekonomskog fakulteta u Subotici, 2018 Since one of the main problems in today's economy is 'conquering the market' or, in other words, finding the best way to predict price movements and receive expected rates of return, this paper will deal with the portfolio optimization in the Belgrade ...

A hidden Markov model and reinforcement learning‐based strategy for fault‐tolerant control
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract This study introduces a data‐driven control strategy integrating hidden Markov models (HMM) and reinforcement learning (RL) to achieve resilient, fault‐tolerant operation against persistent disturbances in nonlinear chemical processes. Called hidden Markov model and reinforcement learning (HMMRL), this strategy is evaluated in two case studies

Products of stochastic matrices and applications
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1989 This paper deals with aspects of the limit behaviour of products of nonidentical finite or countable stochastic matrices (Pn). Applications are given to nonhomogeneous Markov models as positive chains, some classes of finite chains considered by Doeblin ...

Restricted Tweedie stochastic block models
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract The stochastic block model (SBM) is a widely used framework for community detection in networks, where the network structure is typically represented by an adjacency matrix. However, conventional SBMs are not directly applicable to an adjacency matrix that consists of nonnegative zero‐inflated continuous edge weights.

An extension of Peskun ordering to continuous time Markov chains [PDF]
Peskun ordering is a partial ordering defined on the space of transition matrices of discrete time Markov chains. If the Markov chains are reversible with respect to a common stationary distribution "greek Pi", Peskun ordering implies an ordering on the ...

Hidden Markov graphical models with state‐dependent generalized hyperbolic distributions
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract In this article, we develop a novel hidden Markov graphical model to investigate time‐varying interconnectedness between different financial markets. To identify conditional correlation structures under varying market conditions and accommodate shape features embedded in financial time series, we rely upon the generalized hyperbolic family of ...

A goodness‐of‐fit test for regression models with discrete outcomes
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract Regression models are often used to analyze discrete outcomes, but classical goodness‐of‐fit tests such as those based on the deviance or Pearson's statistic can be misleading or have little power in this context. To address this issue, we propose a new test, inspired by the work of Czado et al.

Invariant Measure and Universality of the 2D Yang–Mills Langevin Dynamic
Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We prove that the Yang–Mills (YM) measure for the trivial principal bundle over the two‐dimensional torus, with any connected, compact structure group, is invariant for the associated renormalised Langevin dynamic. Our argument relies on a combination of regularity structures, lattice gauge‐fixing and Bourgain's method for invariant measures ...

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ab initio path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulations constitute the gold standard for the estimation of a broad range of equilibrium properties of a host of interacting quantum many‐body systems spanning a broad range of conditions from ultracold atoms to warm dense quantum plasmas.
