Attainability for Markov and Semi-Markov Chains
When studying Markov chain models and semi-Markov chain models, it is useful to know which state vectors n, where each component ni represents the number of entities in the state Si, can be maintained or attained.

The extremes of a univariate Markov chain with regularly varying stationary marginal distribution and asymptotically linear behavior are known to exhibit a multiplicative random walk structure called the tail chain. In this paper we extend this fact to Markov chains with multivariate regularly varying marginal distributions in R

Recombination: A family of Markov chains for redistricting [PDF]
Redistricting is the problem of partitioning a set of geographical units into a fixed number of districts, subject to a list of often-vague rules and priorities.

Fusing Similarity Models with Markov Chains for Sparse Sequential Recommendation [PDF]
Predicting personalized sequential behavior is a key task for recommender systems. In order to predict user actions such as the next product to purchase, movie to watch, or place to visit, it is essential to take into account both long-term user ...

Putting Markov Chains Back into Markov Chain Monte Carlo [PDF]
Markov chain theory plays an important role in statistical inference both in the formulation of models for data and in the construction of efficient algorithms for inference. The use of Markov chains in modeling data has a long history, however the use of Markov chain theory in developing algorithms for statistical inference has only become popular ...

Metastable Markov chains [PDF]
In this paper, we discuss the dynamics of metastable systems. Such systems exhibit interesting long-living behaviors from which they are guaranteed to inevitably escape (e.g., eventually arriving at a distinct failure or success state). At the heart of this work, we emphasize (1) that for our goals, hybrid systems can be approximated as Markov Decision

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 ...

CLTs and asymptotic variance of time-sampled Markov chains [PDF]
For a Markov transition kernel P and a probability distribution μ on nonnegative integers, a time-sampled Markov chain evolves according to the transition kernel Pμ = Σkμ(k)Pk.

A Definition Scheme for Quantitative Bisimulation [PDF]
FuTS, state-to-function transition systems are generalizations of labeled transition systems and of familiar notions of quantitative semantical models as continuous-time Markov chains, interactive Markov chains, and Markov automata.
