Information geometry of Markov Kernels: a survey

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2023
Information geometry and Markov chains are two powerful tools used in modern fields such as finance, physics, computer science, and epidemiology. In this survey, we explore their intersection, focusing on the theoretical framework.

Optimal choice of word length when comparing two Markov sequences using a χ 2-statistic

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2017
Background Alignment-free sequence comparison using counts of word patterns (grams, k-tuples) has become an active research topic due to the large amount of sequence data from the new sequencing technologies.

Polynomial Recurrence of Time-inhomogeneous Markov Chains

open access: yesAustrian Journal of Statistics, 2023
This paper is devoted to establishing conditions that guarantee the existence of a p-th moment of the time it takes for a timeinhomogeneous Markov chain to hit some set C.

Stochastic Processes with Expected Stopping Time [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science
Markov chains are the de facto finite-state model for stochastic dynamical systems, and Markov decision processes (MDPs) extend Markov chains by incorporating non-deterministic behaviors.

Multiplex Markov chains: Convection cycles and optimality

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2020
Multiplex networks are a common modeling framework for interconnected systems and multimodal data, yet we still lack fundamental insights for how multiplexity affects stochastic processes.

Markov Chains and reliability analysis for reinforced concrete structure service life [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials Research, 2014
From field studies and the literature, it was found that the degradation of concrete over time can be modelled probabilistically using homogeneous Markov Chains. To confirm this finding, this study presents an application of Markov Chains associated with

Strong Law of Large Numbers for Countable Markov Chains Indexed by an Infinite Tree with Uniformly Bounded Degree

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2014
We study the strong law of large numbers for the frequencies of occurrence of states and ordered couples of states for countable Markov chains indexed by an infinite tree with uniformly bounded degree, which extends the corresponding results of countable

Algorithms for Markov Binomial Chains [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science
We study algorithms to analyze a particular class of Markov population processes that is often used in epidemiology. More specifically, Markov binomial chains are the model that arises from stochastic time-discretizations of classical compartmental ...

Matrix Analysis for Continuous-Time Markov Chains

open access: yesSpecial Matrices, 2021
Continuous-time Markov chains have transition matrices that vary continuously in time. Classical theory of nonnegative matrices, M-matrices and matrix exponentials is used in the literature to study their dynamics, probability distributions and other ...
